I got anonymized without fanfare on Tuesday, so they’ve been doing some in the interim.
Yeah, it was the ones who came in and obstinately insisted their opinions were the truth that cried hardest about the ‘echo chamber’, as I remember things.
And your username is changed to anon<bunchanumbers>. No link to your original identity unless you typed it out in text.
The only other one I’m aware is Rob, who made an appearance very recently.
There is both #news and #blog, although that second one might be locked down.
I do not recall ever being granted any kind of permission. If memory serves, Rob gave us kind of an informal “We’ll look the other way.” which is why we spent so much time coming up with a different name.
Likely, but probably not maliciously.
I don’t see why. We’re just another website in a sea of websites.
Yes, but it was also 100% my mistake. I didn’t realize at the time that it was a trade name. I just thought it was something the audience called themselves. It was important to me that we named ourselves. I wasn’t looking to change it immediately, but I expected it would change eventually.
As my mother would say, “Hide and watch.”
There is some protection in obscurity, for sure, but we have the proverbial bat under the counter in case some undesirables do show up.
I asked the same earlier this year. Remember those comments from users with names like anon_94668357? They used to show a username you’d recognise. The account with the old name is removed, and all activity from that account uses the anon_ name instead.
Poor thing! I hope you let it fly around for exercise once in awhile.
…and feed them bananas (just look at them!) should they be a fruit bat.
We desperately need the ROFL, Hugs, and Puke reaction emojis, STAT!
I went ahead and PMed Sekhmet about anonymising/anonymizing. Orenwolf responded to my request earlier in the week, but I think he may have interpreted it to mean wait-until-the-last-minute. plus, I’m sure he has so much to do right now and I’m paranoid it won’t get done 
Still want to know who Sekhmet is in Clark Kent mode 
The goddess Hathor, according to some 
She sure seemed like A Very Good Kitty.
Edited to add pretty pictures of those pretty Ladies.
I don’t see any vetoes yet for my invite rec. So hoping this is good news, i plan to send an invite in exactly an hour 
please respond or reach out privately should there be any thoughts and i will treat your thoughts with respect.
I thought that was moist, or female…
Anonymizing complete.
Sekhmet is definitely the person to talk to if you are concerned about it getting done in time.
@MerelyGifted I have always felt a strong affinity for Sekhmet and Hathor!
Do you like beer and dancing?
BTW, pulled the trigger on anonymizing, my crappy posts are no longer mine!
Long live anon77190095
I have zero issues with LurkingGrue.
I noticed that.
In fact, I took a bloody screenshot, out of pure envy.
I asked Ken to anonymise me.
Guess he’s busy.
Might just be time to beg the Egyptian Godthingymajig
i thought i had seen grue already here. perhaps they are Lurking?
That sounds like a “there are only two genders” joke.
