Forum:Real Name in profile

The user profile:

Under the Read name field it has the following;

"Real name is optional and, if you choose to provide it, will be used for giving you attribution for your work. This field must be filled in to use Wikia Search."

How can it be optional and required at the same time? I don't wish to use it, but every time I login I get a message stating that it is not filled in.
