Do you think it's safe to name names if your post or poll has a "positive" tone?

This one was inspired by something someone with the initials "PA" said (and in the absence of any official response). :D

Well, do you think it's safe? ;)

It's not safe. Even a positive poll will make those who fare poorly feel bad. And those who don't even make the poll might be crushed. There are a lot of sensitive people in the forums.

I think the whole no names thing is ridiculous. It prevents nothing. Like you did, people say things like "with the intials..." or find some other way of making clear who is being discussed.

Either a post is fair (even if not positive, but fair) or it is an attack. Whether the actual name is used or not is irrelevant.

Ofcourse, as long as they're not residents.
