Actually, I used to use my real name in discussion on Usenet, which is a far more aggressive discussion area than Curezone. What I found that was I took offense way too easily because I was using my own name, and would get pulled into pointless argumentation.




And to be honest, I'm not sure what knowing your real name would have to do with ascertaining the value of your comments.

TK--- I agree, it doesn't mean anything unless possibly the person is a PHD or doctor that you can verify easily [not just someone saying they are]. Otherwise we are all just people discussing a common problem. Some with more or less experience and knowledge trying to help others and ourselves.
I also agree that Hg toxicity creates hostility for many, inability to cope, connunicate effectively, emotional instability and persecution complexes. This is not directed toward any one person, just my observations on the Hg forums.
