Well, the Duck Lodge has been up for only a few weeks and we've got one hell of a good start with the membership here. Lots of great people with some tremendous knowledge. It seems we get a few new members every week and word seems to be spreading...so keep up the good work! Smile

So now that we've been up for a couple of weeks, what suggestions might you have regarding the forum? These can be suggestions on the sections we have or don't have, the forum rules etc.

I'd also like opinions on the requirement to register using your real name. Do you think it is a good idea? It seemed to work great at duckboats and be a great way to minimize alot of the banter seen on other message boards. I think the registration requirement deters some people, but if people act like adults then I see no reason why anyone would have a problem registering with their name. What are your thoughts?

I think this is a good idear but also when they register as well so that stops a lot of confusion to sign off a post like p bloggs, if smeone wanted to reply to the post he would,nt know what the (P) in the first guys name stands for, for all I know it could be piss off Bloggs.

So my friend who wants to register can't use duckslayer69? Laughing I like the idea of at least part of a user's name bieng used. As a teacher, I do not like my full name to be out on the interweb.

I absolutely have no problem with those who don't wish to share their last name, but I really don't want to allow the typical usernames that you see in other places, like "duckbuster" or "birdslayer" etc. I'd rather have a bit more formality because it worked very well on the duckboats site. I think it goes to solidify the fact that we are adults and should act accordingly.
