Anonymous: What's your thoughts?
So I know some people use the anonymous poster feature, some don't.
Why would you use it? Why wouldn't you?
Under the guise of Anonymity
myself, I've started a few topics anonymously fearing retribution or prejudice based on my previous posts on a subject to try and keep the thread completely sterile and free of the taint of previous topics of that nature with my mark on it.
I've started a few out of personal embarrassment, avoiding a friend or family member possibly realizing who it was if they came across it under my name.
I've started a few for no other reason than... well, why not?
I've seen some people turn their nose up at the concept of Anonymous posts, feeling it tears away at the thread of community, but I find it enables people to post topics that they wouldn't have otherwise, thus bringing even more to the menu than before.
I for one, approve.
