memobug

I have been using the User Reputation System since it became available.
Users in the past have complained that they received negative unsigned feedback. Some might point out that the anonymity of the system is its power, however, many people have taken to signing their feedback.
Now in an environment where people sign their feedback I think it would be nice to make this simple by appending the username " by memobug." for example to the feedback itself, but
the real driving factor is this: The possibility that troublemakers might sign a different name to their negative feedback to create dissention and problems.
I think the simplest implementation would be just to add the username to the feedback statement as it is made. Showing all the feedback origin at this point would not be advisable because we had many, many made when the system was supposedly anonymous.

Matt
