At the same time the moderator oversight would insure that the system is used in a professional manner, and is not abused.

I agree with you that in some situations there is a need on CD to allow people to post anonymously. However when I see someone creating a throwaway account and post in several threads and express their opinion, then I have a problem with it. Accounts without team number or name should be restricted to only be able to post in the thread that they started and nowhere else. I don't know if that is technically possible.
