    Using character name instead of account name on forums

    Is there any way to have my main name displayed as my character name? I'm very security conscious and would rather not have my account name in big fat letters above my avatar.

    I was wondering that same thing as my screen name isn't the character name I'm using.

    I guess the problem with that would be several people appearing with the same name. SE could fix that by displaying the server along with the name (like FFXIAH does), but I doubt they'll bother with it. If it's semi-working and less than 97.2% of the users complain, SE is unlikely to fix it.

    This isn't my account name. You can (or could, at least, at signup) select the forum username independently of your SE account name.
