ClickOnDetroit

Much has changed since LilRebel C wrote that review more than 10 years ago, but not for the better. They now use viafora instead of Disqus, but they still refuse to permanently ban offenders while banning other commenters unfairly (no, I'm not one of them).

They also 'disable' comments that in no way 'violate their community guidelines' while leaving inflammatory comments in place (and not just mine). No matter how many times I, and others, have complained, nothing changes. Emails are ignored or lip service and flimsy excuses are given.

For months, the site was a free for all. Then they suddenly decided to 'crack down'. But the rules, as well as the enforcement of those rules, are very inconsistent.

In short, they thrive on the toxic environment they foster.

ClickOnDetroit is much like Click2Houston.com. They both use Disqus comment program. COD has some major problems with Trolls though. Namely, the Boji brothers. These two harass, impersonate and stalk other bloggers to various sites that use Disqus since they have a Disqus blog account on COD. It's not Disqus' fault though. ClickonDetroit refuses to do anything about these two. They have numerous alias profiles and names and it's COD's responsibility to handle the complaints and moderate the site but thus far, they haven't even responded to bloggers complaints nor gotten rid of these two that are behind this. They stir up trouble between bloggers just to watch the turmoil. In all fairness there are some good, friendly bloggers on the site but the trolls can and often are brutal. Enter this site as a blogger at your own risk, lol. COD, like Click2Houston aren't going to help at all.
