I just gave up on them for a while there. And you can see by the amount of time I took to moderate these comments as to how painful the whole process is. I just gave up on them for a while there.

They don't even bother to read the post and just make a general comment and in most cases a complete off-topic one. At least if their comment was relevant, I wouldn't mind giving a link back.

I think that will be a primary turn off to people who do that. Also spend a few days deleting such comments to send a clear message.

You get all these generic comments like "Great Post, added to my Rss," like this is somehow supposed to make up for the fact that there is no content in the comment and they are linking to some XXX site. Blows my mind that this eve still works. However, what is even worse is when you end up coming across a blog that seems to have good intentions and be a quality site, but they don't moderate these kinds of comments away...

Any higher and all I'll be doing is moderating comments. So I'm going to give do-follow another chance for now.
