Your blog, your choice. Commenting is not a right.

I’ve been blogging for 3 years and I’m amazed at how LITTLE hate there is out there. I’ve had tens of thousands of comments and about 5 of them have been less than positive. That’s amazing!

This is your blog. You are the publisher. Commenting is a privilege not a right. I have been accused of censorship when I have deleted some nasty comments.

Anyone that goes to someone’s personal blog and insults them is not trying to ‘create discussion.’ They’re simply being a jerk. And jerks suck. If he wants freedom of speech, tell him to get his own blog. The he can tell the whole world* how much he thinks you suck. *And by ‘whole world’, I mean his mom, as she would no doubt be his only reader.

And if you owned a bar, we would all expect free drinks

This post sucks more than any other post everer in the wholest widest world………. hmmmmmmmmmm I feel better now.

Now I have scapegoated you for what were probably personal angst ridden issues I can get on with what I really wanted to say.

If you owned a bar and someone walked in badmouthing the place, then it would be wholley reasonable to evict them from the premisis. So I say it’s your bar you decide who stays and who go’s.

People don’t have the right to roll up and insult you in your own “home” so to speak. It’s not censorship if you’re deleting what is essentially a flame and the purpose of the comment was solely to offend.

I cannot wait until the days when i have people commenting on my blog, so i have this problem;)
I feel blog comments are a privilege. Why? Simply because if one person goes saying something negative on a public site,. then , due to the massive network of people reading it, it could start a trend of slamming perfectly good writing.

And if you leave up a negative comment, thinking it will only be one, and you dont want to be a censor-er, then you will have to leave up all hecklers comments, because you made a policy to not edit them.

You are right. Nice comment. I haven’t stopped by in a while to see what’s going on. Man! I gotta stop here more often. I’m missing some good stuff.

How long did you work with this person?? He/She must have no clue about who you are. Stay the course……

And, Jon didn’t make me up either. I’m Rose. I’m his friend. I like him. He says funny things that make me laugh and nice things that make me smile.
