anonymous comments with no name

Hey, just curious, but sometimes I see a comment on a post that has no author, and doesn't say if the person agrees or disagrees. Yet there is a comment there. Is that from one of administrators on the site who wants to remain anonymous, or is it some glitch in the system?

I have noticed the same thing.
These comments tend to be from new users with Zero post count, hence Zero rep power.
Hope this clears things up for you.

As moderator, are you able to see who it is? Otherwise, how can you tell it is a new member? I saw one the other day on an old thread somebody dug up, and wondered if it was an artifact of back when you could make anonymous comments here. Most of the comments I see the new member's name does show.

I don't think it's just on older posts, because there's one on Jesushelper's post, that's only from mid December:

Anyways I was just curious. It looks sort of weird.
