Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

Make anonymity optional

As per title: in an anonymous thread, let posters decide whether to post anonymously or not.

The default option (i.e. checkbox setting) should be to post anonymously.


One bot to rule them all, one bot to find them. One bot to bring them all... and with this cliché blind them.

Re: Make anonymity optional

I would like this, since it would stop any sort of possible identity theft issues. We shouldn't have to wait for a flag and a moderator response just to tell if someone's lying about their identity.

for fun. if there's a lot of anons in a topic, the avatars make it easier to see if the same person posts multiple times.

Add my woots to yours.

Oh hey wouldn’t that tagging suggestion come in handy right about now?

Although I think Diff reads every post anyway. I suppose in this case it’s more of a prompt to reply.

Re: Make anonymity optional

every post in Forum Discussion, anyway. It was the first forum I moderated it will always be my favorite.
