Oh yea have anonymous posting.
People would like to post stuff quickly without having to signup.
Eventually, they will realize that "hey I want to track what i posted", so they sign up.
- giantfuzzypanda 17y agoGood idea, I'll probably add it some time this week.
- marciovm123 17y agoanonymous posts can very quickly change the atmosphere from thoughtful to spiteful, and it makes spamming/trolling much more difficult to stop. So you have to weigh those costs w/ the benefit of one fewer barrier to posting.
- giantfuzzypanda 17y agoTrue, they're great for a site like 4chan. I think I'll just keep arguing for users only for now.
- mdemare 17y agoI'd argue for the opposite, allow anonymous in the beginning (during "bootstrap mode"), to minimize hurdles for new users, and switch to users only when anonymous users become a nuisance.
- giantfuzzypanda 17y agoJust want to let you know, that I've implemented this.
