But if you'd pondered longer about what I'd posted, do you think you might've realised I was writing more about the content of comments than their etiquette?
Before I started on LJ, I'd been on a message-board where it was common for discussions to last for days or weeks. I noticed there, as did others, that the better comments were from those who'd given themselves time to think about the topic. With LJ though, comments were usually all over in a day, which I found odd.
I just think it'd be interesting and useful for a service to force people to think about the subject for a while before commenting on it.
