But this is colossally stupid.

the site where I spend the most of my internet dollars - by miles and miles - is a free website/database where there is no real name requirement. I don't spend a lot of money online, but of what i do spend, this site gets the overwhelming more than 95% of my money every month funneling through it.

What site? Ravelry. I buy patterns, I buy yarn, I buy fiber, and I buy spindles. I spend more of my yarn and knitting money on ravelry than I do in brick and mortar yarn stores. And ravelry has no trouble at all convincing me to pony up regardless of my name. They don't need my name. They just need me to claim that sock yarn doesn't count as stash.
