I can't part with my internet name fully, I use it every where and kind of perfer it to my real name. But I don't have any problems about using them both at once

I thought this was a great idea when I heard the suggestion at PKGen, as well. But then I thought, "Oh dear... way more people know me as Muse!" I started introducing myself to people with my real name right away at the PKGen event, but I had a lot of people ask, "Can I still call you Muse?" And that is okay with me.  I will put my real name under my avatar, though, just to keep it consistent. It is a good idea.

I'm glad other people are catching onto this idea. Thanks for posting it up here, Mark!
I honestly know that there's nothing on my user profiles on different sites that I don't mind the world knowing.

Yes. All you'll find from what I post on forums is that I train parkour, and I'm a nerd. I'm up front about both of these things in real life as well.

I'm up front about both of these things in real life as well.  yes but you can also find where you train parkour. what state, what spot and at what time. this could be very useful to your stalker you waits for you to enter a back alley alone.  lol. even if you don't post it directly its pretty easy to figure out. besides if anyone really wanted to stalk/kidnap/kill you bad enough theres not much you could do to stop them.

I noticed Ryan and Chris from COPK changed theirs last month. I had already made a partial change over at HIpk, so making the change here = pretty easy.

I post all that already.  It is on the OSUPK facebook group, and will soon be on the Parkour Horizons website.

The only thing anyone would find out about me by knowing my full name and doing a google search is that I have an old elfwood art page, which has been updated maybe once in the past 3 years, so I'm not worried

For sure I'm not the only person who has brought up this idea. I have encountered this topic years ago on other forums I utilized. Here is a nice list of benefits someone put together that can be achieved by standing behind your real name rather than a nickname. Many of these are applicable to our own community. - One will take his time, contemplate, and think deeply before posting.
- We will know the level of the writer’s knowledge.
- There will be no hastiness or unnecessary rush in spreading things before confirming them and referring them to the people of knowledge.
- Writing under one’s real name will bring about a sense of responsibility and accountability for what is being written.
- It will reduce excessive writing and spreading of things devoid of benefit.
- It will restrict the writing and the offering of advice to the people of knowledge, and not just every Tom, Dick, and Harry will post.
- It will put forth the people of knowledge and make clear their true position and their true right and authority with regards to guidance, education, and criticism.
- It will allow the community to be seen in its beautiful form and complete shape, by way of knowing the narrators and their situations and personalities.
- We will be able to recognize the opposing ones, those who stubbornly resist (the correct path), and the liars. We will be able to confirm and verify reports if we know the individuals, but this ability will vanish or dwindle so long as we do not know them, or they are anonymous.
- There will be an increase in beneficial posts with knowledge, and weak posts will decrease.
- We will nobly remove ourselves from the ways of the biased partisans and people of secret movements and organizations, and we will oppose their stealth and hiding behind nicknames when their attributes become known.
- We will spread clarity and mutual truthfulness, two attributes that should be from the foremost attributes of the community.
