The same messages posted by the GUEST in this thread would probably not have been treated this way if they had been posted by a member. And a member would get more respect for espousing the very same views as our GUEST here. On almost every non-musical (and even some that are musical) thread started by a GUEST, regardless of quality, some jackass member will either say something like "TROLL ALERT!!!", or go nuts and start making weird, paranoid accusations that they KNOW who the GUEST is, and they're not going to take it anymore, dammit. And then a bunch more will predictably join in against the GUEST, as has happened on this thread, blah blah blah. What the fuck? Why do you people care who's writing? Why not judge the thread on its merits, rather than its originator? What exactly is it that bothers you people so much about the various GUESTS' anonymity?

"Uh, they take no responsibility for their words! At least a member signs his/her NAME!" ----You

Well, some do. Most members have dumbass nicknames, though, such as katlaughing, black walnut, beadie, and Lepus Rex. And even us dumbass-nicknamed members get more respect than a GUEST. I doubt more than two or three Mudcatters know/remember my real name, and if you did, it probably wouldn't mean anything to you. So why should my dopey posts as a MEMBER be given more respect that a GUEST's, who's name no-one knows?
Grr. :)
