Can someone please point me to the explainer that tells me what Anonymizing is?

anonymization - The act of removing a user’s identity from the BBS without deleting their posts. More info: General Moderation Topic - #1805 by orenwolf

20 minutes between their last post and the news about anonymization. I don’t know what to make of that. Other than :frowning:.

Huh. I know they’d had some questions about their new role, but this seems kind of sudden. And a bummer. For us. Hopefully the right thing for them.

New role? Is there something happening on the BBS I am missing due to my IRL obligations?

ETA: is this okay to link to this? I don’t want to undo anonymity

You’re not removing anonymity, that post just shows that someone who was a Leader is now anonymized.

Hover_Board has been given a timeout for what is an unfortunately familiar affliction - failing to read the article and being corrected for it leading to 75% of the replies on a topic being about them and their behaviour, rather than about the original article itself.

There’s a lot to be said for the power of self-reflection, realizing you’ve made an error, and stepping away. We’ve given this user some time to do just that.

Hm, who nuked the topic where everyone and their dog were somewhat missing the point of the headline in regard to the (rather improbable unpossible) next prez? I thought it would possibly not deteriorate further, and people would possibly even stop arguing and agree that most the discussion was a communication problem?
