If RallyPoint had an option to post anonymously do you think it would be beneficial or have a negative impact on the community?

On one hand I think there would be more attacks and trolling. On the other while we are built on transparency, I can see how some people, especially those still serving, are discouraged from posting or reaching out for help.

Why not own what you say? Everybody has big mouths when they are anonymous. Its why i stay away from all the Facespace, and Instachat crap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We have enough badass internet warriors behind computers. Anonymity will just exacerbate the situation.

SSG Carlos Madden I vote that users have to use their real name as stated in the procedures. Users should not be allowed to continue posting without being verified. Without controls in place, we are inviting more attacks and trolling.

We learned that it's not 100% realistic to do this while simultaneously allowing the network to grow. This is why unverified profiles have lower access limits to RallyPoint and get locked out easily until they verify.

I am just fine with my opinions, posts, and responses being fully visible to anyone who wants to see it. If they don't like what I say, that's fine - let me know and engage. Agree with me - that's fine too.
I feel that if you are willing to type it, you should own it.
And if you are worried that your boss or your mom will not like your posts, perhaps you should reconsider typing it on the internet. I feel that anonymous and pseudonym communications are in large part responsible for the decline in civil discourse.

100%. I think my thought are those who may be having internal struggles and are shy about posting who they are because of the attached stigma of depression, PTSD, appearing "weak"...
