I think that in most of the forums where people only meet online, real names are not neccessary and you can lie about your real name. However, like a school or a community forum, in which people also see each other in flesh, real names make things easier.

Hi, I just got vB installed and I would like to know how to add first/real names to the postbit. Thanks!
