It has its plusses and minuses. With it it keeps all comments about a post in the same place and not taking up space in the thread, but it also limits discussion about stuff because all the comments are in the rep comments.

I'm in favor but not by a big margin.

[RycePooding]

if you feel strongly about something and reckon you wanna discuss it, post a comment. don't over think

[g2x222]

I like rep comments for small and funny asides, but I hate when people ask questions in rep comments. It totally kills the discussion and it gets confusing when you see answers in posts without any questions

[deadkitty]

I feel like repping someone's fit and saying "this is bad" or something along those lines isn't the best use of rep comments either

[jrisk]

I don't think just negging a fit is any better

Does anybody else have trouble staying logged-in to care-tags, especially on mobile? I keep getting logged out and I'm not sure why.

[RomanEmpire]

Yeah it happens to me on mobile. It'll stay logged in for a couple days or so and then it'll log me out.

[ramdomthought]

as far as i can tell the forum allows you to login in one spot and if you log in elsewhere it boots the previous login

[thomaspaine]

site has been crazy slow for me lately, lot of times it just fails to load.

[ramdomthought]

What browser are you using ?

I'm chrome cross platform

[iamacyborg]

Opera on desktop, Chrome on Android.

Should really make much difference though.

we seem to be inundated with bots today.

[rjbman]

how do the bots get past the captcha?

[exprof]

Is it possible to set it so you need a certain amount of rep to post a thread? Seems like it would solve the bot problem.

[bels]

They will probably just post in existing threads instead but maybe it's a good idea anyway if it's not to difficult to set up

[rjbman]

We could preemptively ban all the obviously spam accounts.

[prawnzee]

pls modbois get your act together ^_^

it's getting ridiculous that half the posts are from bots right now

[sick boy]

[rjbman]

Thanks to the mods for eliminating (as far as I can tell) the constant spam that was plaguing the site!

[balloons]

if I don't open care-tags pages in a new tab, it loads endlessly. tried on two different browsers, but same problem. is this something with my internet or is anyone else seeing this happen too?

[jrisk]

500 users! yay you're the lucky winner !

[SweetJavaBrown]

What does win?

[kayeight]

wow I guess I have good timing

[paf]

I'm on the site on an iPad 99% of the time, and embedded videos from Vimeo don't show up for me. Is this something that anyone else experiences, and is this fixable?

[popcorn]

very quick question, is there an irc / other chat form?

[CleanThug]

Yep #care-tags on freenode irc

(Iirc)

[raags]

https://kiwiirc.com/client/irc.freenode.org/care-tags is the link for the web client

[purkinje]

What's the 'popular post'/green system tied to? I noticed the threshold for it keeps going up. Is it tied to # of users? Is it automatic or do one of you keep updating it manually? Just curious.

[Syeknom]

It's updated manually at the capricious whims of those with power
