I'll provide my opinion on the subject.

I understand if people want to use anonymous accounts to post about issues on their team. Many people in those situations don't want to discredit their teams or face prosecution from the perpetrators of the very issues they want to post about. Let me give an example. Everyone on my team and quite a few members and mentors of other teams know my Chief Delphi username and the team I represent. If my team were having issues and I wanted to seek guidance, I probably wouldn't use this account to post such a thing.

That being said, creating an anonymous account to post "unpopular" or similar opinions is out of line. I feel comfortable with posting any opinion I have using this account. I own what I post, and if others don't agree with what I write that's fine with me.

One of the keys for me is when I post I always try to be respectful and tactful, regardless of if I am providing technical help or providing a counterpoint to a claim made by a previous poster. In short, it's all in how you present yourself.
