|

I'm not sure if this can be done, but it would be nice if there was some way for us to hide our username when we're posting in the Graveyard so that we can, you know, say interesting things without giving away our AR identities. On invokation.net the easy solution is just to create a new username, but apparently we can't do that here. I know there was a "guest" feature in the past, which was disabled I think due to spamming or something, but how about just hiding our username from everyone but admins? |

We didn't disable it due to spamming... we disabled it due to immature douchebaggery that we didn't like having to moderate. It is cool if used responsibily though... |

So can we have it back? Like, if our usernames are only hidden from view from everyone besides admins? |

We knew who was griefing before, and so did they. We had to ban some regulars from the forum. |

...sorry, I guess I'm being slow on the uptake. Is that a no? |

What I'm saying is that last time around, people knew they weren't really secret from Immortals anyway, but they posted asshat stuff because they were anonymous as far as other players knew. It was like it egged them on to behave even more stupidly juvenile. Even now, some guys still think it is all right to post like dickwads because there's a guy to delete/edit posts around. When actually the forum just looks like worthless trash, with a few bans on the near horizon when pot finally bubbles over. I wouldn't want the guest-posting back to add to this misery - I don't want the extra workload of having to delete/edit/ban so I'd rather just do without the feature that leads there. |
