Generally what works for me is asking directly.  
“Ehi man in our community we love to see our faces, I noticed that you’re writing a lot of interesting posts why not permit our people to see yours? I guarantee you that talking with a face is better than talking with aa _letter in the_ alphabet.”

It worked 100% of the time
