Duly noted, and we might change it (but will at least warn people).
In future, you will be able to have multiple characters per account and forums are "meta" re role-playing aspects of the game, so we decided to make the *account* and not the *character* that is doing the posting here.
What about an account level username which you could post under? I could also match your most active playername (if you wanted it to). Best of both worlds?
Or, allow the person to choose the playername they wish to post as. Maybe they have an evil persona and a good one and like to post on both sides :)
I'm just mulling this over, and while I wouldn't particularly want my real name visible to all, it IS good to be able to recognise my friends from Faceboke. However, as I haven't actually played at all yet, I don't know if I'll be able to find those friends within the game and collaborate with them, or randomly with other players.
Sorry if this is muddying the water, I'm just thinking out loud based on what little I know about Glitch so far.
Agreed, if anyone has time to just switch the forum display to our character names (first created character name, randomly selected character name, whatever) before another wave of people comes, it would be super awesome?
