It was that way in the very beginning of the internet (before www and during the first years of www).
Everthing was relatively civil, and most people went by real names or by mostly well-known nicknames/pseudonyms.
Then money moved in and took control. Anonymity (as opposed to pseudonymity) became neccessary sometimes.
Then huge waves of stupid people moved in and believed that they were in control. Anonymity and pseudonymity was everywhere (and hardly anyone knew the difference).
The bad news: Neither money nor stupid people have any plans to move out.
