You'd essentially have to find a forum full of people identical to you... and who among us can stand our own company?

Thank you for your compliment. But I'm not ONLY open-minded and curious, I have other traits and habits too, like having a big dick and fucking your mom.
I would just like to discuss topics without people who pretend to know shit, but are willingly ignorant and vulgar.

You'll never get anything serious on a completely anonymous forum.

Upon entering the site there would be captcha-like questions where one would have to "Choose all classical philosophy"

Then there would follow lots of questions to weed out the pseuds and finally you would be able to post

I would have to list hundreds of books that I've read, according to what people agree on here. Instead, I'm just going to recommend you my two favorite non-fiction books.

>Public Relations (by Edward Bernays)

There are a lot of mechanisms to ensure that lower quality posts get drowned out. As long as you're doing your job to sage threads, ignore baits and trolls, call newfags out and report /b/-tier posts, things stay superb. But you are all NOT doing your fucking job.

I see your point, but I still think it's very hard to have a conversation if you don't know who you're talking to - not even with a nickname. It's too much of a perfect environment for trolling.

Namefagging doesn't help for shit. The main point was that people just gave up on the mechanisms which protected the quality of any board.
