May I suggest adding a little ID next to users in threads? Anonymous 18-12-22 19:39:43 No.24216

Just like on the original /pol/ (gross I know) (pic related) the ID is a random short string of letters and numbers used in one thread and then never again.

If the mods/admins could implement such a feature, that would be very cool.

Thank you very much for all the work that ya'll do.

We implemented this 3-4ish years ago and it caused so much controversy and backlash that we had to immediately repeal it. If there is popular demand for it now then maybe we can look at it again but it seems unlikely.

i dont get why there was backlash in the first place, anonymity isnt an issue since the ids refresh right?

No that glows. Back in 8chan days those could be used to calculate a user's IP. Don't remember how.

Also me and my sister use this site and people would think we're samefagging when we're just posting from the same house.

I think there's also possibly an issue with dynamic IPs and people getting the same ID, to say nothing of, like, multiple people posting from the same coffee shop or whatever.

Unique IPs: 5
