Last week at Evento Blog, I heard a controversial phrase from Andreu Buenafuente. He said: “I don’t let comments on my blog because I don’t let some idiot comes to my blog and piss me off“. He said too: “The comments don’t bring something good to my posts“. I’m not agree with this last phrase (I have had great comments in this blog), but the first one makes me think. When I started this blog nearly four years ago, I started to spread out my blog to a close circle of friends. Nowadays, I receive thousands of visits per day, and many idiots leaves stupid things here. I know we musn’t feed the troll, I know it’s so much better not to listen to them, and I know too the alleged “anonymity” of Internet makes more brave the idiots. I feel sorrow when they feel safety thanks to their unknowledge about how Internet works (no, Mr Troll, Internet is not anonymous, moreover if you do nothing to hide your ass…). But I’m tired of pressing the delete button, I’ve too little time to loose deleting comments. So I’m going to take measures that I do not want to. The first one: I’m going to close the comments. Failing that, I’ll moderate them.

The second action: I will take up writing my posts in English, or at least the most of them will be written in English. Why? I’ll explain it some day.

    In English?…okey

    I'll keep visiting you;)

  2. Please, don't close the comments! I think that's the end of blog conversation. I recommend you two tips:
    * Close comments in 21 days old posts.
    * Only comments with OpenID (I don't like it, but it's a good troll filter)

    Anyway, keep blogging in any language :)

  3. Pedro: Thanks
    Manuel: 1) It would be a good option 2) I was thinking of doing that, but I'm not sure 100%. Like you said, I'll keep blogging :)
