    Okay, when running a forum, what's the best username for an admin? You're real name? A screen name? The site's name? What's the most effective?

    Seriously though, I don't think matters what-so-ever, I don't think people are going to stop using a forum because of the admin's username. Unless it's something really bizarre like ILikeToHaveSexWithDeadPeople or something.

    you could also use admin even though its bland u get the message across that u are the boss.... or u cud use BOFH, anything you want basically. i can also depend on your site content. if its a informal website, then ur name / domain etc is good.
