Okay, you're right, I shouldn't have made a blanket statement 
like that. However, while you have some good points, 
anonymity can still be achieved with a handle. ^_- And, 
if the reason why you don't use a handle is because you don't 
want to start a fight, my reasoning is that you probably 
won't intend to post a pre-flame/flame anyway - and if it's 
perceived as a pre-flame/flame, then a simple clarification 
or apology will work (and is attached then to your handle, 
and perceptions of your handle works accordingly). I hope 
that makes some sense... 

Of the numerous other public forums I'm a member of, login 
is always required. This does NOT MEAN that flames will be 
*eliminated* - it will make it easier to respond to the 
correct person without further misunderstanding, for instance 
(e.g. previous threads where two anon posters posted and one 
was a flame, then everyone else flamed the wrong anon...).
