I agree - there are a few things I'd feel a bit happier posting under an anonymous title. Maybe this could be added to replies too? It would be pointless having the ability to ask something really embaressing if the replies were unable to be anon too. Maybe there should be a setting where the alias's were not displayed for certain threads, enabled by the thread starter.
I have one alias that has nothing do do with my real details (this one) that I use on forums etc where I wish to remain a bit of a ghost and I use my real email address etc on those where I feel I can let others know who I am. Even so, I still feel very hesitant to post some things, as it wouldn't really be that hard for someone who knows me to work out who I was - A lot of posts contain odd references to my location, my age, my work place/type, hobbies etc, so I could be identified if anyone really wanted to do it. Thus, the ability to become anon would be very useful.
