Well Point, how many Prisoners in a country like North Korea have to go on video and declare that communism is best? Denton's is out to kill comments. On sites like Kotaku and IO9 we made better content than the writers. so there's no competition now.

A friend saw the new commenting system and what they did to TAY. This is what he said. "They stuck TAY in a Ghetto."

so it has no purpose whatsoever other than pissing people off? Actually... that makes a lot of sense.

The thing that bothers me about the new Gawker commenting system other than the absolutely flawed reasoning behind it (Doc mentioned to me that it might be to make it more Tablet friendly, which kind of makes sense, despite the fact that that is a viewer base that really doesn't exist in any important form) is just how god awfully designed and broken it is. It's worse than the new Discuss layout, and that says a lot. Branching discussions completely break concentration and focus and completely undermines discourse. I mean, I know next to nothing about web design and this sort of thing. So If you give something to me and I can see its an awful piece of crud, then you know you've done something truly and awfully wrong.
