I'd either clean house or shut down if it were me.   I wouldn't want to provide a soapbox for disgruntled trads to come and spew their antisemitism and holocaust revisionism.

Vox, in the end, you have to do what is best for you.  BUT IF there is a way to keep this open, please do so.   Thank you.

Requiring posters to post under their real names could allay much mischief. I'm quite willing to do so. The trouble would be confirming that they are in fact using their real names.

Posting under real names would be very bad professionally for some users.  The early Christians didn't meet in the catacombs for the heck of it. They weren't stupid and weren't seeking their martyrdom. 

A bit melodramatic, don't ya think?

That kind of makes me sad. I was just embarking on a campaign to raise my factor!  :(

In spanish, Humberto is spelled with an H.

"If anyone thus speaks, that the Roman Pontiff has only the office of inspection or direction but not the full and supreme power of jurisdiction over the universal Church, not only in things which pertain to faith and morals, but also in those which pertain to the discipline and government of the Church spread over the whole world...let him be anathema." (Vatican I, Dz 1825, 1831)

Pray for the conversion of souls.

Usually, but my family received a special dispensation from this requirement, having previously performed certain vital services for the king.  Salute

There is nothing to be gained by using legal names. Having an established online identity is what matters.
