    Strange. Oh well x3 I think that, all in all, I like this new feature. It'll be fun to stalk other people's comments >:3 Haha, just kidding. I think that it'll be easier to look up some of your older comments, cause I always felt that the ones that were shown on the comment dashboard were gone too soon, you know?^^ Maybe it would be a good thing to be able to put the privacy setting for comments to 'just friends' though - maybe some people don't want everyone browsing their comments. But it's cool!^^

    It feels a little pointless to me when there are so many other things that need fixing/improving. It's only useful for so long and after you've looked through all your old crap, the fad wears off. After one scan through, I highly doubt I'll ever even click the thing again. Also, this doesn't really feel like a 'new' feature if you catch my drift.

    At least make the next 'new' feature something more beneficial.

    I'm also fond of the creeper protection and, well, even though I was wary of people stalking my comments at first it's not like overly personal things would be posted in a non-private world anyways.

    I agree with Solenm Serpent and Katana, this is a great feature and I thank you for implementing it, Adam. From what I gather looking at both sides of the argument, there are a lot more positive points than negative and the negative ones can be dealt with pretty easily (creep not leaving you alone? add them to your ignore list or report them).

    Also, twilight samurai's idea is pretty good; having separate sections for Wallpapers, Fan Art and so on would definitely help if you're looking for a particular comment.

    All in all, I approve of this feature wholeheartedly. Now off to embarrass myself by reading six years' worth of comments!

    Edit: in regards to the first point, that's what I've been trying to say in this entire debate: YOU are responsible for what you post. YOU are stupid if you give out your full name, address and whatever else to the world without knowing the possible outcomes. Comments are useful for getting to know someone: Worlds are basically "me me me", but comments show how you treat others.

    @:

    I will say there was a rousing response of disgust to the fact that we had a pervert lurking our site.

    I find your reference to this rather ironic seeing that I just banned two accounts by this persistent pervert in the last week. Creepers don't go away and comments that take more time to track down doesn't deter them one bit. So getting rid of the new feature wouldn't slow them down or stop true predators at all. If it is on the net and public in any manner, they can and will view it. There is no getting around it.

    However, if you could just turn that feature off, that eliminates any usefulness for staff.

    That isn't entirely true. I already had access to viewing comments if needed. We had a limited ability to do so with the previous version before VV. This new deal has some improvements over the previous ability to track comments and yet still has some limitations that we didn't have before.

    So in reality this is more of something that is finally being brought back only on a much larger and more inclusive scale. Anyway, I know that if Adam does add a feature that lets people toggle it off, I will insist that it does not work for staff.


    In the name of the tune I will punish you!

    I think this is kind of a fun idea. I mean sure, I can see the downside of other people being able to see comments that some might be embarrassed about. Still, I think the benefits outweigh the negative aspects. Not only is it a very good way to weed out any potential internet creepers, but it's also a good way to get to know some of the other people here on TheO.

    This seems kind of unnecessary and kind of dumb and looks like it can be exploited. I think it would also help creepers by giving them the opportunity to have someone's comments for up to eight and a half years for some of us. Besides, if you're worried about privacy, then the internet probably isn't for you. Nice try, Adam, but I'm not quite feeling it.

    I like the idea, and you gave very valid reasons for providing this functionality.

    When I went back to my Portfolio, it took me a few moments to figure out where I would view my comments. The "Comments" part of the Portfolio isn't the most conspicuous field... After clicking it, I found myself face-to-face with every single comment I have ever made. (Yes, I know you said this would be the case. :))

    My feedback: It would be nice to somehow separate or segregate my comments. Perhaps we could also be given the ability to view comments we've made on Fan Art or on eCards, etc. Scrolling through (in my case) 50-some pages of comments is overwhelming and a bit taxing, unless I had tons of time on my hand or was extremely bored one day.

    Thanks for keeping us in mind, Adam. You're doing a great job! (And bring on the next challenge! Any time. Any place. >:D)

    If you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all. It's a rule to abide by in real life, and I don't see why that isn't a rule you should abide by online. I can't help but feel that the only reason people really want their comments private is because they want to hide them from certain people.

    The features that are in place respect your privacy where you have marked it private. All this feature does is make it easier to track down your comments; it's not like it brings them back from being deleted or what have you.

    Anyhow, I said my bit on the post congratulating us for breaking the goal, which can be summed up as "ahh nostalgia" and "oh dang I've been here a very long time".

    In the end, I think you're right about this (especially as it seems to be a common feature on other sites). I definitely think people should give it a chance. Let's have a "test-drive" period. Maybe check in and see if sentiments have changed on this one later on, after the feature has gotten some use.

    Alright. So here's the thing. I am not entirely against this idea, but I've just been test-driving the feature - delving through other people's comments - and really, I kind of felt like a bit of a stalker. (So I basically won't be doing that very much).

    What if we had different levels of visibility for comments? Maybe the first page of comments would be visible to friends only, etc., and after that, other people can't see the comments. Perhaps this could just be a choice - individuals could choose if they want to show a limited number of comments, or show them all. And they would, of course have access to all of their own comments.

    I'm still not totally against this idea. But I thought I might throw some other ideas out there.

    I think wanting to make this feature optional defeats the purpose of the feature entirely. Especially with the idea of 'Creeper Protection'. If only members can read your comments, and private comments can only be seen by you, then what is there to hide? Other sites certainly don't offer the option of turning it off and I doubt this update would make any sense if the op-out option were added. :/

    I say, stick to your guns Adam. There were those who disliked Version Vibrant when it came out, and those who were strongly against the front page revision, but each addition has had it's ups and downs, and the site is better with them.

    I really don't have any particular concerns about this. It looks like the necessary protections are in place (only members can see it, etc.), and I might be interested in using it to some extent regarding:

    "...you can browse that person's comments and learn a lot from their feedback to other members."

    Perhaps in the future we'll be able to search our own comments by keywords or category (comments on fanart, on worlds, etc). That would really make things interesting.

    You guys are good, ill give you that. You put up some very convincing arguments to keep the feature in place. And you can't really argue with them. Its not a invation of privicy because there already public, and it is a saftey feature because many people can be a witness to any flaming.

    I'm still not a fan though.

    If perhaps there was a feature that would allow you to turn off outside veiwing, or even just make it avalible to you and yourself only Id be more down with it.

    It all seems a little to... off for me. Like we're putting ourselfs out there more and more for people to see. Its a tad but unsettling, and is a slight bit queer all around.

    I'll vote against.

    Cheers,

    I'm mostly indifferent on the whole issue, not ecstatic about it nor am I freakishly worried. The idea has actually grown on me in the last 24 hours. My two cents on the debate is that there should be consideration to having some kind of on/off option, or a way to make it so only you have access to the master list of all your comments (as opposed to every member of theO). I'm sure it would calm all the worries of people wigging out over this.

    I was a little worried about it at first but now that you've pointed out that only members can view it and it keeps the amount of trolling down (although I honestly haven't seen more than 5 trolling comments on here) I feel better about it.
    I think it's a good idea, though. :)

    THANK YOU. Those last two statements were what I wanted to hear. <3 What I was concerned about. The whole friends-only thing and if only members can read them. :) I think I have too many comments for it to work. I tried going to the last page (of my comments, to see the really old ones)...but I got an error lol. Probably because they were from myO or the older versions?? Or just that having over 14,000 comments is too much to handle? XD

    Finally. I have been trying to explain all of these points to those who are flipping out. Maybe if it's coming from you guys, people will listen even more. :/

    Overall, thank you for the new feature Adam! I love all of the new edits and additions you're making to the site.

    Witty members and laughing at their witty comments.

    I have no idea why that made me laugh so hard xD

    I love looking at my old comments. Especially since it's been a whole year for me! (even longer for some people!) and it's exactly like I said: same old song and dance. People were pissed, now they're okay with it.

    Well, at first I honestly thought this was a little creepy, but it is kind of helpful. I like to look back on old conversations and laugh my little maniac head offXD. That being said, this isn't bad in the least. >XD
