I am not sure if this already exists.

Can the Admins have two IDs to post with? Firstly, an ID for admin type
stuff (with an @lugnet.com domain) so we see that they are acting in an
official capacity such as help with posting problems or updates to the DB
etc... Secondly, a non-Admin ID (not @lugnet.com) for member stuff. In other
words a "my opinions do not necessarily reflect those of LUGNET."

This logic is used on the LEGO employees and makes the line very clear in
what capacity they are posting. For example, Jake McKee LEGO employee and AFOL.

This way, when an admin posts we can see what 'hat' they are wearing. I
think would help prevent misunderstandings when as a community member they
are posting an opinion that may not be seen as appropriate for an admin to
post in an official capacity.
