I use my real name and I can understand and accept others that prefer to write under a nickname.Some may be shy,feel relaxed using a make believe name.Some are very clever,original and funny.
It is OK until the idea is abused,rudeness,racial remarks,using many names to aid promotion or strengthen a point of view not shared by others,it has all been tried since my short time with you all.There is of course always the minority that try and spoil a genuine discussion about any subject.Take great delight in scoring points and will put off the genuine interesting browser who do not post their views for fear of getting involved with these individuals.
All in all however it is great fun,I have had a lot of laughs.If I have asked for information sometimes it has been almost instantly supplied. I have gained a few friends made no enemies.You have put up with my ramblings. Thanks to the majority and thanks to the organisers ,who ever you are.
