One thing which could be learned from various other sites, who came and went away again: Anonymity is NOT helpful.
Anonymity is inconvenient at best (if not counter-productive) as there is nowhere to turn to alert to problems, outages, or other issues - often popular sites disappear over night, leaving everyone to wonder what happened, if something could have been done, or supported better, to keep it around.
Knowing who is behind a site, and having the ability to contact those people, is in our opinion a big help to the site’s users. And since so many personal things are already in the public (by choice) on social-media-aware 21st century, some feel more comfortable than others to identify with orientations and special interests, and thus make themselves more available and accessible.
Certainly in the age of Internet trolls and other not-so-nice people bullying online, one has to walk a fine privacy line between showing responsibility for the site and avoid said nasties ...
We want to do things differently. Others have shown an interest in - and actually deliver - help (publicly and privately), offered ideas, help, and also moral support.
So all who claim support publicly to be behind Scaffies, shall be listed here on their own request :-)
