Continued use of real names could prove hazardous to your account.

Is that against the rules? Or is it only where someone protests? For example, the example I used above: most everyone here knows mhking's name, and many refer to him that way. Is that against the rules?

Also - with regard to your admonition about personal attacks, some clarification may be helpful. Is calling someone "worse than Nazis" a personal attack?

How about disparaging the character of another FReeper?

Just curious - the application of that particular rule is one I've never quite been able to figure out, and it'd be easier to stay on the right side of the line if it were explained which slurs constitute "personal attacks" and which do not.

A/M, could you please clarify the rule on this? EV posted his full name a short time ago, discussing this same topic, right here. If a person reveals their name voluntarily, is its use by others an offense one can be banned or suspended for?
