If you're talking about today's blue-man questions, they had no merit so, they deserved the snide remarks.
The 3 reasons you listed typically don't receive snide remarks - at least not that I've noticed.

I think it depends on the question being asked. No doubt there are plenty of legitimate questions asked anonymously, but plenty are not.

Because the last one was scam. Most of the ones before that have been students asking the same 6 questions over and over again or people asking general questions that have no reason being behind the blue face shield.

Anonymity is not the problem. The type of question and the way it is presented (poor grammar) is the issue.

Sometimes there is a reason but many times, there is no rhyme nor reason why they are hiding who they are asking a generic question. I stick with if i have nothing good to say, i skip the question and do not answer

Some do it because they are rude, some because they are frustrated with questions they do not like, some for other reasons.
I try to be nice most of the time.

I guess I am an old school.
Anonymous status associates with unwilling to show your face and it is like anonymous phone call or letter with complaint. This how I feel.
There are so many ways to find information online and I believe in AR we want to see who is asking.

People on the internet don't act in polite society. I guess it's more secure than being in your car and driving like you own the road.
Because you are a blue head on Active Rain some assume you might be 1. students sent here from lazy Utah Real Estate Teacher's Class 2. are spam or 3. are sneaky

Agree! My interest in a Q is not impacted by whether or not the questioner is anonymous.

1. Why would you be talking about someone else here on the AR forum? is it is because you are saying something negative? Then you shouldn't be doing it at all.
2. Of all the people here are AR do really think we would know what transaction you are talking about if you keep names, address, and such out of the equation?
3. If you don't want to be embarrassed here on a public forum, go ask your broker the question
If you have a legitimate question there would be no reason to hide.

There is no reason to be anonymous. It is easy to recognize 90% of these anonymous questions are posted by the same person. What is their purpose?
IT is a choice the poster has made. There are consequences attached to that choice.
Some respond differently in the face of 'takers' when the poster could easily be a giver instead. Get my point?
