   Why not use real friends and the preface "posting this for a friend who
wishes to remain anonymous."?  That's a lot "cheaper" than using a moderator.
Also, replies (supportive or flames) would be reliably forwarded to the
originator, and posting responsibilty is still closely linked to the author
(assuming a close enough friendship to share delicate information).
