I always moderate my comments. I can't say there has been any real need though as I haven't had any spammy comments so far. I guess at the moment I just want to make sure nothing slips through. My recent post Awesome Fire Extinguisher Keg

I moderate first comments to keep my blog 100% spam free and not burden commenters with captchas and rest of highly annoying anti-spam methods.

If someone feels offended by having to get approval he probably won't stand my personality for long anyway.

I agree with you. Using multiple forms of spam filtering is very annoying. I avoid blogs that make me jump through hoops to get my comments published.

I moderate comments made to my blog for the simple fact I detest trashy, unproductive comments that are of no value to anyone. Like the author here I do not mind negative comments but those laden with filthy remarks I simply will not tolerate.

Excellent posts you have here, well done!

I preview all comments before putting them up on any of my blogs. For the most part I don't trash or edit them unless they are completely off topic, spam, or someone just being a jerk. Don't mind negative comments either, again as long as they are on topic.
