My comments are set to friends-only; that is to say, people who are friended by my account get a free pass. Other LJ registered folk go into a screening bin and I unscreen the comment if it is relevant and non-offensive (this saved my bacon a couple of times because the comment in the screen bin, albeit with a LJ handle, came fully equipped with a rather eye-watering close-up of female genitalia - which I don't particularly want plastered all over my blog, thankyouverymuchindeed.) Anonymouse posting in commentary has been turned off for a VERY long time here - not so much because of direct spam (although it helps there) but because I seem to attract a particular KIND of nasty because of my background and ethnicity. I have no truck with that. If anyone wants to spew their poison they can do it in places that are NOT my own "cyber-house".
Sorry, but them's the breaks. It isn't as though people are breaking down the doors to comment here - I don't get a Scalziesque comment load in any event, and this minor policing makes it manageable, for me.
