I have no problem with people who I know better here calling me by my name. The sad part is I don't remember all of their first names hahaha. I'm not good with names.

Agreed on the suggestion that using other people's personal names in a public forum 'smacks of "cliqueiness"'. How is anyone else to understand who the comment is directed to, without having to uncertainly rely on whatever they can construct from the context?

For those who do/wish to use their real name, having it in your username is somewhat of a boon, because it circumvents this little snafu.
