Well I have some suggestions, but it can be a little bit biased about what I want particularly for my project, but I think you can take something out of it: I really like the looks, in the matter that the replys of the comments are followed but that arrow which is very user friendly and appealing. Like the google like icon of the letter. Like the heart (like) and the down (dislike) option, although I'm not sure why I need to click again once I click on the dislike, it should be inmediate, maybe change the icon so it is more friendly (like the facebook finger down or something related) I'm not sure if comments get organized by likes, but I think it would be good if the admin of the page could select if he wants the comments to be displayed in chronological order or by likes. Also following that, I think it would be good if as an admin, I could select a direct message system (no preview, no code structure, with little to no parsing) so users can reply inmediately and without hazzle. In the software-related community this is a good option, but think about other use cases - of your regular internet user - who just wants to comment. That option with the preview and parsing is not useful to him/her. Hope this helps!

Thanks this was interesting info :- ) Yes comments are sorted by like votes, or rather, like votes + also taking into account how many people actually read the comment. (A comment that 5 people read, but everyone upvoted, is probably better than a comment with 10 likes but that 1000 people have read.) Sorting chronologically is something I've thought about enabling too, as a config value. I think I'll add that eventually, ... maybe not in the nearest future though. Ok yes a simpler editor, maybe some WYSIWYG editor that auto-converts Markdown to lists, bold, headers etc immediately directly in a write-a-reply editor directly in the comments iframe, would be nice & better in some/many cases. There were some HackerNews posts about such editors, recently. Hmm what does this mean?: "the google like icon of the letter" — which letter(s)? :- )
