No, you said before you were hesitant to use your *real* name.  And suddenly

The spambots argument has been refuted just yesterday.  As for trolls, utter 
nonsense.  Trolls could not care less about your real name; all they want is 
to provoke you and jerk off of it.  You might be afraid of _stalkers_ IRL, 
but then if you can’t stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen.

One cannot help you if you do not state your purpose clearly.  This is not a 
guessing game.  RTFFAQ and stop wasting our time.

You should regret other things instead.
