I thought of that. My girlfriend is Ultramarine on this site, although she rarely plays. I would mention in my Profile that Ultramarine is my girlfriend. It would still be fairer to people who might want to play Go with her. If they suspected that I was Ultramarine, then they could choose not to play her.
My issue is with people on Waiting Games that look like new players, but are really highly skilled, with multiple identities. There are also certain players that have thousands of games, then also play under different names too. If I knew a little more about the players that I am about to engage, I would refrain from playing them.
Also, it would be interesting for everyone to see the connections between players, even if they are family members.
I don't think that family members should play online for ratings anyway.

What? You know this is a fun games site, right? No money or titles are on the line.

TarantinoFan: It goes farther then that. If you are a university student all students from the University could show up as the same IP. Also one player could show up from tones of ips some overlapping if they are moving around or using public access. If you think a player is cheating message fencer.

emmett:  I think it would be a better idea that we add the family members names to our name i.e  "Andersp married to Antje", "Emmet boyfriend to Ultramarine"...then you dont need to click any profiles

emmett: you forgot to factor in the blocked user. If you don't want to play someone for some reason but they turn up at the same IP as you (due to using a public facility) then you don't wanna meet them in person do you?????

Mctrivia:  I didn't start this conversation. I have no idea how to tell if someone is cheating.

Andersp: It causes enough confusion already with the relationships in this place. Some people I know already change their name weekly and others would have to start!!!

I'm not so sure that tracking peoples relationships on here is a good thing, whether it be family members or any other type of relationship. The next thing that someone is going to want to do is keep track of users who login with one screen name but from several IP addresses (are they cheating or simply logging in where it's convient?) Personally, I know I log in on at least 3 different IP's during the week.

That's not even touching on the whole privacy issue. My opinion is that this idea/request is one destined to go down in flames.

tazman7474: Oh dear! I was about to propose a compulsory Genealogy feature, where we could build a great big Brain King Family Tree. We're proably ALL related if we can go back far enough

TarantinoFan:  My suggestion was a joke since i consider this "family member request" as a big joke :)



I second your opinion about the people who change their names frequently, thats a pain in the... too,  but i suppose thats something we have to live with  :(
