Thank you for sharing, I now feel I know you so much more deeply.
It is one of the things about the internet. You can be anoymous. You can say what you think on here and you don't have to suffer because of your views. Two organisations I belong to have told me to be careful about what I say on the internet. Why risk linking your anoymous self to your real self. I can be more open with my opinions and I don't have to worry about what others think about what I say if I stay anoymous.

14. If you could meet anyone from this board in the real world, who would it be and why? lmach because he seems like a good bloke to watch a game of soccer or footy with. And also Andonis1997 as he's the same age and also seems like a nice bloke.

And it seems that majority of this board found FGD from Google images. Thought I was the only one.

I completely understand you point, I am reserved in the sort of information I give out online as well.
But there was, perhaps, a better way to retain your anonymity; don't fill out the answers at all.
