That would be my main peeve with online stuff: in Real Life, I'd see how old the person was and notice the accent, etc. There's no way of knowing who (in all senses of that word) you're talking to. But yes, Spreebok has a good reason not to know.
To me, a lot of the frustration stems from the current state of the American media: news programs are filled with more stories about idiot celebrities and reality shows than actual news stories. Accomplishment is less celebrated than foolish self-promotion.
