Dear Anonymous Commenter,
First of all I must say that I originally had mixed feelings about letting people comment anonymously on my blog, but I decided to let it go just in case someone didn’t have a Gmail account or if they didn’t want to go through the hassle of signing in. However, after receiving several not so nice anonymous comments I have decided to disengage this feature.
I do not mind people disagreeing with me. In fact, I appreciate the opportunity to view things from a different angle. I do mind however when people choose to abuse anonymity by using it as an opportunity to insult my intelligence or say things they would normally not say if their name was actually linked to it. If these are your true beliefs then by all means leave the comment, but please have the guts to stand behind it and show your identity. If you are that embarrassed to leave your "beliefs" on my blog without a name or face, then maybe you aren’t that sure of yourself in the first place.
Sincerely,
Laura

Oo, I'm with you on that. If you're going to say nasty things, at the very least, your blog name or email address should be connected with them.
ReplyDeleteIt is so disgusting that people feel the need to leave rude comments and not stand behind them! Seriously, grow a pair!
ReplyDeleteHear, hear! I commend you on this move!
ReplyDeleteGood for you!! Anonymous commenters are ridiculous, to say the least.
ReplyDeleteGood for you...I had some weird person names Zisky (?) leave weird nonsense comments...I deleted them.
ReplyDeleteI really don't get people who leave rude comments, I just don't. I've had my fair share of them too!
ReplyDeleteNo kidding! People who leave rude annonymous comments must have some sort of passive aggressive behavior. It's just WRONG! I can't imagine leaving a rude comment anyway. I haven't found anything on any blog I've read yet that would warrant rudeness.
ReplyDeleteWhat jerk holes! I feel like mean comments without an identity is just really insecure people. Even mean comments with an identity is still probably insecure, granted a little more ballsy than the others. Good riddance to THAT!
ReplyDeleteGood move.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic, classy response to a rude and inappropriate anony commentor. Having just suffered my first of many (I'm sure) what a fabulous way to address it. I bascially called my Anony out for mispelling words.. hey, if you're going to be mean, at least spell it right!! Haha.. Looking forward to reading more of your blog!
ReplyDeleteAMEN! Tell those jerks to stop hiding in the shadows and grow some balls and say what they want to your face. It's just as bad as talking smack behind your back really. Glad you put a stop to it!
ReplyDeleterock on sister!
ReplyDeletePeople have mean things to say to you? I'm so confused.
ReplyDeleteWell said :)
