I haven't seen it done, but it sounds like a good idea. Using the login user name as the display name gives someone half the info they need to impersonate you.]]> Tue, 24 Jan 2006 22:07:49 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/split-login-and-nickname_topic18110_post98043.html#98043 https://forums.webwiz.net/split-login-and-nickname_topic18110_post97993.html#97993 Author: Slov

I tried to search the forum but didn't find the answer. Is it possible to separate nicknames form login names in this forum and thus is it possible to change user's nickname?
All posts are signed by a user logins and I think it is not good for security and also prevent me from changing my actual nickname.]]> Tue, 24 Jan 2006 13:11:02 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/split-login-and-nickname_topic18110_post97993.html#97993
