RE: Why be anonymous? page 5This is a discussion thread · 191 replies Forums · General English Grammar & Vocabulary, Listening & Speaking · General English Grammar Questions The reason I asked my first question as "anonymous" was that I wasn't sure if I wanted to join a site with so many big & obnoxious ads. I also did not know if anyone would answer. It turned out that I got several interesting replies, and Firefox can filter out the ads efficiently, so I joined.

Mount Everest  Senior Member4,453 Anonymous: "Why be anonymous?" Because I don't like to register. I have a lot of registrations in several sites and I get very confused. Can't remember all my passwords and usernames. Besides, there's no advantage registering. If the problem is "I want to know to whom I'm talking to", this forum should provide a space to type a name before posting. My two cents. ;-) If there is any grammar error, sorry for my English . I posted anonymously, then I saw your post. Then I registered.  Ps. Having FB made it quick and easy. New Member14 Anonymous: I have registered before posting a question, however, firstly I followed links on the website expection it to prompt me to log in should it not recognise my IP address (as most websites do, ie ebay). Secondly, I just replied to a question but didn't log in as I can't remember the login name i gave. Still working that out! Dave Phillips TanitActually, I think ads are only visible to anons.

New Member01 Anonymous: I agree that it would be better for people not to be anonymous. However, I applied for membership to this forum over two weeks ago, and have still not received an acceptance e-mail - and yes, I have checked my Spam and everything. So why should such a simple procedure take so long? Is there a long waiting list or something? Show more
