blonde poker forum

I like reading diaries . Especially Alex , Pleno , Liam n few new one . Miss the John Black diary though . Recently there been a few new diaries which are very interesting to read . Fantastic talking about poker HH, volume etc.. But why post here & create a interesting diary BUT DONT WANT READERS TO KNOW WHO U ARE ? I am a fan of reading but I will like to know what I am reading and who's diary it is . Kind of annoying if u read a book but don't know who's the writer ! Please correct me if I am wrong . If they wanted to stay anon , why create a diary here ?

Who are you?

You should do a diary Frankie (http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/g439/exatera/smileys/crazy/smiley_nuts.gif)

What would people think if we insisted (for new sign ups to the forum) and encouraged (for existing members) people to use their real names when posting on the forum, as you would if you belonged to a poker group on say facebook?

No way, people should be allowed to be anonymous if they want. It will stop some signing up for sure also.

In the particular instance that Frankie is referring to - I'd much rather have him stay anon because its not worth it (for him) to out himself in terms of $$$, he'll just not bother posting and that's a loss to the forum.

At the end of the day it is his choice, all he is doing is posting on a poker forum. I dont know the real names of some posters and its not important. Why should people be forced to reveal their real names and all their poker aliases?

As for Tighty's point - again disagree, UNLESS you are posting in the staking forums. I can create a profile with my picture on Facebook, but I can put any old name up there.

Ok . Get this straight . If u make a diary , talk about poker and all stuffs that happening to your daily life , should we know who's diary this is ? I am saying that u must singed up with real name BUT YOUR DIARY WE READING !!

My name us Waheed Ashraff know as Wadee .

I don't think people should be forced to actually state there real names. But.. If someone starts a diary on their life or poker journeys, the whole point of it is to be personal. People are able to relate and connect to a person and their views. Alot of the time when reading an opening post, I honestly don't continue reading as don't know who they are. And in My opinion, a few diarys or threads are only started to get 300 posts so they can get on the staking boards too.

Think it the responiblity if a poster to introduce themselves to their readers.

Shouldn't have make a diary if don't want readers to know who u are ? I don't disagree with them protecting the ££$$€€ but if they think if doing that , why create a ANON DIARY ? Simple as that

judge him on what he says and how he says it rather than who he is maybe?


is itttttt

Why all the shouting in the thread? Sure politely ask someone their real name, but I find the shouting and demanding a bit off putting.  

We have a new poster who has put a lot of good content on the board already, leave him be.  If he wants to say who he is, I think he has the right to do it when he wants.

Now if he calls me a ****, then it is different.

Who's shouting ? Capital wording meant shouting ? Lol

Hi Frankie,

I know you don't always come across in the manner you intended.

Just so you know, UPPER CASE ("Capital wording") is the internet equivelant of shouting, or angry.

In your case, you don't mean it that way, of course, but not everyone realises that.  

I like it being anon, he is like our version of the stig

Thanks TK . I needed reading glasses to write . Even the wording on my phone are XXXXXL , so I can easily . Thanks for telling readers my name ! I wanted to stay Anon but u told them who I am

If you don't like it, ask for a refund.

Mixed opinions . Free country

IS ITTT

how has this possibly annoyed you this much Frankie?!

<3

I may mistaken to say I am annoyed about this diary thingy . Like I say if I bought and read a book , I want to know who wrote it. Same as reading a diary . Maybe someone did say that people needed 300+ post here to do a staking thing or tring to take advantage of players style of playing . I don't know , I m stupid  for putting this topic !

I know where you are coming from but at the end of the day if he wants to be anon no dramas.

It's been an interesting read and hope it continues!

I would say its fine to be anon. Or maybe even a positive to this forum specifically.

Let's have more anons, with dirty Vegas stories.

It's not fb or a dating site is it ?

IS IT?

Love Frankie btw.

It's an online forum where people are supposed to hide behind screen names and avatars. If everybody had to say who they were it would put a lot of people off. Not just their bottom line but maybe they don't want their friend, mother in law or neighbour to google their name and find out they make 250k a year.

On 2p2 there is maybe 300 active blogs and probably 200 at least are anon.

if you paid for the diary the same way you pay for the book then i would be a little closer to understanding your view.

You should probably also change your name here to Chin Chai Koh

The only thing I don't want the public to know about me is if a font something wrong .
Right boys n girls , I think conversations about the diaries and the view by readers are different .

English only at the table please.

what a life

has anyone called the police?

  I think remaining anonymous is very important on a forum like this. That's what I do. You never really thought this was Ian  Gascoigne did you?

shutup frankie
