Balls. Grow some.

Having balls results in being able to state your opinions without fear of tiny colored icons hurting your feelings.

Side effects of having balls may including getting a life outside of chess forums instead of having your identify defined by people on the internet you've never seen click on an image of a small human appendage.

Ask your doctor if balls are right for you.

alas as I age they do tend to swing low, so no high hurdles for me.

Having "balls" results in people being able to state their opinions without using tiny coloured icons in a silly secret attempt to hurt others' feelings.

You really think people's identities are defined by red thumbs? Boy, do YOU take the infantile biscuit of the week!

Balls...

Another side effect of having them is not replying twice, or several times, to the same post just to make the same point over and over (and over, and oooveeerrr) again.

Having balls would mean you aren't afraid to let it be known who is giving the up or down thumb vote.

It would be way more interesting and combative if we could see who is clicking on those thumbs 🤔

I think the people who want it to remain anonymous do so because they don't want their friends to see if they disagree about something.

It could destroy alliances and such.
Internet friendships would really be tested 🤔
