How do you post anonymously again?

I don't see the forum section anymore where you could do that and suggest the thread be moved to a particular forum section.

Iirc there is no anonymity anymore.
They even had an article on incognito mode gave same info as reg browsing.
Wish I could link it but probably google may provide answer that others have (myself amonsgt those) nothing is sacred it seems but this is not true logically so....
My bad.
Thanks for reminding me to turn location off I'm just off work.

I don't understand. As far as I could tell, the purpose of the anonymous thread posting was not security from bots or outsiders, it was just from other lay-bluelighters so that their username wasn't associated with a sensitive thread topic.

That function was removed many years ago when we switched from vBulletin to XenForo.
However, if you want to PM me the post then I can set it to be posted under an anonymous account manually.

Hmmm, that's not exactly anonymous. Nor does the function seem to be accessible, as I'm only hearing about this option now, in this thread after I asked.

Is it possible to reinstate the function as it was in XenForo? Or employ some reasonable (and accessible) facsimile?

Why wouldn't you just create another username under a different email address?

because we used to use it to post while banned.

"We?" Speak for yourself.
And so what?

Staff can now manually anonymize posts for members as of a couple months ago.
Make a post, PM it to an admin, and we can anonymize it instantly.
