violation of anonymity

Temporary "violation of anonymity" to one person, when the reason for anonymity was clearly given. As far as I'm concerned, the person is still (or is once again) anonymous. I don't know their usual monk name. During the short time that knew it, I didn't tell anyone else.

Yeah, I don't see how this was "an extreme measure". Maybe you could convince me of it, but I'm not even close at this point. I do take anonymity very seriously.

Now, actually doing something that I'd call "violation of anonymity" is something that I would consider extreme.

Which is sad, because I rather liked it here.

So are you concerned that a couple of gods might connect your non-anonymous monk name with some nodes that you posted anonymously and therefore you wish to no longer use the site? If so, then I'd appreciate some insight into why that is so strong a concern for you. If not, I'd appreciate some insight into the more extreme problem you are projecting from this incident.
