I oppose bots, spam and generic phrases that add no value to article as well as comments who only use Keywords as name to try and get some SEO backlink juice but care less about contributing to the article. Thanks for sharing your experience. I generally do not censor or block any comment that is a legitimate hand typed comment that shows a reader’s personality.

I had even agreed with the points made in the article but went on to question how the term 'design' was defined and offered up an alternative approach.The hypocrisy really annoyed me but being new to blogging and because of their established presence online I've feel I've been unable to answer back in anyway for fear of damaging my businesses as a freelancer. In the meantime they continue to give blogging advice. I’ve had comments removed and have been subsequently blocked from making comments.

If the site is screened for profanity, it won't need to be tiered. I have noticed more and more 'language' getting through the 'screener' (don't know if KIRO uses software or people). Talk about a slippery slope. As I mentioned on a previous topic, when you allow profanity in, it attracts people who can't form a sentence with out being laden with expletives. It becomes a cheapened blog where differences can't be discussed or debated without the vulgar every-other-word-do-something-to yourself argument!Screen out the profanity, bounce the boneheads (as per your example above) and we'll take care of the rest!!!
