Are posts anonymous on here?

I need to know before I put a post up.

Depends what you mean by anonymous?? Your nickname always comes up with your post, and there is an option to post comments to just the community( just after you have typed yr message there is a choice to say "everyone" or "community only".....one never really knows who is "in" the community mind you.....could be my neighbours/boss/ family that I complain about ! :-)

Hi Angel. Our user-names are specifically for the purpose of anonymity so, unless you provide a photo, there's no way anyone on or off this forum can learn your true identity.

Please feel free to share your comments. xx

Hi Medical Angel,

As long as you lock your posts they will stay only in the community! As Moo196 said, check the box " Community only" and your post can't be seen on the web outside of here... So as long as you haven't told your enemy you are a member of this group with a nick name that they would recognise you are safe here you nny. Hope this helps...

well you have account so it's linked to what ever email you used? plus any information in any posts before? ie stuff that could identify your self.

Internet as a whole is fundamentally not a anonymous place, in that to post this say my computer has had to connect to healthunlocked computers you can make it more difficult but fudemently your traceable.

I personally don't post anything that i'm not happy for others to see. this is my real name etc.
