Message: <blockquote data-quote="Nonei" data-source="post: 5144809" data-attributes="member: 88176">Also after looking at it for another day, and reading everyone's reactions, I think I do like it overall for some of the reasons stated a couple posts above, and I also understand why people might not like it - especially the point about detracting from in-character comments in a PbP thread, and also some comments are just meant to be to that person. I still like the idea of greying out the rectangle and/or hiding the comments in an expandable box as suggested in the other thread by somebody (sorry I couldn't find the original post to credit the person) so those that don't care to see the comments can skip over them easily.----------------This post has 3 comments, click here to expand---------------- I like giving the option of 'hiding' the comment so it is viewable only by the receiver. I also have had the urge to give xp to a few posts I didn't necessarily feel were xp-worthy, just because I wanted to comment on them in-line... perhaps the ability to give a 'neutral' comment on a post would be nice. Of course, that might make more work for the moderators (since some comments might be ban-worthy). Edit: I also liked the suggestion of anonymous thumbs up/thumbs down on the helpfulness of a post, especially if you could sort/filter by helpful posts. Hmm..  I can edit my post to respond to comments left and really confuse people! LOL.  Nifft - I do realize that XP isn't Serious Business (although I have to remind myself that I have a tendency to be Way Too Serious about things sometimes) but it would be nice if it generally remained a reflection of how helpful someone is, rather than how many of their posts have been commented on.  Although... that may not be too different of a thing!</blockquote>
