The reason full names are asked for in these situations
Go back to the very old Full Count Board days (pre-Net 54) where that message board dissolved into a morass of name calling and the focus on vintage cards went away.
The rule, and it is in my opinion, is the posting of a real name if you make certain comments is one which has made this board stronger because if you say something you are, in a way, asked to back it up instead of just typing where no one knows who you are.
John, on this one, you frankly don't have a leg to stand on and there are ways to disguise your name with a symbol here and there. There are people on the board who do that which does help prevent the google searches. Look at how Vintage Vern and Brent G did their names as examples.
Regards
Rich
Who has always posted with his name on this board
