Don't call me Junior
David:
I have been a member here since the 90's. Yes, the idea of getting rid of anonymous posting has been discussed in the past. However, things have changed and it's time to talk about it again. The post from Interesting Doug is totally on target. All the crap on the main page is killing the usability of the site.
Yes I know that m_s has always been a free-wheeling place. It's just that the tenor has changed. Instead of being a fun place, with lots of engaged people, it now has become a place where a small minority clog the threads with insults and off-topic junk.
I'm not one of the "don't say anything bad about Moz" people. Good God, he's such an easy target much of the time. It's not the Moz-critical stuff that bothers me, it's just the pointless bitching and attacks on each other. Who wants to listen to that? I rarely can get very deep into new threads before the carping overwhelms any meaningful comments and I give up.
David, how about trying it for 2 weeks with no anonymous posting and see how it goes?
