the difference is that when i post something, it is connected to the rest of my reputation on the board. that means i personally can be called out if someone thinks i am over the top. people can pm me if they feel particularly insulted. or, they can see it is me and take it in context with the rest of what i post. dude, i don't even care if you disagree with things i say, but have the damn balls to post with your regular userid. otherwise you are an impostor. as for calling slandering* anonymous posters "losers", that's what i think. losers. Semblerites. chicken-shits. i'm doing them a favor, encouraging them to get over paranoia and stand behind what they say.
trusted people have my name, phone number, address and maybe even ssn! not you! not the whole damn internet! Pffff!
*not all anonymous posters
