Nicknames in posts and comments should be less human friendly. We should all be referred to as a number, not as a nickname
Another alternative is to just get people to refer to comment posters by post number, and link posts together somehow
My justification is that:
1) We should all be treated equal as a number. Numbers are easily forgotten, and makes it easy to reply to users, but makes us more anon
2) The use of nicknames promotes "powerusers", who people will unfairly vote any idea for because they had a few other ones.
3) I've seen eldmannen be unfairly targetted by someone with a pointless personal attack
4) I know I'm being unfairly targetted by someone too. My comments should be treated the same as everyone elses. Everyones comments should be treated with the same respect each.
5) Brainstorm should be 100% fair, everyone should have the same fighting chance with an idea! Just because they post what seems to be a notoriously dumb idea once, doesn't mean that people who read the idea should be able turned off, just because they remember the first one.
SPAM will be just as easy to catch, and admins could still be shown nicknames.
A system like this also helps stop continuing bitchiness amongst the same members (some people just like fighting).
