Nice idea. It'd need to be a really obvious notice though, none of your usual leaning towards the subtle.

I vote for it to be a bright red banner that blinks on and off and plays a really annoying noise until they've fixed it. And the reply and create conversation links and buttons should fly away from their mouse pointer like frightened rabbits until they've successfully named themselves like a good human should. And definitely add Clippy.

You may not remember but the old vBulletin forum had this.

Notices would appear at the top, under the navigation, on every page.

The only way to get them to disappear was to do what they asked.

Nah, I remember them well. Not nearly obvious enough, though. Where was the blinking, eh? And the scrolling marquees? Where was clippy? Where were the obscenely annoying popups that cover the entire page until you have carried out their bidding, Quora-style?
