If the anonymous poster spams a forum. It's the mods job to point out the spammer.

Almost everyone here uses multiple devices = multiple uids.

I just have one UID

it's really simple with the log-in log out, and I don't have to worry about my IP being blacklisted on stopforumspam.com.

I am posting this with my Epic Privacy Browser. It's Chrome with added security that kills all trackers, cookies etc. So each post ends up on MC server end as a unique UID.

Also makes it fun to post because of Captcha images which can be challenging.
