SUSPICIOUS COMMENTS

imageI must say, being a blogger I like the comments I get on some of my posts. Particularly if the comments are relevant and not just “Me Too” posts. But over the last week or so I am seeing more activity on my blog by a very few people out there who write like five comments at a time, but they all seem to be of the “Me Too” type. This is not really helpful and it looks like it is time for me to crack down on this simply because THIS BLOG IS NOT FOR YOU TO ADVERTIZE ON.

I do not mind legitimate comments, really I do, and in fact I respond to them. But with each comment is the ability to add a link for the poster and they are supposed to be email addresses, instead people are using the link to add a URL to a site. I really do not mind this either if it were not for the fact that it is coming blatantly clear that the posts are just to get the links to the sites.

What kinda get me is that the times of the posts are so consistent. First off, you can’t read my posts in about a minute, I write long posts and not at a first grade level. Second, the titles are sometimes not related to the post in the ways that may be obvious. Someone responding to the title will not post a comment that is correct. Case in point… my last post was “Anti-Condom”, which was only about condoms in so far as it referred to Sarah Palins’ seeming lack of ability to inform her daughter of contraception usage. It was a political post, yet people are posting about condom use and such. They did not read the post.

So here it: I have the ability to massively delete comments… I know how to do this because I wrote the module and database query that will do it. So, first you are going to see most of the posts of that last week disappear except those that are on topic. Next, if I find you coming back and trying it again, you will find your access via IP blocked. If that does not work I will mark the blog to “Comment Approval Mode” and not allow any posts to be viewed until I have reviewed them.

Please, I like reading actual comments and interacting with people, but if you are posting just to get your link on my site, why not write me and ask me to include you in my blog roll. I post these links for friends of the site or sites that I like.

Be kind; don’t make me be a tyrant on my own blog.
