That leaves the question of whether that's okay or whether we should simply disable the account.

Submitting...

Oh, I wasn't suggesting that; I was just hoping that whoever has been exclusively posting from that account can take a hint and consider using LW the typical way. It's confusing to see so many posts at once by that account and not know whether there's one person or several using it.

It's interesting looking at the raw data breakdown of non -anonymous versus anonymous votes.

that's creepy; also if you take away all the anonymous votes then there are very few votes (5). That might be normal for polls here. Hard to tell.

Also to note; I voted with my account here and it does not appear in the raw poll data. I don't know why.

Anonymous voting is the default, and I always leave it on.

I'd prefer to see accountability be a default, with anonymity whenever desired.

All votes are done by real accounts. There a checkbox under a poll that marks whether your vote is annonymous or isn't by default it's toggled for annonymous votes.
