Screen names would make the most sense, since our real names are frequently unknown. What about both? {screen name} aka {real name} ?

So a list of real names? Screen names?
I would think they would recognize usernames easier than real names?

I wouldn't put in anything about CF, current or past. That could bring up some bad associations for them. Just FROM: and a list of names would be best, I think.
I'm gay.

Er, I mean, plus one.

Screen names FTW.

Because they got hit by a drunk last year. The drunk is fighting the lawsuit, though he's already been convicted criminally and is paying them the princely sum of $50/month. Their medical bills from the crash, combined with the loss of business at their shop while they were laid-up healing, forced them into bankruptcy. That forced them to sell Cycleforums to VS, in order to try and survive.

Verstehen?

Bump.

Don't forget about this thread.

I know some people are waiting and many are tight but let's make this happen.
