(as a personal policy I am going to be refraining from replying directly to nodes posted Anonymously. It is so easy to set up a user account on Perl Monks that I see little justification for anonymous postings here)

Kinda unfair to the new folks that might just have one question. I know I posted as anonymonk once or twice before I registered, and being rude to new users keeps folks from joining. I should also add I am less likely to join sites if they don't allow anonymous users, as they are more apt to turn into cliques. There are some exceptions, but it's nice to keep things open until there are spam issues. I do disagree with the idea of using anonymonk to whine in PerlMonks discussion though, but hey that's a small deal. Live a little.

Maybe, just maybe, that anonymonk has a ton to contribute in the community and just didn't register yet. Wanna slap them down? I don't think we do. They are our friends. Awwwwww ......
