About the comments section

Like I mentioned earlier, the comments section is still experimental. I have not yet decided whether to keep it or not. I have read some great discussions there, also readers get to know what others think about the issues I blog about. Plus I get all the feedback I need without burdening my mailbox. I do not intend to edit negative remarks as they are valuable to me. Its impossible to offend me. To tell the truth, I don't really have enough time to handle all the comments. So I will stay out of it. Maybe the whole comments idea wasn't a good one after all. We'll see. If people wish it to stay, I will do my best to keep it up. Also, there are a couple of trolls copying my posts and pasting them as comments repeatedly, they are the same ones who keep filling my mailbox with spam. I filtered them so they can stop bothering now. I really can't understand some people. I will try to limit the maximum length of each comment as some suggested to solve this. I might also get someone to edit the comments section for me. Anyway, a big thanks to everyone who posted their comments.

One more thing. You have to close the comments window after you post a comment. If you fail to do so and keep refreshing the window your post will be repeated every time you reload. So close the window and open a new one which you can refresh with no problems until you post a new comment. Thanks to CharlesWT for pointing this out.
