Hi, Tommi Koivula!
I read your message from 24.07.2019 17:27

  LL>>> Former Z1C Janis Kracht had mentioned that it was okay for sysops
  LL>>> and moderators to exempt themselves from this policy, as they
  LL>>> were free to use whatever name they wanted to go by. But other
  LL>>> participants and lurkers were not free to do so, as policy didn't
  LL>>> cover them at all. In which case they had to use their real name
  LL>>> in order to participate, or even just to lurk without posting
  LL>>> messages.
  ak>> But how a person in Fidonet can prove that his name is real? IMHO,
  ak>> I can't do it even if I wanted to.

  TK> You dont have to prove it, it is enough that you tell us so.

Bye, Tommi!
