Why do people still go anonymous on Yahoo when they're closing this place down?
7 more days.
But what's the point? No one knows who anyone is even with the alias names revealed.

It could be a number of reasons:
1. They want to keep their ID's a secret because they don't want people knowing who they are. Maybe they don't trust certain people.
2. They don't feel comfortable making their ID's public.
3. They are probably asking a lot of personal questions and don't want to be embarrassed.
4. They want to avoid being targeted by trolls.
