You can really help with your comments.
How you can help
Your comments are a powerful tool to help me to develop and perfect these articles.
I do like getting comments.
- These are encouraging and informative.
- However, a majority of the comments that I receive are completely unacceptable. They are almost always spam-like comments.
Let’s have a look at types of acceptable and unacceptable comments.
General Information
Critical comments are more than welcome. However, these comments must give examples from the blog.
- For example, “This is crap, man!” will be deleted. But “This is crap, man, because you say A…B… This is wrong because of reason C…reason D…” will definitely be published.
I get the feeling that many people comment to advertise their own web site.
- For example, when I go to their site I get immediate sales promotion.
- In addition, I do not want to advertise web sites that promote unacceptable behaviours.
Acceptable Comments
Comments about writing style.
- I am not a writer. I don’t have an editor or proof reader.
- I would really appreciate professional or amateurs to help me with my writing style.
- I want the writing to be easily read and understood by all people.
Comments about facts.
- I am not a scientist.
- Please inform of any factual statements that are false.
- Please inform me of any extra information that would be useful as evidence of any true statements.
Comments about argument.
- I am not a philosopher.
- Please inform me of any false or unreasonable arguments.
- You are also welcome to reinforce any reasonable logic or argument.
Comments about presentation.
- I am not a computer enthusiast.
- Please inform me on improving the site.
- Note, your comments must be in very basic form with limited jargon ( I am hopeless with computers). If using jargon, could you please explain it.
- I know that jargon is useful when putting across a point in its briefest form. However, for a guy like me it will be way over the top.
Comments to encourage.
- I know people want to encourage others.
- I do apologize to people who really want to encourage me with brief comments.
- All you need to do is to comment and then add a quote from the article in question.
- This shows that you have at least read the article in question.
- Try to choose the sentence that appeals to you most.
Unacceptable Comments
Comments like “I love this blog!” or ” I have bookmarked this blog.” will not be accepted.
- These appear as self-promoting comments. They show the writer has not read one word of the article on which they comment. Whenever I check out the blog they are selling something.
Unacceptable comments and web sites will not be published.
- Please inform me if I publish unacceptable comments or promote unacceptable web sites.
