So it begins...

If someone is banned from bad/spam run comments, all their comments should be deleted as well.

They should make it like one or two comments per run to stop bots

Better idea: They shouldn't have made comments to begin with.

Or if they kept comments, just limit how much you can say.

Or y'know, maybe beta test these features and run them by users first so stuff like this doesn't happen.

Elo pls

Noone has posted anymore runs with spam comments lol That's probably because no-one gets a notification if a comment is posted nor is it in the game's audit log

Does the runner get a notification if someone comments on their run?

lul then what is the point of them, if someone asks about a strat they need help with the runner can't answer because they don't even know that the comment exists

@1 And there a lot of forum posts replying to those posts, explaining why it might not be a good idea.

Frankly it's disrespectful to the community and downright irresponsible to release an update in this state.

You're leaving run submissions unmoderated and unable to be moderated due to the lackluster, and to put it bluntly, unfinished commenting feature (that nobody can opt out of). This update was rushed, not thought out, not given an opportunity for feedback prior to release, and just dumped out on a weekday afternoon with little fanfare.

Bugs are being fixed, but the huge site-affecting issues aren't being addressed.

This update should not be live yet, period. ELO, you took on a responsibility when you acquired this site. And you're leaving a stain on the community by turning a deaf ear to the volumes of "hey, this is literally harmful" feedback you're getting, while silently fixing minor things in the background.

Time to revert the changes until you get the job done properly.
