review of the rules

The reason Proviso Probe doesn't allow anonymous posting is that discussions get difficult to follow with multiple people posting as "anonymous".

If you aren't going to use the Blogger feature that allows you to create a pseudonym, please incorporate a pseudonym into your posts, e.g. "Mrs. Coffee says:".

I don't enforce this rule as strictly if I think a person is posting to Proviso Probe for the first time, e.g. a story about a death and someone is leaving a comment about the deceased.
