I know it is purely anecdotal but I find myself not posting much on the FP anymore since it just gets lost in the mix and because you see burners getting top billing. I wonder what the raw number are on commenting now that Tiger has been implemented. Is it up and I am just an anomaly?

I haven't done much reading of the front page in a while, much less commenting. Usually, I take a look at the comments and...

I honestly find Oppo more entertaining so I rarely find myself on the FP anymore, but I've tried to follow a few conversations (I guess that's what you call them now. . .) since this last "upgrade" and it just seems annoying that you have to keep on clicking to expand the chain of comments, sometimes the lead comment is shit but the ones that follow are gold. It is just a case of horrible management of comments on Dentons behalf and blind delusions that it is the way of the future and a more engaging way of commenting. I really am tired of all of the commenting system changes, in another year there will be something completely different and broken in new ways and really nothing will change. When the new tiger bullshit apocalypse happens to Oppo, I fear I may leave here as well. I mean really, the gawker empire has made it perfectly clear that they don't give a shit about the thoughts of who use their sites regularly so really the only response is just to abandon them all together.

I've given up, it's too hard to try and follow a conversation. Read the article, come back to Oppo for discussions.

I check the front page for planes and rally/desert racing. Planes I read the article and ignore the comments. Rally/desert I read and contribute to comments. That said I have tiger turned off, so...

Nope, it's not just you. I read NCOCP for Ghostie's writing, vote, and leave. No point in commenting on much of anything because inscrutable commenting system is inscrutable. No point in trying to read comments because I can't follow a conversation. Gamecat figured out my age (let's just say I'm a long way out of high school and college) and I figure that means I get tagged as a old fart who's a technotard.
I found that I preferred the current Oppo-stylee commenting system over the olde-skool 'tree' like on Reddit; the Kinja Tiger is just too damn obtuse and I'm not sure I want to make the effort to learn its whims knowing that Denton might wake up one morning with a boner and decide to fuck it all up again....

I don't post on the front page at all anymore, nor do I read it. Oppo is much more my style.

I haven't been commenting or engaging much either.
