No.170
the faq and rules pages used to mention that users are encouraged to post anonymously, to build community spirit. I was thinking on it, and I've removed both of these instances.
I think it's true that anonymous posting does create a unique sort of community experience, but at the same time, one of marzichan's key goals is to foster connection, and anonymity tends to make such opportunities for connection much more fleeting and rare. I don't want users to feel compelled by the site to post anonymously when that could deprive them of the opportunity to be recognized and make new friends, so please - feel free to use names and trips to your heart's content :)
of course, there's nothing wrong with choosing to post anonymously either, and since this is an imageboard, I'm guessing most users will still choose to post that way most of the time. but there should be no shame in posting with a name or trip here if you'd like to.
as always, feedback is welcome m(_ _)m
