Is there anyway to allow anonymous comment as an option to have 'real' opinion on submitted Art Work? I know pixiv has it but do they have it for deviantart? If not, can you implement to certain people that afraid to lay their true opinion?

I am game for this. have it moderated and such, similar to how say Blogger allows you to moderate comments -- you have to approve it before it goes public.

That just opens wide windows to abuse, dude. dA isn't exactly the most mature crowd, and this would lead to all sorts of trouble.

I believe that anonymous comments are and always will be a bad idea.

Horrible idea.
If you can't say it under your ID then it doesn't need to be said.

Or are you afraid someone you know might find out how sexy you find My Little Pony drawings?

I agree with you.
Anonymous comments are usually irresponsible spams with curse, idiotic or advertising marks/links,

Indeed.
This way the shitty spam is kept (mostly) out and what does get through, the account gets the banhammer.

As for the moronic variety of comment....if someone wants to talk shit about my work, have the balls to put your name to it. I know if I see something that is so bad the "artist" needs to know, I have no issues putting my name to it.

Lol you make it sound that all anonymous is bad. If someone anonymous were to donate you premium for deviantart would you turn it down? Just because they are anonymous? It's kind of like you can't donate under your ID it shouldn't be donated?

umm, we CAN give premium accounts anonymously.
And giving a membership is a totally different kettle of fish than commenting.

Donations are always positive and appreciated. Comments? not always.

Giving someone a gift anonymously is not the same as being able to literally say whatever the fuck you want because your comment has no user attached to it. Thus, no repercussions for any negative actions.
