    Anonymity. It's good. It's not facebook. A hot chick has no more clout than an ugly, basement dwelling, one eyed cyclops. People don't know who you are so you are judged by the quality of your posts/comments. People also feel welcome to discuss a variety of topics without their mother, brother, professor, or fuckbuddy judging the "real" them by these comments.

So true. I love the "pseudonymity" it and other sites enable.
