Good afternoon!

What exactly do you mean by anonymity?
Users indicate on the forum the information they want to reveal about themselves.

This does not include an email address, which is only available to forum administrators.

I mean, like 4-chan where it forces no login to post.

Hello there,

Razor helped you with this matter but I only wanted to point out that there is no way you can make their "name" show up. They will all be shown as "Guest".

Regards,
TheCrow.
