Apollo D.

I was on Quora for exactly two months and developed a pretty good following and got tons of upvotes and positive responses. Today I got booted off because I didn't use my real name. I used the name of Apollo Dawn and I didn't see anything wrong with that. I didn't even asked to join.My Google account opened up that door. I tried to access them and they gave me some bulls**t of having to send them documented proof of my real name. Okay, you want me to send your veriification of my 'real name"? That would mean sending you sensitive info over a website that is isn't very secure. (You have guys sitting in their bedrooms accessing the top institutions in the country with frightening ease and you want me to send you documentation of my real name?... Don't think so). The name that i used was okay for two months, now you find fault with it? I did my research and found out two disturbing things going on here.
One was that only "privileged" members were allowed to use names that were not theirs. Privileged Members? This is a site you can go on to have fun, seek info on certain subjects and hopefully make someone's day. You're either gonna' treat everybody the same or close up shop.The second was that if someone else on Quora suspects that your name is not real, they can rat you out to the administrators and have you locked out. Sounds like a bunch of old women going after each other at get together. What business is it of anyone's if you choose to go with a another name outside of your own? Being on Quora was fun while it lasted and I'm gonna' miss the questions. But i refused to give any sensitive info like identity proof to a site that is wide opened to be hack with ease.
