Comments with the most loose of links to the original post and of no benefit to the blog reader is not something I want on my blog, regardless of how it is classified.

Interestingly the problem has stopped after enabling moderation so I guess people don’t bother posting if they know it will be moderated.

I assure you I will not be blocking comments because I disagree, I actually welcome all comments (including silly ones “D” ;-) ), I will just not be allowing posts with no content purely so someone can get a link to your business on my blog.
