I'm sorry if someone else already brought this up and I didn't see it. I see sheriff messages all over the boards telling people to register with 2 names instead of just 1. Can't you just enforce this 2 name policy in the registration form? It seems sort of silly.

This has been brought up before and was carefully considered. However it would require hacking some of the code in the UBB software and was considered too dangerous since it might mess up other things. we are upgrading the software soon and HOPEFULLY we'll be able to do it then ... until then I'm afraid you're just going to have to put up with the messages ... and we're going to have to put up with writing them!
Pounding at a thick stone wall won't move it, sometimes, you need to step back to see the way around.
