tor block insanity

["loki tiwaz" <loki_tiwaz@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

i just added this to the gentoo wiki:

http://gentoo-wiki.com/SECURITY_Encrypting_Root_Filesystem_with_DM-Crypt_with_LUKS#Automatic_Mounting_of_Encrypted_User_Directories

and i wanted to post the info in the gentoo forum where the same type of 
info was also posted, but in your infinite wisdom you have chosen to block 
access to the forum on the basis of my network origin, even though out of 
all tor users trolls are only a minority, just as they are anywhere else.

why should i have to give away my identity to contribute to your forum??? 
the admins of the gentoo wiki haven't been so stupid as to block tor users. 
couldn't you just set up registered user only posting for the forums rather 
than block network nodes on an open proxy system? if you are gonna block 
tor, are you gonna add all other open proxy addresses too? are you gonna 
choose to make it difficult to access the forum anonymously? tor is the 
easiest form of anonymising available. it is gonna be used mainly by people 
for whom malicious behavior is not something they wish to do, people who 
don't want to have to be messing around with more complex and difficult to 
run anonymising systems, who just want to be anonymous.

blocking tor users on the basis of a small number of trolls is completely 
unfair, what makes you think that just cos a few lazy script kiddies want to 
make asses of themselves through tor that everyone who uses tor is 
automatically a troll?

thanks for nothing
