i was gonna say that ur freaking out too much about this, and that many many other boards are WAY more strict... like, they dont even consider allowing anon posting, and some even have admission processes that u have to go through to be accepted... and after that, u still only see some of the forums until u "prove" yourself, so this board is very lenient...
on the other hand, i'd understand cuz prolly a lot of ppl here have weird problems etc, and they wanna post totally anonymously ;p

I wanted to clarify that
all posts made on LoveShack.org are anonymous to other users
unless you chose to reveal your identity. Registering for an account here will not reveal who you are so long as you don't post that information in a message or in your profile. That said, we do log IP addresses of all posts to prevent abuse and for statistical purposes. This information is not available to users on this site and is a common practice throughout the internet.
If you chose to give out your full name or e-mail address, then you have identified yourself. The act of registering will only allow you to ensure that no one else uses your username to post messages and that you can use the new features of the site, such as e-mail notification when someone replies to subscribed thread or forum.
We are working to make this clearer in the registration process and throughout the site.
Even allowing users to e-mail you via the site will not disclose your e-mail address to others. The e-mail is sent through the forum system and the sender is never able to see your e-mail address. The only time they would obtain access to your e-mail address would be if you decided to reply via e-mail and not use the forum. I will make this clearer in the appropriate places on the site.
If you want to post with a different username, simply log out (using the link at the bottom of the forum's home page) and post your message using a username that isn't currently registered. Signing up for an account here does not prevent you from using other available names. You
will need to log out to do it, however.
You do
not need to register to use this site.
I hope this helps!
Paul
