Seconded

The idea that we are 'all anonymous' isn't true, of course. I am perfectly happy to answer Lord Raven (for instance) because I have an idea of where he comes from and what his reactions are likely to be to certain kinds of post. Hence I am unlikely to get ambushed and he is unlikely to be offended. In other words, I may not know who he is (nor particularly want to) but at least I know it is him I am replying to.
And that is how I would prefer it to remain.
Canny everyone on here gets attacked by anonymous guests and they do cause a flurry of posts. You will see.
Why don't you ask Northern to stop guest posting if you don't like it and can't cope with it? There's no point in whining about it to anyone else is there?
Learn to read you fucking idiot!!

Pretty close, yes.
Canny old boy,you will get used to it because it is true that guest posting envigorates this place. Just accept it.

It does my head in this as this forum is set up for guest posting, you call them cowards but at end of the day they can use a regular username whilst still posting with the guest facility, and you could still be frickin clueless as to whom they are. Have you actually ever contemplated that you may not have crossed forum paths with them before and they are just respomding to posts written on here?
Or is that just a tad too logical, an option?

Of course guest posting is different to members posting. A member posts using the same name but a guest can use different names so nobody will know which are their posts, or they just post as "guest" which doesn't distinguish them from other people called "guest". They can do one post after another using different names and pretend to be different people - someone posting as a member doesn't do that. That's why most of them are cowards - they're not prepared to join and always use the same name - or they're a member who doesn't want to be seen to be posting vile things. If a guest posts nice things, that's different - they're obviously not hiding in order to bitch.
Of course, a member of admin or a mod has to sit there and decide which guest posts to approve though - the posts don't get here all by themselves.

It was for the benefit of people who are relatively new here and might not be used to cowardly guests.
