Can we have a rule for qotw
that when you post an anecdote you don't abbreviate people's names to a single letter? It's like reading a bloody algebra equation. If you don't want to post people's real names, make up a fake one or use a lolarious nickname. Stories like "then Tubby Bitch tried to kick Durnoid" are much easier to read than "then B tried to kick M". We don't use single letters to identify people in real life, so when you do so it's hard to keep track of.

I disagree
Single letters are simple, efficient and not at all confusing if the writer is competent and articulate.

If we could ban poor writers, though...

Just use their real names
like anyone would know or care anyway
