Every new thread seems to be W@nker this..or Bitch that...with wild accusations and inflammatory and cowardly, callous name calling and diatribe..
after all its just a game show..do people get this emotional over the Crystal Maze..?
How many ppl would here have the b@lls to use their real name...or use their real pic's..

..Removing the veil of anonymity typical to online dialogue will contribute to a more positive forum environment, promote constructive conversations. .
I'll start..Originally I was a sumptuous slice of white by Daily Bread..before I got into a very heated argument and became a piece of dry, flat toast.

I love this idea. Hate WoW, but love this.
I only ever use 1 user name anyhow, so it'll make no difference to me tbh.
it would help massively against the trolls, shills, and multiple accounts though.

Many of the larger number posters who've been on a wee while know each other by first names. By convention we seldom use them in the madhouse that is an ongoing BB forum. Wouldn't stop me telling a forum pal that I think their fave Ben is a complete twat.

I'd get on board with this.
Especially the photo thing.
If only to stop ******tards starting 'Rachael is ugly' and 'Josie is fat' threads. :sleep:

again, wouldnt affect me, I'm a stunner :joker:
I don't like this idea. Anyone who's an arse, ban 'em. Simple. No need to go to such great lengths to introduce a system that could compromise someone's safety. Do they not realise, that with someone's full name and general location they could find their home address and telephone number?

I'm sure this forum is about Big Brother not WoW.

i would rather stay as we are. I know a few peoples first names, and roughly where they are from. I don;t want to know much else as some of the posters in here are very young and I am not, I don;t want to appear to be some kind of predator!
I enjoy talking about BB and having a laugh but forums can be a bit dodgy with tpp much personal info about.
