Topic: Petition to make Minichan forced anonymous
Anonymous A started this discussion 14 years ago #24,546
I prefer Minichan over Tinychan and Scatchan because there are much more quality discussions here. Would the administration even consider making MC forced anonymous? I am tired of seeing the namefag-based circle jerking that goes on here. Minichan has quality and content. Could we leave the dumb stuff to more shit-post-happy boards like Tinychan and Scatchan?

What about forced anon threads, where the OP could request it? idk. I don't always want to be anonymous but I understand why some like it.

Huh, I never even thought about that! That's a really good idea and I'm sure people would be much more willing to accept that rather than mine...

it would make more sense to do if those boards were really related to this one
and we only have like five posters
if we had more posters this would be a really llegitimate proposition

> it would make more sense to do if those boards were really related to this one
Let's face it; the majority of MC users also post on or at least lurk on TC and/or SC. No matter how much resentment some users may show towards these other sites, they are "related" in a way. With that being said, why can't they direct their more shitty posts and namefag circle jerking towards those boards, while keeping the already superior-in-contact-and-quality board cleaner?
> and we only have like five posters
That is clearly false... but I understand your exaggerated reasoning...
> if we had more posters this would be a really llegitimate proposition
Due to the level of content and quality I previously mentioned, I think it's a legitimate proposition regardless of the amount of posters.

mod abuse would become rampant. it'd be like big brother, only the mods and mysterious anonymods know who anyone is.
we'd be held hostage! i say no more forced anonymous than forced unanonymous.

Enforcing rules isn't mod abuse.
How would getting rid of the ability to post with a name create mod abuse?

@previous (A)Well, I saw her today at the reception A glass of wine in her hand I knew she would go meet her connection At her feet was her footloose man
No, you can't always get what you want No, you can't always get what you want No, you can't always get what you want But if you try sometime, you just might find You get what you need
And I went down to the demonstration To get my fair shares of abuse Singing, "We're gonna vent our frustration And if we don't, we don't blow a 50-amp fuse", yeah
And no, you can't always get what you want No, you can't always get what you want Well, no, you can't always get what you want But if you try sometimes you just might find You get what you need, baby
And I went down to the Chelsea drugstore To get your prescriptions filled I was standin' in line with Mr. Jimmy And man, did he look pretty ill
We decided to have a soda "Whatcha favorite flavor?", "Cherry red" And I sung my song to my friend Jimmy And he said one word back to me, that was "Dead" I said
Oh, you can't always get what you want Oh, you can't always get what you want Oh, you can't always get what you want But if you try sometimes, you just might find You get what you need
Oh, you can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want
And I saw her today at the reception In her glass was a bleeding man And she was practised that the art of deception I could tell by her blood-stained hands
Oh, you can't always get what you want Oh, you can't always get what you want
Oh, you can't always get what you want Oh, you can't always get what you want Oh, you can't always get what you want Oh, you can't always get what you want But if you try sometimes you just might find You get what you need

Personally, I don't think that it'd help the board. It'd remove the sense of community and, assuming that it'd be enforced, we'd lose a lot of people who didn't like it and decided to disregard it. Hell, I'd probably go against it myself.
But on a related note, another forced anon day would be fun.

As someone else said - If even for a day it was forced anon, Such wood end up a Fardel and I would just sign my post.
To be, or not to be: that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous Minichan fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of Shitchan troubles,
And by opposing end them? To die: to sleep;
No more; and by a sleep to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to, 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep;
To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub;
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause: there's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life;
For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,
The oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely,
The pangs of despised love, the law's delay,
The insolence of office and the spurns
That patient merit of the unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a bare bodkin? who would fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscover'd country from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all;
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprises of great pith and moment
With this regard their currents turn awry,
And lose the name of action. - Soft you now!
The fair Ophelia! Nymph, in thy orisons
Be all my sins remember'd.
Willy Shakespeare
