What's With All the "Anonymous" Players?

@Puredication atm I mainly play anonymously because I'm unhappy with the standard I'm at and want to get better before putting my username to a game. Once I start improving and get to a point where I'm happy I'll start playing logged in.

@Puredication
My point and the others are still valid.
Since you play anonymously, you are one of the people you complain about.
Higher rated player still have the right to relax.

Since you claim to play anonymously to relax, that implies that you play in a different anonymous state to get stressed.

Well because anonymous players cant be banned, probably a lot of them are cheaters. Thats why you feel like playing Alireza Firouzja. They are just using an engine. Thats why there is no point playing anonymous at all. When someone cheats on his account, he will get banned. When someone does cheat on anonymous, nothing happens. So if you play anonymous, you have to accept the fact, that you will play more cheaters than on account and noone can do anything against it

I dont think theres anything wrong with calling myself "anonymous".....i just dont wish to reveal my name or gender and feel that playing chess is more important than deciding a name that would appease all! Everyone has their own wishes and opinions..we just have to respect them!
