Done it for you.

If anyone else would like theirs to be changed just ask, if I have another spare five minutes between phone calls that is!

I much prefer that forum user on here use their own name as I also do on our own forum, this makes things much easier as everything tallies up nicely with the members info I recieve from the MemSec which means I can easily identify who is who without resorting to a plethera of pm and cross references to identify some obscure title as a bonafide member.

Ah yes but the word "impose" was preceeded by "if you really want to".

Gordon, if, when you registered for the forum it had fields that said "Forename", "Surname" and "Response Group" and then it created a consitent, professional looking, free from misunderstanding forum name for you, would that really feel like an imposition?

[Gordon Mc Connell]

I already provide almost all of the info you mention and some that you do not, however that was my choice.
