If you are and impostor, go for Facebook rather than Virtual worlds. <br /><br />I agree in all u say soror and also Miso. I dont understand that fixation in REAL NAMES. I spend a lot more bucks online as Mera Kranfel than my RL id.<br /><br />@Miso and @soror; "Not very sporting to fire on an unarmed opponent. I thought you were supposed to be good".

It is irrational after all.sororNishihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17385408562954387986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8590156455847470480.post-55249979119539414552011-07-11T20:15:10.678-07:002011-07-11T20:15:10.678-07:00I joined Google+ simply because two people had add...I joined Google+ simply because two people had added me to their Circle and I started receiving tons of emails from G+ whenever these people would post anything. <br /><br />I joined to be able to "set my message preferences" and uncheck every single notice, status update and whatnot, considering it as spam, as harassment and as information pollution; too much noise, not enough signal.<br /><br />Given the whipsaw back-and-forth on these "avatar names" policies in the last 24 hrs, I am quite happy to not have wasted time filling in profiles and etc to add to their database.<br /><br />As my avatar name is the name I plan to legally change my name to, what will G+ and the rest of them do then? Will they reinstate me after they have banned me? <br /><br />Again, my simple questions take on a much greater significance when viewed in these lights. If all they want is <i>data</i>, they'd get plenty enough from Miso Susanowa. You'd be able to see where I went, what I posted and perhaps what I bought also. I mean heck, you can tell what "miso susanowa" likes, and target ads to "miso susanowa" just as easily as you could to my IRS/Government ID/Name.<br /><br />The fact that there's some problem with tracking an obviously active and involved person on the net, using a consistent name known to the communities I frequent, makes me question the motivation of all this "we need real names" chanting. Don't you think so?Miso Susanowahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14628657533849686313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8590156455847470480.post-35358400659339178172011-07-11T20:13:02.611-07:002011-07-11T20:13:02.611-07:00Completely agree.

I quit FB about a year ago and I've just tried Plurk for a little while but felt swamped by stuff I mostly just don't need to know.Tsukihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01123381925392094673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8590156455847470480.post-75503715724145721882011-07-11T19:26:40.964-07:002011-07-11T19:26:40.964-07:00That is precisely why I have never had Facebook or...That is precisely why I have never had Facebook or Googlie-face-them-all.
