One of the caveats of the Internets: "never post something you wouldn't want your mama or your employer to read."

But the poster gets a veneer of anonymity that whoever they're defaming doesn't.

Granted, that's also a caveat of our age. We [people] got used to taking moderate slander/libel on a small scale (the site puts me in mind of Slam Books). Now, we get to take it on a larger one.
