My only original point was a personal one that if guests can post then there is a danger that the board I do enjoy pretty much most of all may suffer (I even said at the end of my post IMHO).
So mutual misunderstanding I think is from what we suffer my friend.
And for that, I warmly and sincerely apologise.

*huggles on CTB*
I wonder if anyone lurking will observe what rational people can accomplish if the genuinely try to communicate with each other? (One can dream!)
I want to believe...no, change that...I *need* to believe that the "tone" of the board will always be set by the grownups. Certainly, with the new allowing of anonymous posters, we'll have drive by insults. But it will always be our choice whether or not we rise when baited...or amuse ourselves by pissing, should it be the mood to do so.
Remember being a newbie? The questions, the concerns...the deep seated feeling that the question you're about to ask is going to make you look like an idiot and no one will ever do business with you again? I remember that vividly. One of the first thing I thought of was that anonymous posting will allow the novice webmasters to have those posts that always seem to start with "this may be a dumb questions, but..." without fear. All the novices out there reading this that have questions...well...ask them!
Don't register yet, just post your questions and get your answers anonymously. When you feel ready, register and establish your identity in the business.
CTB, you can look at anything from different perspectives. Will we get assholes? You betcha. Will we get people who genuinely want help but have been too timid to ask? I most devotely hope so.
You and I can get together sometime and run a workshop on "How to Be an Adult in Adult."
