A majority of netizens polled "unconditionally support" the real-name registration system for playing online games, according to a recent survey.

The Ministry of Culture issued the Interim Provision of Real-Name Registration of Online Gaming earlier in August in order to prevent minors from getting addicted to cyber warfare.

Of the 12,714 netizens from all over China who responded to China Youth Daily's online survey in the second week of August, more than half agreed with the new measure. Half of them claimed to be online game players. Among them, 63 percent were in favor of real-name registration.

The survey also indicated that more than 60 percent felt the current real-name registration system "lacks details and will be difficult to implement."
