View Full Version : Real Name / First Name
Don't know if this has been sugested before but could we have our real name or first name underneath our avatar (where our other details are), I know the names of a lot of people on here but when replying to new members who have names like supraowner76 etc it seems a bit strange when you start a reply Hi Supraowner76 instead of Hi Steve (or whatever).
I'm easy - most people know me as Animal anyway. If you shout Paul, far too many people turn round.
I wouldn't want to do this automatically as it goes against our privacy agreement, which is your name and address will only ever be used to send out requested club merchandise and will not be used for any other purpose.
You could change your profile text (Professional Gambler) to be your name.
It'd certainly help with organising group buys to have some kind of access to this information. I guess I can always annoy a moderator for it, but are they allowed to tell? Maybe not given the privacy comment above?

Mmmmmm, I could add it to my signature then I can leave my profile text as is :D

No Shit!!
I prefer to be called Havard anyway!!
H (Paul)
Could it not be optional, like the Country and Location below the Avatar is? That way you could put what you'd prefer people to call you, as opposed to it simply putting your first name up.
all my friends know me as guigsy anyway. if i was walking down the road as you shouted "Adam!" id look arround then think you must be shouting someone else. if u shouted Guigsy id be "who the fu*k are you?" :)

Basically as mawbs says, we have our privacy policy to ensure that we comply with the data protection act. We only use personal details for sending out the members packs when rrequested. We do not keep a database of members names or addresses. Best to keep it simple. :)
Of course you could type your name at the end of your post or incorporate your name into your sig?
