Identifying who posted

Facebook shows the user who post from the page.

In case of Twitter, a suggestion was to add initials after tweet but pulkit wanted to prevent them and feels they look ugly. Right now Kevin and Pulkit are collaborating with each personally before posting anything. Any better suggestion to handle this is welcome.

Helping

Right now, TheMystic and pulkit are using these accounts actively. Contact them on IRC if you want to help.
