I would have been ok with the "new naming" policy had known that my display name wasn't going to be what people saw .. i would have chosen a different login name .... I just think its STUPID beyond words to make the login your name in SL .. thats in fact a security breach if you ask me ... people already half half of what they need to log in ... a good hacker could get your password and clean you out by knowing your login name ..... it isn't smart ... and i really can't believe as successful as SL has been that this is the solution to whatever issue there was. I mean keeping track of items owned by an account could be done in the background and not advertised to everyone, and as far as the name change thing .... again shouldn't be related to the account log in name .... you do not see any MMO's which is probably the closest relative this has using log in names as their avatar names in world, RETHINK what you are doing .. because you honestly have shot yourself in the foot if you ask me .... i honestly cant' believe ANYONE at LL thinks this was a good idea if you really stop and think about it, and if you do well you are basically endorsing Avination or InWorldz if you ask me.

Well i quite frankly am pretty pissed your account log in showing up as your avatar name ... do you know how much of a breech of security that is ?? any hacker already has half of what they need to bust into your account ... where was the intelligence there? Not to mention had I been told YOUR LOG IN IS YOUR NAME ... i'd have never used the log in I did .. when asked if i could change it to somethign that made more sense to my avatar name i was told it was absolutely not possible which again is stupid. I was asked to name my avatar after logging in ... THIS is what i thought people would see not my log in. I want to be known as my avatar name not as my login name ... you really should address this .. its just absolutely STUPID to say the least.
