    >Well, if you're trying to replace Slashdot, then they certainly do.

    This a thousand times! We need junk.

    We need it because it's part of the Slash culture, but also because AC is the only way for some to post about their employers, post interesting but controversial links and so on. Anonymity gives rise to bad posts, but without it everyone will behave so well, they will never manage to say the most interesting things.
