I totally agree with you on that. However, I guess Seth Godin would laugh out loud of your first post paragraph affirmation.

I try to take the time to provide some value, or my opinion to the post specifically. Like you mention, it’s almost a waste of time when someone says, “nice comment”, “like your blog”. There is no value in that type of comment. I like what someone said, that a comment is the second half of the post. That’s a great definition of an excellent comment. Add more content onto the end of the post via comments, but unfortunately, I don’t think many people will. They will continue to say the basic ones I mentioned above and move on.

It’s good to know my occasional hundred word comments aren’t as annoying as I thought they might be.

Mark, your words make a mark on me. It is the right thing to have an opinion even if it opposes, as long as you are open to other people’s ideas. and, in that i would prefer to have a negative comment than comment which is just written for the sake of getting traffic

Earl, the situation of commenting is really challenging and it is a known problem. If you are a person that uses social media along with commenting, then you are bound to lose some time on it.

And, to save time, writer of the new generation prefer social media votes which are far easier to do than others.

Eleanor, I think many bloggers are shallow including me when it comes to comments. I just love them and they are a great validation of my effort.

But, on the other hand spam comments are a buzz kill and prefer to delete them.

What if your comment is spam and it still passes akismet, then what would you do?

I usually get less negative comments because i am not that controversial. But, like any other blogger, negative comments have come my way and i have handled them either by discussing and if thing goes out of hand, then i usually delete the comments.

It totally depends on the degree of negative comment for me. what about you?
