Glad to see there's another regular lurker who feels the same.

I m curious why someone might not want to use their full name. I realize that there is no privacy on the internet, but there is a level of professionalism on this forum that shouldn't be detrimental to anyone's reputation--or am I missing something? Is it more of a question of personal preference not to have your name in the public domain? I would appreciate a more detailed explanation as this issue is interesting to me.

There are many other forums (?fora) that embrace annoymity.They might be good venues for you. Here, posters state their names.
