in reply to We should elminate: Anonymous, and DOWN-voting

I would prefer Anonymous postings versus throw-away accounts.

I haven't seen downvotes become a problem, ever, on this site. A worthy post is never hidden because of downvotes - if it's controversial and somewhat abrasive then it invites downvotes for disagreement. Reporting is not a valid way to communicate disagreement. Plus my understanding of the mechanism is downvotes don't much matter unless there's an overwhelming number of them.
