The uncensored comments

More and more bloggers being concern over the abuse of comments. There are flame war, personal attacks, spams happened in people’s personal blog. And just because the owner of blog openly welcome for discussion, it doesn’t mean you could play over the rules. There’s always boundary, abusing would only bring the mess and hurt. Think about the old days of usenet.

Jeff decided to suspend the conversation feature of his blog, because:

I had meant it for privileged interactive conversations among intellectuals. But this privilege has been taken for granted, and abused.

Instead of engaging each other in mature, intellectual discourse, many have used it to promote hatred among friends, among Bangsa Malaysia.

We can do without all these.

The way of discussion among people could lead to mess and ugly, especially while involving politics. OldKopiTiam (note: in Mandarin) is a good example if you remembered how many excellent articles have been there in old days.

May be Trackback should be used more often for conversation, you got to have a blog to communicate.

Shortly after posting that blog my best friend called me to see what I was doing...which was a weird way to start off the conversation since it doesn't particularly matter what I was doing since he lives in New York. ... Anyways, after I told him I was just sitting on my butt at home he told me he was going to be at my apartment in an hour and a half. ... So basically I had the most awesome day yesterday and am very grateful to him for driving 1500 miles to cheer me up. ... And that's why I love you sweety. :) 9:10 AM Wednesday, August 20, 2003

This blog is becoming quite scholarly , what with all the literary discussions , the math problem , psychology tests, and the like. ... So , in an effort to add a modicum of fun to the blog , we now have an attack of the random links . ... I would have warned you to run and hide from the attack, but it would have been useless.

Michael Totten's blog has an excellent discussion going on in the comments on this article . ... Well, political discussions in which people from a variety of political positions make thoughtful contributions are extremely rare. ... All too often, comments on politics degenerate into bad-tempered tribalism for instance, lots of childish leftists (and no, that's not a tautology) seem to think it clever to fill the comments of Tim Blair's blog with ad hominen attacks.
