Yeah, like it's not anonymous. Someone figured out that you can see all ip addresses (tied to comments) when you open up firebug.
I fixed that actually. You can still get around my fix but I will fix the fix later.
So it's totally anonymous except you store the IP addresses, huh?
Correct.
Pretty misleading.
The whole point of your experiment was to see how people would act if completely anonymous, right? They aren't. So your experiment is flawed.
I can't reply to you so I'm replying to myself.
I honestly thought you were going for full anonymity. In fact, my first thought was that you were taking it a step further than 4chan and that it would be interesting to watch.
They're anonymous in the context of the conversation. Anytime you visit a website, you know your IP is being logged.
Seeing as how there aren't terms of service maybe YOUR flawed. It's a web app that never guaranteed your privacy.
"oak is an experiment. what will people act like if they are truly anonymous?" His words.
