McGrath, I've posted anonymously before because I was asking for opinions and felt that knowledge of who I was would affect the answers. Folks mainly ignored my posts. I wonder if they would have if my name had been on them. One thing I have noticed is that if an anonymous poster disagrees with someone, they stand a greater chance of getting a less than reasonable reply. Just my opinion.

Another possible reason is if Temp Anon had posted under their true identity, it may have been obvious who made the incorrect assumption and embarrassed them.
