Reader Comment Tweaks

Hi folks,
Please expect some weirdisms over the next hour or so as I am playing with the Reader Comment backend a little. There won't be any noticeable changes to what you can do with it when I am finished, but since there are appearing more and more trouble makers, I am setting up some extra checks and putting the beginnings of our new a-hole detector scheme for the next release.

So for those that think differently, we do know our arses from our elbows ;-)

Steve.

there must be something funky going on since it says there's 9 comments & only 6... or 10 - 7?........

It says I have reader comments when I hold my cursor over the reader comments button, but when I try to read them, it says "No comments"
Help!

I`m confused, all the comments on my diary seemed to have just disapeared, and I didn`t delete them ???
Stormangel (Legacy)
thankyou, they have returned now, I thought I was going crazy. :)

There's a comment in my diary where it appears that the IP address or some other number is at the end of the comment. It's from yesterdays, last entry.

Steve and Matt:

I applaud you for your patience.

We're going to drive you guys insane. Here's a simple solution to your unending problem. Discontinue the Comments feature. No one gets to comment anymore. We just write for ourselves and no one else ... not for hits and not for comments. It's not a popularity contest.

Put an end to the freak show! Discontinue the comments and both your lives would be much easier.

Yours, Rebecca

LOnesblue, Speak for yourself. I like comments, why, because 99% of the ones I get are insightful and interesting. Lonesblue, if you don't like comments you can make sure they don't show up on your diary. Just go to customize. Anywho, thanks admins for trying to make this deardiary.net a more enjoyable experience.

WHY DON'T I GET *MY* OWN DEARDIARY1 ENTRY, MATT AND STEVE AND LES?

It's not fair.

I think each diarist (name;) should be allowed to generate only 5 (?) comments a day. You'd think twice before you wasted a comment on a mean unnecessary comment, or if you didn't, at least there'd be a cap on the ammount of damage you could do each day.

'Course it wouldn't stop people like me. :)

How long do you guys think they are going to let this nonsense go on? Please get on with your lives and forget about what so and so is saying or doing. It was all in fun for awhile but good grief!

Parodies, parodies of parodies, mocking, jeering. Some lot of adults we have here.

If you have a smart ass comment about what I just said feel fee to email me. The address is right here. Otherwise, go on about your lives for crying out loud.

I shall deliver smart ass comments through any venue I desire, Mr. JAG.

Hello .....my comment has nothing to do w/ the subject but I always wondered about the following:

When checking hits...why are some host #'s 'UNRESOLVED'? What does that mean?

Hope you don't mind my asking.

: )
GoldNToasty (Legacy)
Monstergal, I bet I can answer that one before Matt and Steve can. They're really busy, and I'm just a wanker.

"Unresolved" hits are from connections that have never made hits to the diary before. It takes a little while for first time connections to become "resolved",or show up on the Hit List as actual numbers, so until they do, it looks like you're getting a bunch of hits from a single place, where it's usually a bunch of places lumped together under "unresolved"

Matt, Steve, Les, was I right? Say while you're twiddling with those comments, could you do something about that "IRRITATING"&quot&quot problem.

And could we have colors in the comments again, and different kinds of fonts and sizes, and A HREF and Bolds and Italics there, too? Pretty Please?

LOL. Hey, at least I've only written one DD@abuse letter this week.

I would hate to be limited to just 5 comments a day. I can see the logic,,,,,but a person could use different names for example Jamisinc, Jamisinc1, Jamisinc2 so on and still comment many many times. But I make legit comments nomally not more than 5 a day. But on a day that I would want to I hope we can continue to have the privelege.

Thank you ~ GoldNToasty
