I am wary of anyone asking for information like this.
The only people who need this type of information are those coordinating the project and to an extent those involved in the work in sick people, you need to guard your identity just like your life.
Keep in mind some people aren't as altruistic in there endeavors, as can be witnessed by the daily tally of world events. Not saying be paranoid but be careful.

Wait, what. What is someone going to do with a username.

First off, welcome to the forums. :-)
Secondly, if you'll look in the bottom right hand corner of each post you make, you'll notice there is a little "Logged".
That's your IP address being logged, so I'm sure if anyone smart enough wanted to, they could easily hack the forums, get each IP address, corresponding to each username, and track through the details given in registration (which I assume are stored).
Not saying it's happening or anything, just an idea of what could happen, if any people did want to find out identies. Keep in mind, in this day and age, there are untold ways of getting peoples details through the smallest of means.

So if this IS true then it doesn't matter if you post someones username cause there will be no logged button everytime you post a username.
*:.Griever.:*:
If you post someones username, it's easy enough to click that little search button you see up on the left. ;-)
Anyway, point is, I'm sure no one is doing this. End of.

Okay, just to say one thing. You can change your I.P. to say your somewhere your not. My old one used to say I was in Manhatten!

This is an era of paralyzing through intimidation, lawyers, and just plain sick people, you need to guard your identity just like your life.

While I understand what you mean, the names are going to be in the credits at the end of the project anyway (hence accessible by everyone) and the names had already been posted in the previous thread so if somebody wanted that information, they would already have it.
I however, can edit my post to remove the names of everyone, or of particular individuals that wish it. Just PM me if you wish your name taken down from the list.
Cyberman:
LOL I wasn't intending to create a hysterical outcry.
Just keep your wits about you! (IE be innocent not naive)
Also just reminding you there are some real wacko's out there.
Marcis probably the best way of handling it, however they want to be credited etc.
Have fun with the project people. :D
