Just a few days ago, I posted a message as a GUEST on another thread. It was soon after I had posted as myself, but found I wanted to say something that I knew would be thought rude and I realized I didn't want to say it under my name because I didn't want the people involved to get angry with me.

It was very strange, really. I didn't feel any better afterwards, even when I got back the kind of response that would have floored me if it had been directed to my real name, and ultimately I've decided that being anonymous to say something really felt cowardly. If I didn't want to be known personally for having said what I said, I think the better reaction would have been to re-phrase my posting under my name in a way I could live with...I dunno, just my own thought on the subject, and under my own name!..xx..e
