Original user story: "As a student, I want to be able to post a question anonymously, so that I don’t get embarrassed"

NodeBB currently allows users to make posts that other users can interact with. But, there is a requirement that the original poster must be identified. This could cause embarrassment to the poster if the post shows the lack of understanding in a certain subject. We would like to remove any barriers to posting anything a user is comfortable with.

We ranked this user story number 7 because though this could be a useful feature, it isn't the only way to solve the problem of embarrassment among posters. Also, the other user stories seem to highlight more important functionality that is essential for a class question forum.
