The registration database includes forums that do not require a real name to post. In the header of each section that does require real names there is a notice to that effect.
In little tiny print only to be seen after registering. It would seem to make the Mods' and Members' job easier if the fancy new forum software could handle this when people are registering, maybe just a selection when you register as too whether you are registering for R/E/P only or for any other forums that then triggers whether to indicate that registering requires a full name.
You can't fill in your displayed name till after you register anyway. The issue is explained in an
announcement that appears in bright yellow in every one of the SR forums, it is explained again in the topic
Required Reading for all members in the Site Rules and Suggestions forum. I really think if you miss all that, you are also going to miss the little box on the registration form. If someone
does miss all that, and they will, a moderator will correct them. You can only hold your kids hand while they cross the street till a certain age, at some point they have to take responsibility for themselves.
