Fair enough. I've been through enough rounds of "real names" social networks at this point to make it a hard line. I'm likely an outlier in this respect, and my segment might be small enough that you're still able to scale. Good luck!

Sorry to hear, but I appreciate the feedback.

I get the wariness thing. The anon functionality is pretty different from what people have seen before and it might take a little time for people to get comfortable. Especially weird when we're saying using real names protects your identity more.

I'll see if there's some wording change on the signup page that can help the next guy get over this hump.
