Handles = Real Name (not much here.... move along)

    Just a thing that has cropped up for me previously but more and more recently.

    Posters agreeing with someone's previous post but stating there agreement (or indeed dissent) with the posters real name. I guess there are a lot of folks who know posters by there real name in this burgeoning community but it tends to leave those out of the loop a bit bewildered as to who is being agreed with.

    I saw a post this morning which actually quoted the posters viewpoint and posted 'I agree.... real name.. and it made it much easier to follow the thread, although I will surely forget the name refers to if it is used as early as tomorrow. Do I just sit it out and hope to work out who is who eventually or is there a way to let folks know who is who

    Stuff like various heads up / tourney threads and indeed strategy threads tend to have posts like.... nice called freddy..... what did you have louis (names amended to protect the Innocent) tend to leave me thinking ..... who's what when then..... :confused:

    Like i said... not much here.... move along
