it´s really redicoulous to show up as an anonymus in this forum. i hardly read your messages, since it looks to me, like someone, who hides behind anonymus, has nothing to proof or is even telling lies.

Actually, anonymous posting is not allowed in this forum.

In our old forum, i had no way to prevent anonymous posting. when i migrated the messages from the old forum to the new, i had to analyze each post to determine IP address, email address, name, and try to build a new list of registered users for this forum while minimizing duplicates, etc.

any message which i couldn't figure out just got posted here as "anonymous", with a "(by posters-name)" after the subject line.

hope this clarifies.

John,

Thanks for that... I think we're all tired of people posting anonymously to start conflicts or arguments, or just posting bullshit that's not true. This should filter out most of the nonsense.

had posted sometimes 'anonymous' in the old forum, but not to hide myself... just forgot it. believe it or not. if i want to hide, then i would have taken another name... :grin:

well, also in my opinion this new forum is a far better place, where people are not disturbed by some lamers with aggressive attitude.
