I became anonymous after my Origins account was hacked and over $400 worth of games were purchased with my credit card. No one NEEDS to see who I am. If I like a person's uploads, I'll often comment. I have uploads too and nearly all of my followers are anon. I don't take it personally, because I know there are plenty of reasons why people do it. EA might also make minors appear anonymous as well, if they are under 13.
omg, I am always invisible and I'm anonymous to other players who I follow? Thanks for correcting me, I didn't know that was the reason. I just thought It was people who didn't want to be known. I stay invisible because I don't want to talk. lol
That's what I have always assumed. I went through all in-game Options, and there's nothing you can click to become anonymous in the Gallery. I think if you shut off all friend options and go Invisible through Origins, that hides you to Gallery users. However, if you upload something to the Gallery your name shows. Or, if you comment, people can see your name and click to go to your page. Aside from that, like I said it might also be used as protection for young kids.
