Dearest Bloglit,

From this point forward, I am going to start moderating comments on my blog. This means that your comments may not show up immediately after you post them because I will have to review and approve their content before allowing them for public viewing.

Please don't let that discourage you from posting, my friends. I love to hear from all of you and would be very sad not to get your feedback.

I only take this course of action because there have been a few harassing, threatening comments of late that have served no purpose other than to piss me off. So for those choosing to make such comments, I have a brief message that I think makes my point quite well...

YOU SUCK! And you will NOT have a voice on my blog. Why? Because my blog is not a democracy.


Have a nice day!

Polly PI...princess of the blog.

Polly,

That sucks. Does Blogger let you see the IP addresses of those posters?

You guys are the best. Thanks for the kind words.

Oh, and yes, Lorrie, I CAN get the IP of the person that is posting the comments, as a matter of fact. Anything you can do for me?

Oh, and CONGRATS TO YOUR SISTER ON HER NEW BABY BOY!!!

I called to check up on her yesterday and you can imagine my surprise when her husband answered and I heard a newborn crying in the background! I'm just thrilled for them.

You are the Princess of the blog, Polly!

How dare anyone threaten or be a smarta** to you!

I know a group of people who would be happy to form a posse and go after whoever it is! :-)

I was wondering when this would happen. There's just something about an attractive, smart, funny, and confident woman that brings out the jerk in some people. It's a good move on your part.

You want anyone killed, Polly, you know who to ask.

Molly Sue says....Hmmmm, this sounds like a certain Uncle I know...could it be the daughter sounds like her DAD!! Hahahahha...Good luck my friend.

PollyME said...

Molly Sue! haha! If I'm the princess it's only because Dad is the undisputed king.

I was just thinking the other day of how much I miss you and the other cousins.

We'll have to get together again real soon.

I had to do the same to mine. However, mine was from a spammer. Innocuous. Sorry you had to deal with that BS.

As long as you don't take down the blog!!!! You're a funny version of Quincy!

Boy, do I know all about this shite... Creepy-weird online harrassment by a bunch of mysoginist a$$holes was part of the reason why I separated my photo-showcase website and its guestbook from my blog and its comments. (Not to mention there's apparently a whole why-jane-sucks forum out there! WTF?!) JD Rhoades is totally spot-on with his comment. Rock on, Polly, and don't stop blogging.

PollyME said...

Thanks, Janey.

You are by far one of the coolest chicks I've ever met so that helps me realize this is just part of the deal when you throw yourself (or part of yourself) out there for the world to see.

Jeepers!

Polly, I hope I'm not the one you mention. All I did was make a joke about you & the vitamins.

PollyME said...

Oh, heaven's no, BulletBill! You're awesome. You've never said anything that would even come close to offensive. And it takes a LOT to offend me. Really. :-)
