So I'm scanning through a few blogs and other sites just to see what is going on. By and large - not much. But what I do notice is that people can't behave when commenting on blogs. A few of the blogs I frequent link to blogs that allow comments. In a few cases these blogs talk politics. So I read the author's take on a situation and then accidentally scroll down to the comments. Christ people - get your own damn blog.
This might be why I've cut way back on reading blogs. I prefer hanging out on motorcycle forums that are heavily moderated. Hell, the two primary forums I frequent wouldn't even allow this post as a thread.
Probably a good idea.
Anyway, what I see pass as comments on blogs is why I don't allow comments here.
