There are 2 types of anonymous; 1) visitors that can only post anonymously *or* 2) some members that are so mean spirited and spineless that will log out to post anonymously.......
Social psych is awash with studies that suggest anonymity breeds harsh responses in many different contexts. Why would the Internet be any different.
I suggest just accepting that there are such people, some of them are here, and no matter what one does or does not do or say, some of them will respond. But, two seconds after you close the message, page, site, or computer does it matter... really? Only if you let it or make it so.
I care. Regarding members that post under the guise of "anonymous", I'm of the opinion that if you're person enough to say it be person enough to own it.

All the best and have fun, despite all!!!
