Having people stalk you is great.
 
     
 
Nope. E-mails work well enough.
     
...this is why Facebook exists.

98% of people find these types of signatures to be incredibly annoying. If you're one of the 2% that doesn't...no, wait!

God, no. That would just be over the top, there, guys.
And I know it's just paranoia, but even if there was a privacy setting, I wouldn't put my real name.
Ever.

NO. This isn't myspace. If I wanted people to find me, I would give them my email. If your going to do it anyway at least make an option so I can check if I want people to find me. Gaia is like my home away from home.


EDIT: But thanks Gaia for letting us choose if we want it or not. Obviously by the poll, its a bad idea. We wouldn't want you to waste bandwidth on something no one wants. xp

First vote, hopefully first post.


N. O.

It's the internet, not the yellow pages.
yeah i would not put my real name online
     
this user is now moved to johnny cisum,and will not be online,if you are friends with this user please re add his new account johnny cisum,all friends will be deleted from this account
Not too fussed on the whole having my details all over the place idea... so no.
 
     
 
Oh God no.

If I want someone to know who I am on Gaia, I tell them. If I want to know if someone I know is on Gaia, I ask them. I wouldn't search for them, and I wouldn't enter my name so that they could search for me.
