ALL COMMENTS ARE MODERATED

AT LEAST A FEW DOZEN TIMES A DAY, I AM FACED WITH MODERATING COMMENTS TO THE TEA ROOM.
I CHOSE TO MODERATE ALL COMMENTS BECAUSE, FROM THE BEGINNING, I SAW THAT THE VAST MAJORITY WHO WENT THROUGH THE PROCESS OF SUBMITTING COMMENTS ALSO INCLUDED SUBTLE OR BLATANT LINKS TO WEBSITES ADVERTISING EVERYTHING FROM BREAST AUGMENTATION TO "BELLY RUBS"...NO, LITERALLY, THERE WAS ONE COMMENT IN WHICH THE LINK DID INDEED LEAD ONE TO AN OFFER OF "BELLY RUBS"!!!

THIS WEBSITE ALLOWS NO ADVERTISING AND CERTAINLY I SHALL NEVER ALLOW LINKS TO MUCH OF ANYTHING THAT RESEMBLES ADVERTISING.

AS COMMENTS COME IN, I "ARMOR UP" AND DIVE INTO LINKS , SOME THAT HAVE TAKEN MY COMPUTER DOWN FOR DAYS, INFECTED IT WITH TROJANS, ETC, JUST SO MY READERS WILL NOT SUFFER THESE THINGS.

I HAVE INVESTED IN BETTER VIRUS PROTECTION SOFTWARE BECAUSE OF THESE IDIOTIC ATTEMPTS BY FAKE "COMMENTS" TO LURE READERS HERE INTO MALICIOUS SITES OR TO FAKE "BUSINESSES".

SO HERE'S THE BOTTOM LINE...
COMMENTS, ALL COMMENTS ARE STRICTLY MODERATED, AND I ALONE DECIDE WHAT GOES INTO AN ONLINE COMMENT.
I CAREFULLY CHECK OUT ALL LINKS, EVEN THOSE ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR "SCREEN NAME".

I WILL NEVER ALLOW LINKS TO APPEAR HERE UNLESS THEY APPLY TO THE POST AS IN , PERHAPS, A VIDEO OR WEBSITE WITH FURTHER PERTINENT INFORMATION.

THERE HAVE BEEN A VERY RARE FEW WHOSE BLOGS I VISITED AND FOUND TO BE (1) HARMLESS, AND (2) INFORMATIVE.

IF THE LINK YOU DROP IN YOUR COMMENTS LEADS TO YOUR MASSAGE PARLOR, "CHARM STUDIO", OR SOME OTHER QUESTIONABLE ENTERPRISE, OR YOUR OFFER OF MARRIAGE TO BEAUTIFUL GIRLS, OR YOUR SMUT/PORN PAGES, OR SOME SCHEME, BE ASSURED IT WILL NEVER SEE LIGHT OF DAY HERE.

THE TEA ROOM WAS NOT CREATED FOR "POPULARITY'S SAKE".
I DON'T CARE IF ANYONE READS HERE OR NOT, AND I CERTAINLY DON'T CARE IF EVER ONE COMMENT IS LEFT.
I HAVE DISABLED EVERYTHING I CAN THAT APPLIES TO THIS SITE'S POPULARITY, EVEN DOWN TO HOW MANY READ HERE IN A DAY/WEEK/MONTH.
NONE OF THAT IS IMPORTANT...ONLY TRUTH IS IMPORTANT.

I AM ALMOST TO THE POINT OF DISABLING ALL COMMENTS, BUT WE'LL SEE IF THIS STATEMENT STOPS THE  REQUESTS I GET EACH DAY TO PUBLISH COMMENTS THAT INCLUDE RIDICULOUS OR DAMAGING LINKS.

NOW YOU KNOW WHY LEAVING A COMMENT HERE IS SO "DIFFICULT"...IT'S TO PROTECT THE INTEGRITY OF MY BLOG, TO SAFEGUARD MY READERS.

AND TO THOSE SEVERAL COMMENTS THAT INCLUDED "THE TEA ROOM DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE REALLY CLOSED"...
YOU'RE RIGHT.
THE TEA ROOM IS NOT 'TECHNICALLY' CLOSED.
IT IS SIMPLY ON "UPDATES ONLY"... UNTIL/UNLESS I SAY OTHERWISE.
HOWEVER, IT'S MY TEA ROOM, AND IF I SAY IT'S CLOSED OR ANYTHING ELSE, WHO CAN ARGUE WITH THAT?
MY BLOG, MY CALL.

NOW STOP TRYING TO LEAVE LINKS TO YOUR SITES HERE.
IT'S A WASTE OF YOUR TIME.
WASTE YOUR TIME SOMEWHERE ELSE.
"LEARN, OR PERISH."
