Once again, something that has been said many times - There has never been any objections about people posting as GUESTS who make the minimal effort involved in putting a pseudonym (such as #2 for example) after the GUEST.

GUEST,#2 - I'll explain why I find naked GUEST posts inconvenient (and thanks for having the sense to stick a number on your posts). Sometimes I read through a thread and want to reply at the end, and refer to some post made way up the thread.

If it's been made by a person who's put in a name or a number, it's an easy enough matter to find them in the index at the beginning and track down the post to have another look at it before writing.

But if it's just one among a fair number of naked GUESTS in a long thread, it's not convenient at all, either for me writing my post or for anyone reading it who might want to check that I haven't got things wrong. And that inconvenience has been intentionally caused by the naked GUEST.

And when a naked GUEST starts referring back in any thread about anything to something they have said before, but without giving a link or a clear indication of which post they might have written and be talking about, it just gets ridiculous.

Back to the question in the thread heading. Best thing is to assume that any naked GUEST is the same person as all the other naked GUESTS, and ignore them. Good advice I occasionally ignore, which is a mistake.
