Will I be informed of new comments?
Following the path "new" > "comments" on the administration page of a particular blog, you have acccess to three features. You can order alert emails for every new comment made, display the five most recent comments on your weblog and order a resume of all the latest news via email. Whether you're updated daily, weekly or monthly is totally up to you.
Should I allow comments or not?
The authorization for each entry can be determined while editing your blog ("Entries" > "New entry" for a new entry or "Entries" > "Edit entries" and modify an existing entry). You can then find comment settings beneath the text area of your editor.
Instead of changing comment settings every time you write a new entry, you can update the default settings for your weblog at "Weblog" -> "More options..." -> "Entry settings".
You can also protect yourself from unwanted comments with this feature. In general, receiving comments is a great idea, because it gives you a chance to interact with other users as well as receive feedback on the posts you make. Plus, if you don't open your posts to other users, you won't be able to receive stars - Movies, Concerts, Streams......'s virtual candy (if enabled by your system administrator)!

Is there an overview for received comments?
If you have not activated comment tracking, you need to click on the small icon on the right hand side of the "Comments in this Weblog" headline. This directs you to the "Settings for comment tracking" page. There, you need to tick "Activate comment tracking" and save your settings. Also, you can choose whether you would like to receive an instant e-mail upon new comments, or display the 5 most recent comments on your weblog (thus being visible for your readers).

If I leave a comment, will I be informed if someone responds to it?
After you've posted your own comment, all further comments in the thread would be tracked there.
It is also possible to activate a personal email alert so you're notified of new comments.
You can activate this feature by clicking on the icon right next to the "Discussions on other blogs" headline, which directs you to "Follow discussions in other weblogs" settings. There, you can choose whether you want to read the comments on the aforementioned page, or if you want to have an e-mail sent to you upon each new comment in that thread.

How does comment moderation work?
This might be useful if you are on vacation and want to avoid inappropriate content to be published during your absence.
If you have comment notifications enabled, you will see unpublished comments highlighted on your comment overview page. However you cannot publish them on that page, yet you have to access that comment to read it and can then publish it.
