well, it matters to me what you would say!

i agree with having a comment policy, and on some levels i agree with her. i've been lucky enough to not get too many negative comments, and am afraid that day might come because of the overall changing of the blog landscape.

that said, i don't think scrutiny is all that bad. maybe jane shouldn't smoke. if everyone i know didn't tell me to quit smoking, repeatedly, I'd still be smoking (and this was before my blog). maybe lindsay lohan SHOULD get sober. maybe angelina jolie needs to get off her high horse. and maybe joe jackson needs to go to therapy (among other things).

sometimes criticism and scrutiny is the universe's way of telling you you're not on a good path. sometimes. not all the time though.

on my blogs, i allow comments that disagree with my posts, but there is zero tolerance for abusive comments, the line between that? well, it's case by case.
