Speaking as someone that uses a Tripcode on both DQN and L&R (anonymous everywhere else), I'm going to admit (willingly) that I do it mostly to get a rise out of the more hide-bound posters here. Once it stops being a big deal, I'll probably consider cutting it out. Until then, it's too funny listening to "OMG TRIPPFAEG" and seeing people getting their panties in a bunch over such a minor thing.
