I am a TRUE believer in individuality. My personality and experience is not defined nor LIMITED by my affiliation. If anything it is enriched. I refuse to let others tell me who I should be because of my letters.
BUT
When you have your letters, colors or symbols in your handle quote, etc. then you need to be conscious that you are representing your organisation full time on this board.
Yes we are all individuals, but when we SAY that we represent certain ideals then we need to be aware when that is not happening, and our behavior is downright contradicting what we say we stand for.

It may be said with rough accuracy that there are three stages in the life of a strong people. First, it is a small power, and fights small powers. Then it is a great power, and fights great powers. Then it is a great power, and fights small powers, but pretends that they are great powers, in order to rekindle the ashes of its ancient emotion and vanity.-- G.K. Chesterton
