is posting derogatory comments as anonymous JUSTIFIED?
i recieved a comment on my blog recently telling me that i write crap and the person hasnt read more crap/sorry thing in his whole life.and i should stop writting
my question: is it right? i never claimed to be a kafka-clone. i jus started writting coz i liked to express myself.if you dont like my way of writting you have every right to think so.but why use anonymous name to post comments.
no writting is perfect.there is always a chance of improvement and ppl like comments telling them how to do better. I DO.
but this is my first instace of such extreme reaction. has it happened to you? IS THIS RIGHT?
Yeah something similar happened to me on someone else's blog. Check it out here.
I think there is no reason that someone should choose to remain anonymous to cast aspersions on someone's blog or the way he/she writes. I think it is just being stupid. So i don't generally count anonymous comments such as these as serious ones. If someone is anonymous, he/she doesn't have the courage to own up a statement as their own.
Now wait. Here anonymous means being "Anonymous" in general. You can call me anonymous because my parents probably haven't named me The Xeno and I don't look like Dalai Lama's hand print. But The Xeno is still an identity. And I always use it in the blogosphere.
@xeno na it was ANONYMOUS that means no name. i felt so bad at that.if that person didnt like the way i wrote, atleast say so but try and be decent.now my blogs are comment moderated.
seriously ANONYMOUS COMMENT = NOT COOL
Yeah. In my blog too.... anonymous comments are disabled. But no comment moderation.
@xeno i m not taking any chances after this :P moderation is the word
Unmoderated comments disturb the serenity of a blog and makes readers to stay away from the blog, or atleast the comments area.
@ranjith agree and moreover these ppl dont hav anything to offer.they jus want to bash everything.
@arti now me too
Yeah, I agree! Anonymous comments can put you off as a blogger especially the derogatory ones. But Animesh is right, Just take out the crux of it and use it for your betterment, ignore the rest of it, just dont bother!My first and only brush with an anonymous comment had come when I was quite new in the blogging world. You can see it here. But the person was really very kind I must say. He first appreciated my blog and then went on with his opinions. Though it did shake me up a little bit coz I was new but still I did not take it as an offence. And replied to the best of my knowledge and capabilities!
@arti thats wat my point is.if u didnt like something, SAY IT. and i f u hav nothing constructive to say, why bother commenting.wish i could show u his comments but i deleted them
ya precisely my point.ppl have the right to their opinion but why bother me wid such comments
@tys hehehehhehehehh well said. man i m fan of ur humor
Hemal likes it!! 
@umeshji yep great similey used there :P comments moderated now
The commentator has made himself anonymous only because he has no reasons to support his viewpoints. I think that generally such comments are made by co bloggers who are envious of your blog.
hmmm, Envy is often colored green.. difficult to see through.. but bad to have... may be one reason, who knows!
@ranjith agree with u.i might as well take that as a compliment then
@arti hehehehhe didnt notice his face colour :P
@hemal lol
