Funny you should ask. (I love this topic.)


Jim Weaver always thought that if people had to post under their real names and cities that they would be more polite, reasonable, and kinder to the student-athletes and coaches.

Uh, no. Take a spin around Facebook, and it disproves that theory. Not only are people saying awful things using their real names and cities, they even have pictures, so you can see their faces. Jim never saw that one coming (even after it happened).

There's one older ... man, gentleman isn't the right word .... who posts profanity-laced tirades repeatedly on Facebook. He occasionally wanders into a thread on VT sports. I don't think he's mentally correct, however. Might be a brain tumor issue or something.

Anyway ... our programmer is embarking on a long project to redo our billing and user management, and it will include Facebook login. Maybe Twitter login, too.
