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?


Personally, I hardly ever choose to spend my time trying to guess
what the credibility of a poster is. Instead, I react to what he
has written. If I need to know if it's true or not, I try to find
proof beyond the domain name of the sender's e-mail address.

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.


If you disagree with something written, how 'bout just posting your
reasons instead of attacking someone for unrelated behavior?
Playing the troll-labeling game has no value.
