I have a question for you.

Okay just say someone joins under the name, Frank Fredricks. It sounds like a
normal name, but maybe is not his real name. Are you telling me now, that when
people join that they have to prove their identity.

Even if they give out a phone number, you can call and that person, and they
can just confirm their fake name. I work in Multimedia and design and computer
modeling these days. Even if you asked for a driver lisense or some other forms
of identification, I can create something and send it and no one would be the
wiser.

Maybe his case is different, but what is the actual procedure now for new
members. Cause just telling them to write their real name is pointless. You are
still relying on them to be honest. Anyone can put a name that sounds normal.

Just like if I was to have joined as Frank Fredricks. I would still be Michael,
using a different name.
