> I know I am not typical in that my user name is my own name. Part of me cast off anonymity on the internet though if for no other reason to keep myself honest in my postings — a deterrent to allowing some kind of alter-ego to crap post and such. You goal seems noble and born of good faith. I'd go past that to suggest you meant 'positively' instead of honest, because honesty could be inferred. As a counterpoint (for a very diff use case), I ran a minecraft server and had to strongly encourage young players to anonymize themselves (starting with playernames) and to not share identifying info. I also explained I would only chat publicly because I was an adult and my chat logs were available to any parent who asked. Not quite the same thing but I was trying to example helpful boundaries. I never got any takers on the logs but doubt that bit ever got passed on.
