Who are you?

If you want to remain anonymous, the obvious way to do that would be to avoid giving away anything specific or identifying about yourself. The good thing about the internet is that it's totally voluntary. There's nobody on one end forcing anyone to do anything on the other.

If you feel like a question would give away too much personal information, don't answer it. I ask people questions because I'm genuinely curious about their answers and the anonymity of the internet provides a way to get past social taboos that could otherwise alter true opinions.


Military members - millions of people
Where do you reside? - 7 continents..
How much did you pay for college? - millions of people
High school reunions - millions of people
How much exercise do you get per week? - hundreds of millions of people
Have you ever been knocked unconscious? - millions of people
Are you circumcised? - billions of people
Are you male or female? - billions of people
Are you famous? - millions of people
Are you older? - (subjective) millions (if not billions) of people
Happiest moment of your life? - (totally subjective) irrelevant
Ever used a prostitute? - millions of people

...not to mention the other 90% of the threads I've posted that have nothing to do with personal, let alone identifying information...

Give it up Pad! You're a secret DEA spy; tasked to draw info from small-time growers who aren't concerned about their three plants and that have no bearing on the massive black market that exists! Seriously, I'm all for caution, but this is paranoia. The OP started a thread that encouraged people to post pics of their bodies; that can include exif data, people's faces, and identifiable landmarks; yet I don't see people starting threads about him. Or there's that whole "post a picture of yourself" thread: I don't see people constantly harping on that as a source of info for busts. If you're going to be one of those guys who implies "cop", then you should at least be consistent.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to kpmarine again

Right?!?!? I've had several PMs too. Surprises me that more people will not speak up, but as Pad's own private database states, 70% of peeps here are introverts. It's ok, I don't mind speaking up.
Some of your previous threads: https://www.rollitup.org/toke-n-talk/602627-washington-states-first-pot-dui.html -entices people from WA to give up info; https://www.rollitup.org/spirituality-sexuality-philosophy/598721-homo-sexuals.html -entices folks from the homosexual community to contribute; https://www.rollitup.org/toke-n-talk/565541-taxes-country-k-im-getting.html -encourages people to compare taxes in their country; https://www.rollitup.org/sports/561003-where-my-broncos-fans.html -you state where you live and encourage other Broncos fans to come out; https://www.rollitup.org/toke-n-talk/559574-if-i-wanted-submit-something.html -you sought info from people who had been published before. Some of the info you have requested before could be potentially identifying, yet you escape scrutiny; think about it... Plus, isn't Pad a mod? I mean, if a mod is that obvious of an informant, doesn't that kind-of tank RIU's credibility entirely?
