I've got a FB account, they make people use their real names and I don't see where it causes a whole lot of restraint :dunno:

Not correct, just provide a name and a date of birth, and be anyone you want to be.

That is called "Catfishing"
Just tend your own and live.

Facebook requires real names. That's not going to happen here.

https://m.facebook.com/help/112146705538576

What names are allowed on Facebook?
Facebook is a community where everyone uses the name they go by in everyday life. This makes it so that you always know who you're connecting with.

Your name can't include:

Symbols, numbers, unusual capitalization, repeating characters or punctuation.
Characters from multiple languages.
Titles of any kind (example: professional, religious).
Words or phrases in place of a name.
Offensive or suggestive words of any kind.
If your name follows our standards and you're still having trouble changing it, find out why.

Other things to keep in mind:

The name on your profile should be the name that your friends call you in everyday life. This name should also appear on an ID or document from our ID list.
Nicknames can be used as a first or middle name if they're a variation of your authentic name (like Bob instead of Robert).
You can also list another name on your account (example: maiden name, nickname, professional name).
Profiles are for individual use only. You can create a Page for a business, organization or idea.
Pretending to be anything or anyone isn't allowed.
Nature. It's cheaper than therapy.

 :yeah:

I know a few folks had their accounts suspended for making false name pages, some for security, some for business and some I dunno why  :dunno:
In the military community a lot of folks were trying to use nick names or handles during that period when ISIS was targeting military and doxxing them, lot of those folks simply left FB.

Now we know why Bud Light, Jack Hammer, Joe King and Don Key don’t have Facebook accounts.

Of course, that is what they say is required, but I pose the same question I asked before, what vetting process is being done??

The answer is none.  There is no facebook identity verification unit that comes out and checks for valid and proper picture ID before allowing an account to be opened, there is no requirement to submit a copy of said valid ID to be put on file, to think otherwise is just silly.

The pages that get dumped are usually obviously fake, example, cloning someone's account, then the person or one of their friends sees it and reports it.  Or they get reported for sending spam and advertising links out...

So there is no benefit to "requiring" real names be used on profiles, and as has been mentioned, several real hazards in doing so.

Welcome to the internet and social media, be whom ever you want to be and say what ever you want because the conquences are...well, pretty much none.


It is better to be consistently incorrect than inconsistently correct...

Sarcasm: The ability to insult stupid people without them realizing it. 

My level of sarcasm depends on your level of stupidity...

Sarcasm makes smart people laugh and stupid people mad.
