Although in my case, those tend to be from <i>other</i> sources than my blog. :P The Sojourner: Glad to be of service! o> reversethieves: I just chalk it up to "different strokes for different folks", since everyone has their reasons. IKnight: I don't know. I have had a post or two where I saw from the comments that people were missing the point, but I don't think that's too much of a problem. Especially when I'm jumping in at least trying to steer the conversation back on track, or adapting my main point to the current conversation. And I'm nowhere near big enough to start to be overwhelmed by comments just yet. :3 Kabitzin: That too. Although in my case, those tend to be from other sources than my blog. :P

(I didn't find that on my own, I had help. My Blog Theory Level is still firmly below nine thousand.) I think I'd be tempted to turn comments off if I began to get so many that I couldn't reply to all of them. Maybe this suggests why you might not want comments?

I just can't understand it. Maybe they are afraid they won't get comments and that would make them sad. Congrats on hitting the 1000 mark! Why would anyone NOT want comments?

But I shouldn't be stopping you from doing anything. :P IKnight: I probably know less than you do. :3 blissmo: Not so much. Anime and my interest in keeping this up for fun does. People commenting does help though. Shin and C.I.: Google search for Yoko does wonders. It's not even bad in the slightest. :P C.I.: Deshou?

Also, I too like it when readers comment. It makes me feel slightly warm and fuzzy inside when people read the insanity I spew and have 2 cents worth of feedback to give. I HEARD YOKO PIC.

Which can be a plus, as it means that one post can force others to generate content for themselves. But of course it leaves readers without blogs voiceless. This reminds me how little Blog Theory I know.
