Well I have read the article, I have nothing to add directly, yet I have commented twice in reply to other comments. Should I get a 2 week ban for bot commenting directly? Perhaps people want to discuss some issues raised or some side issue/interest about the article? We are here to discuss afterall, and I am more than a little disappointed to see someone being upset for comments that may be to the side of the article. If they were all political posts, okay I could understand, but they arnt. Edit: I am reading the top third comments, most popular threads bottom thirds are, well ignored for a reason(and hence downvoted)
