I am not going to throw more wood in the fire because this is all subjective, but I thought I would note something to prevent confusion:

" If you want to keep users from posting on your blog, just protect your blog on the top of it. However, admins will still be able to post."

I'm not sure what exactly it means, but to prevent further comments on blogs the user who created it or any admin can uncheck "Commenting" when you edit the page. That is the only protection. Unfortunately there is no option to close specific reply threads. Admins cannot post on a blog if it is closed from commenting, it would be unnecessary for an admin to have that extra privilege, I believe a blog is the user's choice, if I could I would enable users other than admins to have control over which discussions take place and end on their own blogs, but that is a Wikia restriction out of my control.

As the discussion has become rather unpleasant and I've gotten email complaints (we simply cannot have this taking place, it's scaring people off) you can request certain threads in these comments to be removed, MerlinUSA, or you can even have this blog removed. It's your blog and if this is taking you off track I am here. I thought I would just help out! Thanks!
