Well, so long as Doug's name and memory isn't used as a club to defend the base or attack those whom ever happen to destroy it. Malaclypse was indeed just his char name and his forum account. But I bet he'd prefer that you remember and repeat many of his proverbs which had an interesting way of tickling the truth.
If the base is in fact not related to his memory, as you say...what is the reason you would use the name most people know him by?

Because Malaclypse is the name of a man or being if you will, in our RP that is basically one of the names associated with the founding of Discordianism, both in RL and in the TAZ lore. Doug didn't make up the name on the spot. It has significance as a name that reflects a great being of the religion, much like Catholicism has the Virgin Mary.
I know that the group and myself wont be immature if something happens. The argument that this shouldn't be in a game...I don't get. It isn't doing anyone a disservice or causing any harm. And if people argue that fact then they really need to toughen up and mind their own business. End of Story.
Sorry, I'd have to say that I didn't know him as Malaclypse. Always knew him as Doug both in and outside of Disco in fact it was only later after knowing him that I learned Malaclypse was his account. Not sure if anyone who didn't know him as Doug really knew him at all. Remembering his legendary patience (sarcasm) I'd probably chuckle if he had an opportunity to post in this thread that is about a digital account name of his. But if it does ruffle your feathers a bunch, and being a subject that can make people squirm (death), you'll probably be successful in your current endeaver.

We didn't name it 'Doug's memorial', did we?
We named it 'Malaclypse's sanctuary'.

That said,
Doug was the heart of TAZ. He was the one who mainly drove that faction to its full potential.<snip>
