Re: Do people feel funny about others using their real names?

nah, no problem for me ,just a question of familiarity , though I have wondered (never having the chance to attend one) what do Accy web users call each other at the monthly meets , are name tags issued to first timers ? .....I suppose new attendees introduce themselves by their screen names .
Guess it depends how well you know the person , anytime I have used the PM feature I allways sign off with my "Christian/given" name and those who have PM'd me have done the the same.
Seems at times Accy web could come across as a bit 'incestuous' or 'mafia like' (kick one and your kicking twenty) or intimidating to a new user, but I put that down to the majority of users being familiar to other frequent users quirks, (wether they know them personnally or not) ,which is understandable, but its never come across as a problem for me , and new users allways seem to recieve a warm welcome.
