Years ago during FR's big banhammer wave they did (supposedly) ask for banned users to submit reports with a photo of the user holding their ID up to their face. I say (supposedly) because iirc that's what the banned users were saying on Tumblr. So this isn't the first instance of a pet site asking for ID's. However considering the fact that someone is threatening to doxx another person on the various salt blogs then this information would not be safe to share with Santae's staff if they're the ones that are running around on Anon. (Given the fact that someone has already unsuccessfully tried to impersonate CJ on Tumblr.) Honestly this entire situation is such a mess for a site that's only just gotten started.
The difference here is FR actually collects info in registration. Santae doesn't. I would have no trouble with submitting my id to FR staff, because I know they have info to match to.
If you click on account settings and click user profile, it shows you the name and birthdate you registered with. Obviously you can put in whatever but the site does ask.
Name and birthrate are on the registration, which are both on ids. You may have been one of those who puts in fake info, but account recovery is a major reason it asks for a name.
If you give a joke name, and something happens, they might not be able to recover the account if something happens. I never give fake info, because I have seen people who have lost paid gaming accounts because they used a fake name whining so often. If I'm putting time into something, it has real info.
