HERE’S THE ANSWER

Gleaned from this thread as of 8/18 2:18PM

At least I think this is the answer. Or answers.

  1. Because when you take the IRL identity stuff out of the process it makes communication smoother.

  2. Tradition. Yes, we do it this way because it’s the way we’ve been doing it for a long time. Since the birth of Facebook or whatever.

  3. So crazy people won’t track me down. Which seems crazy. But that’s just the kind half-acknowledged half-conscious consensual fantasy that people seem to buy into. So maybe it’s true.

    We dont have to be anonymous here. Go ahead and post your name, address, where you work. Did you just cringe at the thought? Thats why we’re anonymous here.

      My name is Yoshikage Kira. I’m 33 years old. My house is in the northeast section of Morioh, where all the villas are, and I am not married. I work as an employee for the Kame Yu department stores, and I get home every day by 8 PM at the latest. I don’t smoke, but I occasionally drink. I’m in bed by 11 PM, and make sure I get eight hours of sleep, no matter what. After having a glass of warm milk and doing about twenty minutes of stretches before going to bed, I usually have no problems sleeping until morning. Just like a baby, I wake up without any fatigue or stress in the morning. I was told there were no issues at my last check-up. I’m trying to explain that I’m a person who wishes to live a very quiet life. I take care not to trouble myself with any enemies, like winning and losing, that would cause me to lose sleep at night. That is how I deal with society, and I know that is what brings me happiness. Although, if I were to fight I wouldn’t lose to anyone.

      I cringe at the thought, yes. But that’s because I have angered people here.

      So is that it? You want to be anonymous because you have angered people here and fear those people coming after you?
