It always baffles me when it's read as a one-sided use/abuse situation, on either side of the fence.

My turn to "word" you. ;)

I completely understand not commenting on a post like that. I think I'm a little insane or asking for some serious trouble by not locking certain ranty things, but I have two people in particular who read my LJ and don't have LJs of their own and I like to know their opinions. Plus there's that whole I'm an opinionated bee-yotch and don't care who knows it thing...
