Why so secretive?

I guess some people are just insecure to the point that they can’t even voice their own opinion ONLINE without being afraid.

Yeah that’s what I wanna know too! Even posts about things that there’s no reason to be secret about like “How do I shampoo my dog?” :/

That;s exactly the same way I feel - even some of the more serious ones the whole point of this community is to help each other buthalf of these people have no identity or way of getting to know them. That’s the entire reson people chose a screen name, avatar, and location, what is there to hide?

Out of my bajillion posts, in my year and a sixth on this site, I’ve posted maybe… twenty of them anonymously. Why? because I wanted to see what my anon icon looked like whenever I used a new computer. People need to learn how to not blow up their computers so often, I guess…

Yeah a possibility although most of the time were all used to seeing you on here. I’ve posted or commented Anon a few times but that was becasue I knew someone on the site.

What about Anon users who use their real id to comment on their “ANON POST” therefore releasing their “real” identity

Purposefully I’ve never posted or replied anonymously, and I never will. I will stand behind who I am and what I say without apologies or embarrassment.

Sometimes I answer as Anon as the reply would ruin my saintly status. But then I forget to click it again and ‘out’ myself in the next reply. I’d make a rubbish spy. Anyway - I love getting shot down - so I like to leave my name imprinted on the post. Also I sign every reply I write - just in case they arent sure it’s me - Mas
