Please do not challenge persons choosing to go anonymous. It’s a feature available in the group and should be respected. If you don’t care for this, you are welcome to use one of the groups that does not support the anon feature. Comments will be removed. Please use spam report thread or pm admin to report.

Thank you!

I have no issue with or using anon myself. However those who use it for the express purpose of being rude should be called out for it. Admin can see who they are without us reporting.

And admin rely on us to help report things because they have lives and can't or don't see everything all the time.

Or we're adults, so maybe we don't need to be tattling to the teacher? These women are kind enough to devote their free time to keeping this board up, so let's not expect them to play mommy when our feelers get hurt. If you want censorship because someone says something you don't agree with, there's plenty of social media that will police people that might offend your delicate sensibilities. Was that too rude pumpkin?

I appreciate everything the ladies do to keep this site going and you are absolutely correct, people can leave the site and/or stop donating if they don’t like the rules but I also think it’s okay to give feedback before doing that.

I understand not calling every single anon who are asking for advice liars and trolls, giving an unpopular opinion etc. because that is what that feature is for.

But, I agree that people shouldn’t have to go tattle every time someone uses the anon button to be a bitch or insult someone because we aren’t allowed to say anything to them about their behavior.

I’ll always support the admins final decision but if everyone is expected to respect the feature (which is totally understandable), not allowing anons to use the feature to insult people by automatically deleting those comments as well is a fair suggestion.

Also, if someone is insulting someone they shouldn’t be too delicate when it comes to the response, so that goes both ways.

Obviously, we don’t want the anonymous feature to be used primarily as a means to insult other members. We are all adults here. We should be able to scroll past, respond without resorting to name calling, etc. By no means are we saying anonymous posters get a free pass on their word choices over those who aren’t anonymous. By challenging, we are more referring to the continual calling out screen name guesses of anonymous users. We have seen a few posts recently, some brought to our attention, in which several replies were nothing but back and forth over who the anonymous was and arguing over the anonymous guessing game. This is more what we are referring to. I hope that clears things up.

Fine with me. I never use anonymous. I also don’t “call out” anons for being anons. I’m an adult; I try to behave as such. I only report the porn spam.
