On being consistent
My 2 Cents:
, the discussion didn't go exactly the way I intended
Sorry about this Rosen mate, but-- Duh!! You used a quote from a message directly about guest posts and referred to your own board name comparing it to being anonymous (which = guest!) on the board, and talked about other group members being hidden compared to having a known identity on the board.
Your intent may not have been for things to turn sour, I'll give you that, but it really looks like your intent was to address the guest issue in a backhanded way. Maybe you are incapable of acknowledging that to yourself. Some things just remain unconscious.
You can't plant seeds, water them daily, and then say that you never intended for anything to grow.

wow -- I had to go get some popcorn and a soda to read this thread. It's as good as a matinee. Big Jake ,,, haha ,,, next we'll see John Wayne on here duking it out. Whooaa little pilgrim ,,, simmer down now. Well, whether or not you agree with the verbiage within the message, posting as guest instead of a name is clearly an effort to limit identification. I would have to log out and then back in to be a guest -- that's too much work. :? But, I guess if you share a computer and others might snoop your posts, then I can see the reason, but I would still sign a name at the bottom. I'm here to learn how other ACON's are dealing with their damage and I will glady help if I can. Having an ID helps accomplish that. We are CON's, yes, but first we are Adults (I think).

having an ID did not help me accomplish that!
I had an ID at first and a few people on the board decided they knew my children better than I do and they must be being neglected or damaged and when I protested I must be in denial!
Just as people here today assumed I ( 'guest' ) am 'stuck' and not facing issues because I choose to be anonymous.
I am sticking with 'Guest' id because its what works for me, I never use it to hide behind saying anything malicious or provocative ( like the majority of guests incidentally ) I post as supportively, creatively or informatively as I can, and as I understand it the board owner posted specifically to say posting as guest is OK with him.
There are several nice guests here, and a few people with names who need to be a little more flexible!

sorry, I don't have a clue what you are talking about. Anyhow, how can we tell you from any other guest, but maybe that would only be relevant if you were asking a question. Nobody is trying to rewrite any rules here, or force you into anything. I can't even figure out which guest is who anymore. If someone has insulted you, send them a rasberry emoticon and ignore them. I know that I have had my feelings hurt also on message boards and chats, but as an ACON who survived a stolen childhood, I can deal with words on a monitor.
