Nope, that’s not me, I always put my name on all my posts. But I can tell you there are indeed a lot of anonymous posts, because Name is optional. The website does not require you to register before posting, so it’s easy to post anonymously.
Occasionally people have used anonymity to say mean or unfair things on the forum, but the vast majority of people have been civil and respectful and not abused the forum. Thus, we’ve been able to avoid all that username/password stuff that you have to go through on so many other forums. Usernames/passwords serve a purpose on some websites, but as long as we all play nice together, we can get by without forcing you to register and making you remember yet another set of usernames and passwords. I hate it when websites make me needlessly register and remember more passwords, and I don’t plan to inflict that on the fine folks here as long as we can all stay fairly civil.
