Use character name for poster name
Suggestion: Give logged in user the ability to select a character to post under.
Reasons:
1. Account login name as poster name is (albeit minor) a security risk.
2. It will allow users with multiple characters to better represent their characters in the RP section.
3. It will give a general idea who a post is from, so people like DE-A can at least be loosely correlated with an in-game character.
4. Lists are good.

+1 this make most sense- and this way my thread dont lock cause ryan cuss

Several considerations, however:
Needs to be optional, so that people can opt to use their account name as a consistent handle even if they frequently delete and replace their characters. (I think you did intend that, but I wasn't sure so I figured I'd make it explicit.)
Needs to distinguish whether a post is signed by an account name or a character name, since the game allows character names to overlap with other people's account names. Alternately, pool all character and account names when checking for uniqueness for setting either. That would require somehow handling any overlaps that already exist, however.
Might need to have a way to distinguish between posts signed with the same character name but originating from different accounts, for when a character gets deleted and the name is reused by somebody else. Maybe by formatting a post by a deleted character differently, and by having all character names link to their character information page by ID number (e.g. Rin Ganborro).

DE-A, VO has users from all over the world... you might consider posting in whatever language you actually speak and have some one who can at least type in English translate for you... your average post makes about as much sense as one that was created by Bablefish.
