The Flipside of Good Comments
Bloggers live for comments. We love receiving and giving them. They can be encouraging, thoughtful, and a sign of real friendship. A good comment lets the other person know he or she matters.
Sometimes comments are for all the wrong reasons though. Have you ever received a comment from these types of people?
The Spammer - the same, generic comment left on many blogs or someone commenting just to leave a link. (I’m sure most of us have been zapped about boycotting American women!)
The Clueless - comments that have nothing to do with the blog post.
The Greedy - leaves quick comments just to get return comments. (This also applies to those who follow just to get a return follow.)
The Suck-up - buttering up someone for selfish gain. The comment is obviously not genuine and may ooze sickly sweetness.
The Slammer - bashes others or even the blog owner. Comments are negative and sometimes laced with superiority.
The Fighter - leaves instigating comments just to stir up trouble.
Can you think of any others?
And your inspirational photo for the day…
“I hope to grow up to be Cthulhu one day!”
