username/userid/nickname
Hi Tom and Doug.. after using the new forum for a few days, I like most of the features... especially the organization Something that has never appealed to me with these kinds of forums is the cryptic username... I certainly understand this kind of anonymity with some forums, but I really don't like on this forum. You are always guessing who wrote that post ... I understand that was somewhat the case with the old forum, but most folks had their real names in their profiles, so you could readily tell who was posting. It seems that is not the case here. Most people don't have any identity except their cryptic userid.. Nothing major, just some thoughts.

Re: username/userid/nickname
I agree Ron, we have nothing to hide in this forum. Most of us from the old page, know each other by name even if we have never met in person. After a while of reading each other, we get an idea of that persons abilities, personality, and a certain friendship develops, albeit by electronic communication.
