Uh, what? The whole point of 4chan is that you're anonymous, no registration needed.

  You're not anonymous to admins, only to users. Every post is still associated with a big fat naked IP address and it's a single click to ban a user of a specific post.

    Banning an IP address != Banning submissions from every client that hasn't posted before 11/15/10

      I wasn't addressing the problem of banning Tumblr users, but correcting the often mistaken and repeated claim that 4chan is an anonymous forum. But seriously, if the mood stays "for real" it's not going to be hard to shutdown and ban tumblr users.

  Ha, how ignorant I was? Thanks for enlightening. As I mentioned before, I have never been to 4chan.
