Live Stream/FFF check in - Ideas for privacy

[Princess Jes]

Ok, so @SorcererHeidi mentioned in another thread that she wasn't sure that people would identify her on Live Stream chat because it's not her DISboards screen name, and I know some people are hesitant to put their real name on a forum for various reasons, so I thought we could maybe have a private facebook group where us regulars could come and have a chat, share stories, whatever really, and also share what our name would be in Livestream so we can identify each other.

I'm happy to Admin the group and only allow access to those who identify themselves as a frequent DISboards poster and I can have a verification process (eg, send a password to then via PM here and have them confirm via FB or something)

It's up to you guys, if it's something you'd be interested in, please vote and also comment here with thoughts, ideas, suggestions.

I'm friends with a couple of people on FB but I'm sure that between us, we probably have mutual friends outside of the podcast team that can then add people etc. like I said, I'd only be allowing people within our little podcast community to join (no offense or any of that, it's for privacy of those who want it)

I'm happy to PM people my FB name and add them if they so choose also. (I'm not very interesting on FB, and have to admit, as Pete put it in his DMR interview, I am known to swear like a trucker ( @disneysteve and @HubbDave can probably confirm), but censor myself here for obvious reasons.

Ok, so let me know!! and if not, I'll try to guess who is who for the FFF this weekend

Stupid question....if I hit "start a conversation" and only put that person's name in the participants, that's like a PM, and it ONLY goes to them, right? Thanx.

Sure is sweet

Why not just make a livestream account with your dis boards? And if it's taken, add a number or something at the end.

Well yeah... That would be the EASY choice... But what about those of us who like a challenge? ;-)

Like I said, just an idea.

I'm happy to join any group of fellow DISers, but I don't personally feel the need for anonymity around here. There are a few dozen regulars who already know me personally in real life thanks to the DIS meets. Plus I've been on the show a few times so even people who haven't met me in person have seen my face by now.

And, as you are well aware Jes, anyone who wants to find me can do so with a little bit of cyberstalking .

I can't even keep up with the Livestream chat. I certainly couldn't even attempt to pay attention to more than one chat stream.

I don't mind people knowing my real name. It's Bob Iger.

I have a few things I'd like to discuss with you.

 

[Tom P.]

I wouldn't care to join a group like that, and provide my real name. But I provide my real name here. It's Tom. And, besides, I don't have a Facebook account, so that would count me out of any FB group.

 

[disneysteve]

Have fun tonight folks. I will be out so won't be listening or in chat.

Will be sorry not to "see" you there Steve, but enjoy, whatever you're doing!

 

[Princess Jes]

Oh we'll miss you Steve!
I'm running late, so I'll join ASAP.
Priorities... Getting a pizza for lunch after some Xmas shopping for an hour

 

[SorcererHeidi]

Missed you, Jes - you said hi, I said hi back, and you "whooshed". Did I scare ya? LOL

 

[Hunterr]

I was here the whole time, but forgot about this. Only caught the last few minutes.

Anyhoo, seeing Steve Porter in a hat made me realize...
I think he's actually a young Dustin West brought back to the future.
Pete has a Deloreon in his garage...

You were in YouTube chat!!
All the cool kids were in live stream ;-)
