BitsBobbins/Tricia/WRemix and all the lovelies that have participated throught it have been one of my many inspirations to start my own blog, since I had been an avid blog reader-follower for years. I stopped worrying about 'creepy' situations, and it has certainly paid off to the people I've met online- and off, sharing similar likes. Also a good point to treat it as something you would in real life, after all since starting the blog, it's like my own personal journal that I keep track of visually in one area of my daily treks. I have been lucky as far as comments, which I'm very pleased with. Just a couple of really sexual-dumb ones, but just ignoring them does it. Thanks, great post and long live bloggers! xox.m awesome! great link to the economist.

My policy regarding spam or rudeness is "delete and ignore". I get more time to spend posting, and the trolls don't get the attention they're after, like you say.

Especially the point about not giving trolls the attention they desire. It's hard to resist doing that, but it's for the best. Making fun of spammers, though, is okay with me :-) Great post.

It brought up a couple of issues in my blogging experience: 1) I went through a long and painful blog migration process this year where I moved my blog post by post from MSN Live Spaces to Blogger. After I did that, I deleted all of my old posts except for one informing readers who accessed the old URL that my blog had moved. No spam on the old blog, thank goodness. 2) I don't have comment moderation enabled, but I have set up comments to be automatically emailed to me. If I see any spam in there, it gets deleted right away. Anyway, great post again! I think this is a subject a lot of bloggers can relate to. Thank you for this great post!
