Given the choice of being spammed by the ton, or having a couple of idiots call me a Troll

Spam is a fact of usenet participation; get over it.

Personally, I view the credibility of articles originating from
anonymous usenet gateways with an eye of suspicion. It raises the
question, what motivation prompts an author to choose to hide his
identity and thus escape public responsibility for his words? The
credibility of anonymous authors is always more suspect than those
authors who have nothing to hide.

Take off your mask and join your fellow airmen as a peer in polite
discussion. It's painless, really, and you'll likely find your
credibility among the participants generally increased, instead of
being viewed as a paranoiac or flame-bait.
