It would certainly be an interesting experiment for some social sites to make. I wonder what a non-anonymous 4chan or reddit would look like?

- mahmud 18y agoIt would be like real-life; anonymity is the third pillar necessary for The Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory: http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2004/03/19/ http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2004/03/19/ HN is the first "community" I have ever given my real name to.
- e1ven 18y agoAbsolutely- One of the things I enjoy about the HN community is that is is, most of the time, much more like spending time at a school lounge, than it is like an internet forum. Being more like real-life isn't such a bad thing ;)
