While this may not affect everybody, there's has been a minor debate on initialized signatures or nicknames for signatures. Examples of this would be Randall000-->RJM and Silverdragon706-->FyreNWater. While I personally initially had an initialized Signature (Smorekingxg456-->SK), I was asked by Shadowcrest to change it. Recently, I found a debate on the matter. It would be nice to have other users and admins opinions on this subject. Please discuss your opinions on the matter.Smore Talk 23:29, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
Initialized sig users should explain who they are on their user and/or talk pages to clear up any misconceptions. Cheezperson {talk}stuff 00:49, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
- As long as there is a link to the user page, I have no issue with signatures like that. --Sky (t · c · w) 01:05, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
- I agree with Sky. My signature shows me as "5280s" and not my full username, "Miles.oppenheimer"... Maybe you can see why this is preferable. And Sky's point about linking also matches my opinion. {I'm 5280s, and I approve this message.} 19:43, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
Also, if one drags their cursor over the sig, it will reveal what their real user name is. - GalaxiaD (talk) 01:17, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
