But the posterity.

I think that the delete movement is based on overly neurotic paranoia. I can't imagine anyone actually caring about anything someone says here, unless it's like overtly racist or something. Like, would you care about trying to figure out which random poster was who based on subtle hints in post history? You would not.

I didn't at first but than I just got a bit creeped out by randos lurking in my personal life. Plus I don't want to say something dumb about wanting one school over another or something and have that somehow affect me.

Do you mean randos like actual randos or just regular posters in this thread?

This is my take on it. On the school preference issue, any adcom reading this with enough attention to detail to identify us would realize that most of us are free agents that will be heavily influenced by scholarship options.

Edit: Just got some compelling evidence, paranoia growing.

Yeah I'm not concerned about being identified by the people who post ITT, I'm more concerned with future classmates knowing I'm a big loser who has a bunch of posts on TLS, which they'd be able to gether from piecing together like two readily apparent details about me
