I will not disable comments on this re-blog because Kasey has a message and the best way to convey this message is not to disable comments on this re-blog from Kasey....

Via Kasey & John Boles Boise, Meridian, Ada/Canyon/Gem Counties (Jon Gosche Real Estate, Boise ID):

 I wish people didn't disable comments on re-blogs.

 I understand that the purpose is to give respect and due credit to the original blogger and to encourage people reading the post to go and comment on the original blog. 

I, however, like to comment on BOTH.  Often I see the re-blogs through bloggers that I am subscribed to and/or am friends with.  I like to comment first on the re-blog post and thank the person for making a great choice on a re-blog and bringing it to my attention. Or, if it is my blog post that they have re-blogged I want to go over to their post and thank them for thinking my post is worthy of a re-blog.

Also, sometimes different conversations will ensue on these post versus the original comment thread.

RE-BLOG

And, after that, I like to head over to the original blog post and comment there as well.

I'm often bummed when I go to make a comment on someone's re-blog and they have disabled the comments.

 Is anyone else with me on this?

Sincerely,

Kasey

Hi, Praful...I think I agree. I just enabled comments on a reblog I did because of this reblog. I think it does encourage more conversation amongst the members.

Praful, I, too, like to comment on the reblog as well as the original post. Many times the person who has reblogged has a different take on the post.

Ah! Yes! See, now I get to comment on your reblog.  (Thanks by the way!).  I love your lead in to the re-blog.  And I love that you have 4 comments so far on the reblog.  Sweet!

Praful, I think people disable comments because they see so many others do it … without really knowing why.  I’m guilty!  I will not disable comments on re-blogs unless there is so darn good reason to do so.

Guilty! I disable comments on a reblog depending on the situation - especially if it is a newly posted content or I am wanting to shift the focus to the other person.

Praful:  I know all about reading a re-blog... and then scrolling down to make a comment, and finding that commenting has been "disabled."  Poop !

And yes... different threads CAN develop... even when a post is re-blogged more than once.  In reading this post... I find I agree with every single point made.  What an excellent post.

I think one of the great things about a reblog is that you get to start an entire new conversation... whereas obviously if the comments are blocked, you cannot.
