Personally I am sick of seeing users with random names. I'm not going to point any out.

examples are:

asdsadsdasddsa

or

21343241142341


Users with names like this should be told that they need to create a new account with an actual name, if they refuse then they should be automatically banned.

I know that sounds harsh, but it makes the site look sloppy. If users cant have a serious name, how can we take them serious as someone whom will actually use this site. Or as someone who will not spam.

Also all it take is for them to forget one letter in their name, and bam, They cant use their account anyway.

Something needs to be done.

Okay, Cholo, if your not willing to give up, then we can't settle this matter. I don't see how banning everybody who creates pointless names would help, it might even make AG harder to run.

The point is there isn't a huge abundance of randoms. I don't see them doing harm.

How many people with random names do you see active most days, and supporting the community?


um, ehem... *cough*none*cough*... unless owen*numbers* counts and _______________ counts...



And don't tell me that people with the name ___________________ (or random in any matter) could be there nickname. How would you pernounce ____________? lowdashlowdashlowdashlowdashlowdash?


So it's not their nickname. It's an online alias. __________________ is an extremely clever thing to come up with in the cyberworld.

As I said, tell them to make a new account with an actual name. Banning isn't the first move to make. But it would bring less spam and less cursing.

Less spam and less cursing? I don't see how that would happen, I can only see how that will increase.

6s could be their age, who knows?


Well if they are 6 years old, they are underage and breaking the rules of AG.

So it's not their nickname. It's an online alias. __________________ is an extremely clever thing to come up with in the cyberworld.


No... last I checked _______________________ isn't random at all.

Less spam and less cursing? I don't see how that would happen, I can only see how that will increase.


Why? Because we are getting rid of those who make Spam Names?

n actual name could be something in a different language and you wouldn't know it


Right cause ghghghghghghghghghghg means Steve in spanish.

OK you think all randoms are spammers. my proof! I went through a page of Comment on . Ball Reflexion. Out of 21 one word comments 2-3 were made by randoms. 2-3 cause one of them could be a nickname. I provided the link so you can check for yourself. I will find more and provided results later.
