On Readers and Commentators

I remove a moderately large number of comments from my blog because they violate my rules, that would include most of the comments some weeks.  I write on very controversial topics so that's not surprising.

I don't know why most of the people who read the pieces I write read them without commenting on them.   When a long, involved post gets 200 or more page views, someone is reading it,   Many of those don't get comments.

There are blogs where the many comments hardly ever are on the topic of the blog post, some seem to ignore the blogger completely.  If given the choice between readers and commentators who don't read the posts, I'd rather have readers.   Apparently they find something worth the effort.
