First thing first, I wanna thank all my readers for taking your precious time to leave your comments on this blog of mine. I am grateful for your participation. Recently it has come to my attention that not all of my blog readers are viewing the comment sections of this blog in the same way as I do. Some of my readers completely ignore its existence by not leaving their comments while others have abused it by posting off-topic, irrelevant comments which are self-serving. I HATE SPAM! Read on to find out how I handle spammy comments.
On my blog, you are welcomed to leave any kinds of comments, as long as they are relevant to my blog posts. I don't mind receiving criticism if they are constructive ones.

I can accept it if you disagree with what I am sharing on my blog, after all no 2 minds think alike aye?
