Just a quick note to everyone that reads this blog, i am now using the dofollow plugin which essentially disables the automatic rel=”nofollow” attributes added to external links via comments, so if you do make a comment from now onwards it will benefit you from a traffic and SEO perspective.
I also plan to use the MyAvatar & Top Commentators plugin but i will use that later as I’m about to change (purchase) to a custom theme for this blog, once that is done than all should be rolling.
Thanks

I totally agree that the nofollow hype is just stupid as spammers dont care and the blogosphere has become less dominant in rankings because linklove is not passed on.
Good move and I really hope more people will follow!

Yup Kimmono, totally agree.
As i take a look at my askimet spam section on my blog i realize it makes no difference to have the nofollow, might as well share some link juice since askimet catches spam.

Moses as you are one of the rare bloggers who has any form of legal disclaimer, you might also want to add a comments policy.
I find it cuts down on all the manual spam, and it also probably helps with legal issues.

Congratulations! I believe nofollow killed the spirit of linking. I hope you will get more linkbacks with this.
