Oh yeah, um, I also don’t need anyone to “save my honor”, so whoever is attempting to, cut that shit out. ---

Well she does run a website and a forum. Could be someone else who posts there that pointed you to the site. ---

But she _is_ the one who e-mailed me. That’s address in the quote is the address I’m getting the e-mails from. ---

She made a full confession on the other board (oh dear. board war). She should feel really really stupid for she thinks she is banned here. She’s not, unless her status has not been changed, but to prove she is, she posted a screen shot of the “You do not have permission to access this page” page I get pretty darn frequently as a result of being uncoordinated and clicking on the wrong space on the pull-down forum menu. ---

She’s admitted she e-mailed, and has also said that she didn’t IM you, and that it’s not her nickname either. I did ask her how my name came up, and she said that came from the comment that she’d never seen a non-Ms. person tell anyone they hated their own vagina before. I’d really like to know who the hell is IMing you and using my name though. Because I don’t want anybody thinking I asked someone to. ---

Pardon me, full confession as to being Anniee on here, not to IMing **Biggirl**. ---

I didn’t think it was you **catsix** because you don’t come across as stupid. The IMer has been goading me to answer her. Because she thinks everyone is as stupid as she is. It’s been 2 hours or so since I’ve received either an e-mail or an IM. I guess it isn’t so much fun anymore. ---

Since **Anniee** is having difficulties with logging in and having access to the board, I told her that I would put her response here if she wanted, and this is what she has to say about the e-mail and IMs. In the interest of showing that I have not altered this text in any way, not so as to incite any kind of inter-board war, I asked her to post it also on her site. Here goes: > [@](#): > > **Anniee (RunLolaRun451)** > > No, I don’t feel stupid because I didn’t do anything but email someone (whose email is listed) for making an idiot of themselves. Hate their vaginas indeed. > > I am not responsible for the IMs this person is getting, and I question whether there **are** any IMs in fact. I do not threaten people. I published my email (which is **also** my AIM SN) here quite openly, as has been noted - which made me, IMO, not “anonymous.” If I wanted to be sneaky I would have done so, but that is not my style. To what end? > > Catsix is not responsible for who I email, and in fact I’ve never heard her speak about any of the people here. You see, I have my own mind. As does she. Enjoy your vendetta; I steadfastly deny any complicity in anything beyond the email I sent, which was not “secret”. She’d have posted that here herself, except for the difficulty she’s having with logging on. I hope not to extend any hostility, but I believe her when she said she e-mailed but didn’t IM. Other than that, I hope this argument can be dropped. ---

I’ve changed the thread title to more accurately reflect that it’s not OUR Anonymous Coward who is the target. **Anniee** asked to be “deregistered”, so I removed her posting privileges. So I don’t see why she’s complaining that she can’t post if she ASKED to be deregistered. Lynn For the Straight Dope ---

**bobkitty** , you probably should have made it clear that **Biggirl** _herself_ did not say those things. Instead, she was quoting someone. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Biggirl \* > \*\*There’s a user called **Anonymous Coward**? > > If there is then— funny name! \*\* It’s a Slashdot name, as a matter of fact: Slashcode\* allows anyone to append comments to posted articles, and those who aren’t registered (or aren’t signed in) are called **Anonymous Coward**. \*Slashcode: The message board software used by Slashdot and others to enable a specific kind of interactive news site. Simply put, a group of administrators is allowed to post articles, and all discussion happens in threads beneath those articles. There are typically no forums as we would know them, and a thread can split into multiple sub-threads because each new post is either the root of a new thread or in response to a specific post already in a thread. In a typical Slashcode message board, moderation is also fundamentally different from how it exists here. ---

**catsix** , no more posting-by-proxy. **Anniee** wanted to leave, Lynn accomodated her. That’s the end of it. And please, for the love of God, do me all a favour, and let this be the last fucking feminist/anti-feminist thread for a while. I’m getting all patriarchal reading this shit, so lest you want me smacking y’all back into the kitchen, please lay the fuck off already. The OP’s issue appears to have been resolved, so let’s close this puppy up. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/oh-come-on-you-anonymous-coward-pit-me/218995.md?page=1)
