Cerrax Posted March 25, 2007 Posted March 25, 2007 Okay so I joined the OCR group on Facebook, but I don't know anybody by their real names. This should probably go in off-topic huh? Quote
Old Man Time Posted March 25, 2007 Posted March 25, 2007 isnt there a discussion of this in the actual group? Quote

Airwalker Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 Matt Wattsyo You scared me for a second. I am a friend of somebody named Matt Watts that I met randomly in some political group on Facebook. I thought the world was really that small. But I suppose its all and well now that I know of two Matt Watts's on Facebook. Quote

djpretzel Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 Okay so I joined the OCR group on Facebook, but I don't know anybody by their real names.This should probably go in off-topic huh? Perhaps we should add "Real Name" as a user profile field; it'd be optional, obviously, but for things like this, very helpful... Thoughts? Quote
Decoy Octopus Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 Perhaps we should add "Real Name" as a user profile field; it'd be optional, obviously, but for things like this, very helpful...Thoughts? I know my friend criticizes OCR all the time because of how 'impersonal' it is. He feels that you can't have meaningful conversations when referring to someone only by their online moniker. Of course, who cares what he thinks... My point is, having the option to include your real name seems like a good idea to me... and would appease the naysayers... Quote

suzumebachi Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 Perhaps we should add "Real Name" as a user profile field; it'd be optional, obviously, but for things like this, very helpful...Thoughts? That's a hella good idea. It'd be cool if there was an option to display it under your handle as well. ie: Suzumebachi Tyberius Hunter Guenley Totally optional though. Quote
Decoy Octopus Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 Oh, Decoy Octopus, you are always so correct. Thanks. I try... Quote
Daniel Rydell Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 That's a great idea. However, if anyone's interested, my facebook is under DJ Carter Quote

atmuh Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 djp you have made some awesome little additions to the community as of late, like the youtube group and putting facebook in your profile real name is a GREAT idea methinks (also as a lil minor note let the compo admins edit their thread titles plz) :] Quote
djpretzel Posted March 27, 2007 Posted March 27, 2007 (also as a lil minor note let the compo admins edit their thread titles plz) :] Just as an FYI, this is a limitation of vB and, as I understand it, would grant the compo admins a lot of additional privileges they don't need and probably shouldn't have, otherwise I would've already done it.
