I swear your curiosity won't kill the cat

I cannot tell the difference between if the ask was sent through by a person with an account or someone who left their email address because they wanted to be notified or answered in private.

I do not have the power to remove the email because I am not the developer of this platform. The anon will remain anonymous when the message is posted. Sure, I may be aware of the email address, but I can ignore it. Mind you, emails aren't the only thing that contributes to working out if the same anon is coming back even if they don't identify themselves explicitly.

I honestly do not see how this would affect an anon who is asking genuine questions. All I would know is that it's coming from the same person so I know where we're at in the discussion, I know what's common knowledge so I don't have to address their question with a generic approach. No one else in the broader internet will know what account is associated with those questions and I'm not so bored or have so much time to waste to go and track this person down. This is a place where we focus on the topics discussed and not the person it came from.

The only time this would affect someone would be if the anon wants to be two-faced and/or is trying to trip me up with questions so they can pull quotes—most likely out of context—and use it against me (or anyone they're sending a Perch to). So if you're trying to circumvent the system and be absolutely anonymous for this purpose, please test this platform out yourself. I will not be tech support to someone with ill will.

(P.S. You messed up on being anonymous here, so again, please be careful if you want to be absolutely anonymous)

So for Joinperch thingy if you answer an ask, Do u see the email attached to the person who did an ask if they sign in? And also 

You have the power to remove the email from that person right? So like after that, they can be anonymous again?
