Anonymous posting should remain for now. We have mostly gotten interesting information from anonymous posters, I think. There have been a few wild accusations thrown around by anonymous posters, but not too much. Further, only a jackass would read an anonymous post on here and take it as absolute fact. The anonymous nature of it makes it questionable (but not necessarily dismissable).
What is more disturbing is the fraudulently attributed post.
