One of my blogs has been flooded with BS ever since I turned dofollow on and added the "Top Commenters" plugin. I totally feel you, mate!

That is the price people pay for DoFollow policies, but at the same time, DoFollow really encourage more people to participate in posting comments. Can't expect everyone to have valuable things to say. If you are talking about spam like "Great post!!!", then I understand how you feel.

If you're blog was dofollow, I'm sure you would've taken this step ages ago! Anyways, would you mind telling us what qualifies as a legitimate comment?

I know in the past, when I ran my own personal blog, I too had to do this, but the one thing I did differently though, is that I openly expressed to my readers, what exact type of comments I would approve and what type of comments I would not. I had a link near the comment box saying "comment policy", and you'd be surprised how much that cut down on some of the spammers who would just leave comments like "nice post" or "thank you" etc. I hope this helps!

I just noticed you deleted the majority of the comments here and most seemed pretty legitimate? Out of curiousity, what would you consider a legitimate comment?
