On my community not only we do not require real names but we do not tolerate that users give the name of other users. Of course everyone is free to give his own real name if he likes it.
Asking forum owner to verify real identity is just a nonsence, what tool do we have to make sure of it ? are we supposed to ask for an ID Card ? and if yes how are we supposed to check it is not a fake and it is indeed the one of the member ? In France only a police officer is allowed to ask for an ID card...
This is typically political BS... If someone posts something illegal we are already logging the IP addresses and have to give it to the authorities, so nobody is anonymous on the internet, and everybody knows it... All the laws needed already exist.
