Sharing some good/useful comments does seem to help a bit with "comment karma" :-) @Clapping Trees - LinkLove is what I was using for the past week, but I was experimenting with much lower numbers than 10. In hindsite, perhaps I should've used numbers closer to 10! @Single Grain – I have to admit, it becomes tedious.

As a result, I have replaced the DoFollow plugin with the LinkLove plugin and I have set the minimum count to 10. This mean only those with 10 or above moderated comments get linked on my blog. ;-) I share your frustration.

I think if you are using Do follow then you'll be able to attract comments but as you experienced...more of spammy nature. What I've noticed is that if we make some good comments over other blogs..then we get good response too. I think you did the right thing by removing the do folow plugin.

It became an obsession or a "psychic weight" that was driving me nuts. I lost the ability to trust a commenter as I was too busy wondering about motives. Ultimately, it's a selfish thing I've done... and I'm ok with that. :-D Thanks for thoughts. @Snoskred

Chris, I think you could turn yourself inside out wondering if a link is spammy or for SEO purposes.

Bingo. It became an obsession or a “psychic weight” that was driving me nuts. I lost the ability to trust a commenter as I was too busy wondering about motives.

Thanks for thoughts.
