Anonymity is only "not" allowed when that person is making strong accusations or comments towards something or someone. Merely being on the board anonymously is fine if the conversation is somewhat neutral. Another exception might be made if what the person is saying is nothing but factual and they prove what they are saying is true. In other words if someone points out a fraudulent auction, and says why it is, and it truly is fraudulent, then I am not sure we need to know who they are. It's a case by case situation. Overall, anonymity is somewhat frowned upon but there are exceptions which are fine. It's sort of another loose rule but the more controversial the statement the less anonymity is allowed, in general. I hope this explains our (us moderators) position. take care
