Comments and Cowards
every idiot has a blog, but what about those too stupid for even that?
Seems like you can have a perfect pool or bowl of Cheerios and someone’s always got to come along and piss in it. Last night I get an email notification that someone had left comments on this site in my galleries, so I logged in to see what was said. I was left wondering why this person even bothered. The comments weren’t going to get to stay up there. I removed them and set the requirements for commenting to members only. I figure only my friends are going to care about pictures of my friends anyway.
A lot of sites I respect don’t allow comments, since the vast majority of them are poorly written and usually asinine. On my first journal I stopped writing because of the comments that were left by one unknown person. My second I decided to not even bother with them. Usually they are too difficult to monitor and keep spam free to be worth it.
I’m not going to say what was said, other than I am pretty sure I know who left it, and if this person had even the smallest amount of courage the email address would have been valid. As it is, I do have the IP of the computer used to leave the comment, and it wouldn’t be that hard to track this person down, but I’m not going to bother. I just may join those other sites that don’t allow comments.
