You mean provide ID? I don't understand how that would accomplish of those three things.
Using Real Name..

not really so far as ID. But try to encourage to play with your name. Friendship is hard to understand if the name is 3745Hustler.. to make my point on the edge...

I know Hillary's name and I dont trust in her, I am sure she is an alien/lizzard, what you said makes no sense.
My name is Donald Trump and people dont trust me because I say it in public, they trust me because of my actions.

I much prefer user names as we can choose what providence hasn't for us...
Ziggy Zugzwang
(AKA, real name, Noah Bottomgrope )

Yes Ziggy, names are nice to show your creativity or cultural level.
Probably you should change your name to zwischenzwang, it will show you are a strong chess player and a smart one for combining to chess terms.
Because people are unwilling to hand out personal information for no good reason and such a rule would drastically reduce member count here.
Also, MAGA.

Stalking? Death threats? WTF are you people talking about? You tell people your real name IRL and you don't get stalked. Some of us are just as opinionated IRL and we don't recieve death threats.

Its been the only name I've had since birth, although I'm sure Staff probably has a few choice nicknames for me.

Several years ago I received a series of death threats from another member who seems to have lost his grip. He would post bits of information about my home, work, family in his threats. It happens...IRL

And people say that the situation has degraded on the forums.
Why have the posibility to have many profiles on chess.com?
I guess its a question for owners of the chess.com
1. It would make it more fun for all
2. Easier to make friends
3. More trust in our longer timed games
Any thoughts?
