BTW you don't use dofollow in comments. To leave comments is really good because you has more attention to your post. BTW you don’t use dofollow in comments.

If the comment is related to your topic and has sense, there's no reason of deleting it. You'll never know that you might learn from it too. I agree with you.

It uses a combination of time based hash and ajax to block spam. I use it myself of both my blogs and now get zero spam from an earlier 40+ per day.

I saw someone in the discussion you linked to report that they had experienced apparently legitimate links that two months later redirected to some adult site, so removing dubious links from comments appears to be a better-safe-than-sorry precaution. I think I'd rather delete the whole comment though, unless it *really* adds value to the discussion. Good idea.

It's true: no good deed, such as dofollow, goes unpunished. I’ve been doing the same thing on my comments, frankly. It’s true: no good deed, such as dofollow, goes unpunished.
