Can't we just rename Anonymous Monk back to the standard "Anonymous Coward" as Slashdot rightfully dubbed it?

Defenses of Anonymous Monk probably don't have any weight for you when they come from Anonymous Monk, but keep one thing in mind: there are more than one of us. I have seen amazing posts from other Anonymous Monks. The reasons they post anonymously are apparently beyond your ability to understand, but I wouldn't want to drive them away at any cost. Getting rid of Anonymous Monk, or delegating him to the sidelines by calling him a "Coward," would be bad for the Monastery.

If you can't post random crap on here without getting every single detail soapy-clean, then this forum is an exercise in pedantic blather.

Again you complain about criticism of post, and for some reason you blame Anonymous Monk. If you didn't notice, revdiablo is the one who posted the comments you are so upset about. If you're still upset about them, you should take it up with him. I would recommend you just calm down and forget about the whole thing. It seems like you're taking it all too personally. But I'm just a Coward, so why should you listen to me?

I am happy this isn't Slashdot, and I disagree;
Anonymity is a good thing in this place, see:

On PM you will find (among some Anonymous Cowards - agreed) a number of Anonymous Contributors, Anonymous Donors, Anonymous Enquirers, Anonymous Inquirers too, Anonymous Petitioners, Anonymous Sceptics, Anonymous Skeptics too, Anonymous Example Code Testers, ... in short, Anonymous Monks.
