SE making character info/server shown is fantastic. Only thing missing was making it be the highest level character on the account. Here's to hoping they rectify that. If people want to join in discussions, add their input, and criticism, etc at least have the sack to show your main character.
I actually agree with you now, since the forced character thing these forums have lost a lot of their appeal. Mainly the attitude of many of the posters which have made this place seem a lot dumber and a lot less friendly a place to be a part of (maybe it was always that way, but it shines out a lot more with recent changes to the forum). If they had forced it to be main chars those of us that had a problem with it would of simply quit and been done with them, as it was they ruined the appeal to many but still left an avenue that let us carry on posting.

I intend to use them as little as possible now personally, there are far better forums with far better communities around than this place. The only thing this place has going for it is the eye of the devs and in reality they only listen to the JP forum anyway, regardless how they try to make it appear.
