Historically, we've encouraged people to use real names, but that's withered as the Internet got waaaaaay too crowded. I would like to propose that we expect people to use precisely one name; pick a pseud, if you must, but stick to it.

So. Formal proposal: Add to Buffista etiquette the following: "One account per customer. Please don't set up multiple accounts under different names. Anybody showing up as a concept or any other abstract noun will be asked to prove it."

Not sure I agree, but I Second the Proposal.

hate them. multiple log-ins should only be for that thread with the role-playing thing.

I agree.

And I second. (Knowing full well that it might fuck up Sang Sacre in ways that might make some people angry. That's why we have Lightbulbs.)

This is a problem? Am I not paying attention again?

It's happening mostly in Bitches, I think.

Also, that doesn't include name changes for work purposes or changes to a RL name for those who become comfortable using it, righteo?

It's the same account with a name change on it, yes?

I second it also, although I don't care if someone shows up as an abstract noun. As long as it's a one to one mapping.

When someone's ducking under the radar (like vw did) or even constructing a Sang Sacre character, I don't care.

In fact, I'd also suggest a Sang Sacre exclusion, but the thread's been quiet for a while anyway. Still, it is neater that way in my head.

A Sang Sacre exclusion makes perfect sense to me; I just didn't think of it because I never bleed holy.

Also, Allyson, yes, you can still change your name; it's the single-account part that's important and if we get enough suggestions to make it to lightbulbs, I'll clarify that.

do we have enough seconds? I'll second.

That's three. We need four, right?
