To me, it doesn’t really matter if use real names or not. I always use mine as you can tell from me email & IM & myspace & everything else. I personally think that if you are going to criticize, complain, or try to discredit someone you should at least be a big enough person to sign your real name to it. Some people I guess may feel otherwise but I do think the changes to this site are good thing.

Viewing this remark from the snapshot in my view, I'll disagree. I sincerely believe that some of the things that were said to me or about me wouldn't have been said face to face. Being 6' 4" and over 250 lbs I can assure you that many would have withheld such vile disrespect in a face to face meeting. I know, I have had the opportunity to meet up with some of them and they spoke and acted way more respectfully in person.

I believe Ron Dunlap's words ring quite true here.

He Stated:
I think people should be respected as long as they demonstrate having good intentions, that it shouldn't even factor into agreeing or disagreeing.

Very well said Ron!

I think the new Mater is going to be a much nicer place to visit, Thanks to J-rod and Shannon for doing it!

I understand, however, I was referring to myself. I was saying that the broad brush that had been use to basically say everyone not using their name wouldn't have posted the same...I was saying I would have...now I agree with you..I can think of some that wouldn't have

Well, I have to admit that I haven't seen any of what I'd call personal attacks on this new board so far.

Is it the use of actual names, the pain in the butt registration process, or requiring of a dollar to join?

(or all three?)
