I can’t always respond to comments even though I’d like to, but I do read every single one of them and appreciate your input.

However:

Things that Pretty Much Guarantee Comment Deletion

- Spam, obviously.

- Directing my readers to your own article, post, or website. This has to be my number-one comment pet peeve. I’d never go to your website to highjack your readers over to mine; please don’t do it to me.

- Personal attacks or insults. Disagreeing with me or anyone else on here is fine, but play nice.
