Does Matthew know who the Anonymous posters are?

  • I guess it wouldn't be truly anonymous if he did. 
    Is there a technology where not even the site admin would not be able to know who is posting?

  • Under the old platform, he most certainly did.  When an anonymous poster once posted multiple times acting like different people and calumniating someone, he "unmasked" the anonymous poster and let people know that this was not acceptable action.

    I presume he has the same ability on the new forum, though he would have to confirm it.

  • Yes, I'm pretty sure he can figure out at least the IP address of anonymous posters.

  • It's only anonymous to other viewers.  Everyone had to sign up in the beginning and you must be logged in with your "username" to post so there is a rabbit trail that can be followed if need be.

    So be nice to Matthew  ;)

    and Mater  ;)

    or you'll get  :fryingpan:


    ;D
