New forum function - posting anonymously, as Anonymous

Since people were asking about it earlier, here’s a relevant post from Vrakthis:

Long time I go, I found a bluepost that stated that mods do in fact see if people abuse alt-posting privileges. Is this still the case? Is this something you’re allowed to confirm? I can’t seem to find that post again though.

Odds are good it was something I posted. I’ve commented on that before.

Yes, we can generally see if someone is using alts to make multiple reports. That is considered reporting abuse and we usually penalize accounts found doing that.

WoW forums is really the only one out of all forums that allow multiple toon posting vs singular btag poster.

The WoW forums have always allowed players to post on their character of choice so when we adopted these new forums we wanted to make sure to bring over things that the playerbase was used to, as much as possible. Of course, other problems came about because of it, so we are looking into updates that should prevent alt abuse but it tends to be slow going.
