Plea to Pajama Pundits
I read a lot of blogs which stimulate my mind and make me want to add my thoughts to the comments sections. As a blogger, I am happy when someone has bothered to read my commentary or when they take the time to read anothers post that I found noteworthy, and let me know by a sentence or two that they too found it of interest or disagree stating the reasons for their disagreement. I allow anonymous postings and thus far have only removed two, one because I did not approve of vulgarity and the other because it was a duplicate post. Maybe I have not attracted the traffic and have been spared a lot of inappropriate commentary. The more blogs I read, the more differing registrations are required to post a comment. I am happy to leave my name, valid Email address and yes, a link to my blog. Maybe I will be forced to change my policy regarding anonymous posting. In the meantime, the various registry options make me opt to just leave the site. I do not revisit these sites.

Hi Pat!
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by Iraq the Future! Nabil wanted to leave blogging, because someone left him a horrible msg. I talked him out of it, and he talked me into becoming his partner! It didn't take much tugging! :) We want to bring our two countries together through friendship.
I love your article! I only lost one by accident! I guess mine isn't as busy! Ha ha ha. It is really hard to know how many people come by if they don't leave a comment. I think that is why I always try to leave a comment. I have also noticed that some blogs won't allow me to leave a comment. Oh well. Their loss, because even if I disagree, I try to be polite. I have lost my temper once, and wrote back and apologized to the other commenter. Oh well, I never claimed to be perfect! At least I didn't use foul language. Peace be with you always, Pat, and God bless your family and you (and your pets!)
I'm in total agreement with you Pat. Some of the sites I would like to leave a comment on are too complicated for me to even get in. Oh well. I seldom have anything profound to say anyhow! LOL I don't have comments on my blog but sometime wish I did.

Well, Pat...The only reason I really got into communicating on the Internet was the "run up" to OP: Iraqi Freedom. The two cable channels that I could even tolerate for awhile were MSNBC and FNC. Since I'm retired, was at my townhome in Arizona and wanted to watch the war coverage 24/7; I soon grew to almost hate the "talking heads" editorializing the reports, etc. They "drove" me onto the 'Net...
ReplyDeleteNow in my renaissance; I have turned to blogging initially as an outlet and now, as a form of participation in "events." The World will now "suffer" my humble attempts to opine and share...y'all may blame Alex Witt and to a lesser degree; most of the FN'C "village idiots..." So many villages without their idiots...such a tragedy!
I have yet to find any problems with the few who have elected to post on my efforts; but only time will tell. The Internet sickness practiced by TROLLS seems to "go with the territory" and basically...they usually go away if ignored...
To me; blogs, unlike forums and newsgroups seem to have a higher quality of reader base. ::shrug:: I search for blogs, acknowledge those who visit mine and try to "live and let live."...
There are as many blogs as there are stars in the sky...or so it seems... I can only spend part of my time surfing blogs...news 'gators, etc use more than enough time to read, format and post; while trying to reciprocate to those who visit me... Each day brings a new, mostly pleasant experience. The "stress" of "Rather-gate" just about took all my time as each event unfolded...Maybe I should "turn off" the television as I blog...My BP would thank me...
