So many people (& bots as well) seem to just think that if they throw a couple of words to show how great your content is then this will bring them rewards beyond their wildest dreams.

Example "great post". Its like well, err, yeah, thanks would have been better if you had not bothered.

What can we do about it apart from ignoring it? Any tips would be welcome but after reading about the keyboard warfare that seems to happen if you engage with these people it all seems pretty harsh...

On a purely separate note I like your name "Renaissance Man" reminds me when I used to go out to a club with two DJ's Sasha and Digweed who together formed the night Renaissance...

Just keep giving those people a good example. Some of them will eventually figure it out, but some will keep doing what they're doing forever.
