They were not infact, I'm not writing this because I feel offended in any way, I wrote "my posts could be ignored or ridiculed". If I did not get much of a response, I chalk it up to content only, but it is nothing personal, I assure you. I just would like to understand the general feeling on this,

Yeah my guess would be to keep from feeding the Trolls. knowing a players background in the community can help with forming a response. for instance a player like Rill, Honered mule, or The_Duke, would get responses which assumed they had a large understanding of the game, a player like myself would get responses which (hopefully) assumed mediocre understanding of game mechanics. also simply knowing that a forum post is from a player makes it more valid as it is understood that they have a stake in the community. 

Lastly i would like to point out that i searched the forum for post(s) where you (babbens) were ridiculed or ignored, to no avail, let alone to find an instance where your having 2 nicknames was "frowned upon".

I don't feel I'm hiding or lacking anything. If those are are seen as reasons, ok.
I guess I'll only read the forum from now on.

If you do not have courage to post using your real gamename then why do you get surprised when your comments are ignored or ridiculed.
Everybody has a stake when they post something, Some posts can have a hidden motive. When you hide your identity your stake/hidden motives can not be clear.

It is already a couple of times now that I have noticed that having two different nicks, one for the forum and one for the game, is somehow frowned upon. I would like to know why, exactly.

From the very start I thought it a good idea  to keep the two things separated and I will continue to do so; but I find it disappointing  that my posts could be ignored or ridiculed - regardless of content - only for this reason. Still, if it has to be that way, so be it.
