>>4248535>Because in some cases it's actually useful for things other than attentionfagging.And despite that, it still only is used as form of identity by the amongs. We are in an anonymous board, so the name field still is entirely useless and has no point in the first place. By the way, having a name or a tripcode is encouraged by mods as a way to prevent avatarfagging, and 4chan first started with a bunch of namefags and tripfags, so keep theses in your mind. The guy you're replying has its point that is still standing out.
>For example if you're the developer of a piece of software on /g/ or you made a game on /vg/agdg/ and you need to be identified.There's no need to do that, because in theses cases, people will still identify who's the one doing the "attention whoring", through the way the guy is writing or how he's posting an image of his progress everytime he posts. He can posts images to identify himself, but oh wait, that's avatarfagging, and therefore, against the rules.
Just learn to ignore and don't derail threads because someone is using a name.
