Re^2: Assigning unique identifiers within a discussion thread to each distinct anonymous commenter

[marto]

"A big concern for me would simply be ... spam!"

If you'd actually read this thread you'd see spam from a registered account. Again, had you read this thread you'd also have seen Re^2: Assigning unique identifiers within a discussion thread to each distinct anonymous commenter.

You have started many topics (Huffington Post: "Let's Do Away With Anonymous Posting" has links to others) complaining about this, and have yet to make a valid argument.

"Requiring an actual identifiable login ... identifiable, at least, to the gods ... would perhaps help to reduce that problem. Now, you can have the “anonymity” that you perhaps crave, but you are still accountable"

Oh dear.
