Because people get sad when you score their favourite show 7/10 instead 10/10 like them and start to get annoying.

The argument "To hide their hentai" sounds pointless to me - if you want only that but to show the rest of the list why simply not adding the porn titles to it? (having them on text file or something)

Isn't the point of making an anime list being able to show it to others ?

Just assume your tastes, no one is right or wrong here anyway.

That's not what bullying means...You are the one who thinks it's a bully, rather you should feel proud that people are arguing with you on your ratings.

Maybe some people don't want others to judge their scores or taste in anime. Or maybe they're just shy or smth.

Because troll will attack on ur profile comment page and send u private message because they are dissatisfied with u rating. Not everyone can handle it.

When u meet a troll u will realize, how much effort and time they put to check ur animelist so that they could bash u. Maybe people are afraid of that.

On the other hand there are also bot accounts who doesn't want to show there scores too.

In the end, making private means they don't want to show u

Probably because of MAL users that are mostly fanboys of their favorite show and will kill anyone who disagrees with them. I personally love arguing with those types since it always gets a good laugh out of me. But it's completely understandable to have a private list.

I don't think that they meant it as wanting to debate them about ratings. I suggest checking the comment section of any person who has made a negative Attack on Titan review recently. Its filled with people that are the problem of this community.

Not exactly. There are some folks who would just treat their list like an optimally organized version of a spreadsheet they couldn't find elsewhere. They could be thinking that MAL is just better at organizing anime lists than Google Sheets, excel spreadsheets, notebooks full of lined paper, and other variants of private listing. In that case, they don't have to care about sharing it.

Its so stupid how once you make a point that is your opinion about a certain anime, people just go to your anime list and point out that you have a trash taste because u rated an anime in a way they didnt like

Probably to hide it from stupid people who want to harass them for their taste. Some people are pretty insecure about it. Or they could just straight up be hiding hentai x)

Some people prefer privacy. Pretty much the same reason as why some people never open the curtains on their windows even in day time or why someone might never put face pic on facebook.
There's no inherent right or wrong in this universe, but when we think with emotions rather than logic, we make things so.

believe me they don't, I saw many of them putting their Mal profile link on Twitter bio but when you click on it it's private, so why you scared then? I think they just want to hide their fake stats

Because they don't want to other people know what anime their have seen? maybe. Just advice to person to do that, instead you private your list, you just private your profile information so you can feel safe adding anime you want without worrying other people know who you are.

I don't know why people are bothered when someone else's anime list is private.
What are you going to do by looking at other's list? Judge them or trash talk on their favourite anime?

There is an option to make your list private but visible to your friends...thus such link makes sense for twitter followers who are also your friends on MAL.

bully the bully. That's the motto of internet.
"I think I wanted to attack something. Like betraying people or hurting people. And, well, it's not exactly nice, but hurting the readers too... In all honestly, I feel that's what I really wanted to do. For me, as a reader, when I think, "this manga will remain in my heart," it means, for example, it phenomenally hurt me: It's those kinds of experiences I'm after." - Pajime Hisayama (My favourite hurting author).

Generally to avoid being harassed by nut jobs, to hide your hentai passion, or because you just use it to track anime and be left alone in peace. Some people care about these things.

Rating criticism is likely one of the more common reasons.

Tip to those who are afraid, as soon as someone dumps on your profile. Take that ball and dump them right back as fast as you can. Assert dominance & confidence. They will think you are a 'no-life' therefore fear starts to grip their fragile undeveloped mind. Fear of being overwhelmed by your undeniable godlike hacking PoWeRZZZZ.
When will Black Clover release new anime?! It has been 3 years already since March 2021...

I don't know who quotes me and then deletes the comment, but know that you make my day.
