Wait!! Are you wondering how I'm using commentluv on my blogger blog ?? 

But there was problem!!

IntenseDebate comment system by default have a dofollow tag which means that your site will give a dofollow link to everyone who comments on your blog, and infact it will give 2 dofollow links if you have commentluv enabled. (One will be the Name link and other will be commluv recent post link).

Did you identify the problem ??  

Let me explain! since your blog has dofollow comments enabled, your blog becomes a centre of attraction for spammers. And by spammers I mean that people will start posting irrelevant and spammy comments just to get a dofollow link. They will try to use your blog to build links for their event blogs, micro niche blogs or any other blog. Your Loyal readers will never stop commenting on your posts even though you have a nofollow tag, so this way you will also be able to distinguish between spammers and your loyal readers.

So for the same reason I have come with a simple javascript that will add a nofollow tag to your comment system thus making every link in the comment NoFollow including the commentluv link.
