I tag people as a means of using their name to be polite and friendly. Never considered this would be seen as annoying, I guess we're all different! ;)

I found your post amusing to read, I'm sure many really resonate with it. I did a post today offering healing and said to comment if you'd like healing and got ' please read my blog and up-vote me'

I was planning on replying 'I am not an up-vote bot' but didn't!

Well done you on just flagging all irrelevant replies, I guess that does send out a message that they're not welcome.
