Forum:SH Archive/Names in signatures

Wookieepedia &gt; Senate Hall &gt; 

I've noticed a recent trend in customized signatures to display a name that is not, in fact, the signing user's name. While I'd hate to deprive people of the ability to tinker with their usernames (adding a title at the beginning, changing capitalization, etc), I find it really distracting when someone is presenting a username that is entirely different from the one they are registered to. I don't want to have to hover my cursor over their signature to find out who I'm actually talking to. I'm interesting in hearing others' opinions on this -- is this a harmless freedom, or is it getting out of hand? Havac 22:41, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
