I've decided to drop Haloscan for my comment service
Due to inappropriate text ads being displayed on the comment entry pages.
Slightly conservative independent commentary and discussion for all subjects, Political, Social, economic, or just plain old life. Please contribute, but vulgar or obscene comments will be deleted, so keep it clean. Updates are sporatic, but when I do update, it's usually several times in a given day. So if you don't see anything for awhile, keep coming back.

I can't see what you class as inappropriate so it must be something personal, or probably politically against your own vies.
Haloscan offers an excellent service, and I would recommend signing up for their premium service to get rid of all the ad's.
I thought they did a good job of vetting adverts.
I am totally against the treatment of root vegetables in todays society and I did once have an advert for fresh young carrots appear. I just ignored that advert and considered it a one off, it wasn't nothing to get into a stew about.

True, but I don't look at them all that often, and when I do check and see "lesbian misbehivin", it's not too thrilling. Also when ALL of the ads in rotation on a given day are to extremist liberal/leftist blogs, several of which with extremely offensive (crude, vulgar, sexist) titles. I just don't want that associated with mine. Besides, I don't have the volume of comments to really necessitate using Haloscan...if I get more readers and they start requesting trackback links (which is the only reason I went with Haloscan in the first place) then I'll consider, but for now it's just not worth paying for a service nobody really uses. Another reason for Haloscan was the RSS Feed for comments, which was nice because I didn't need to be at my laptop (with it's Outlook setup) to quickly check for comments.
Thank you for your feedback
