The comment in question, in its entirety: "Security is a major issue and it is a top priority for us."
While I agree that there are lots of good comments which are killed for no apparent reason, that's not necessarily the best example you could use. It adds absolutely nothing to the conversation, after all; it's just a sarcastic response to the presence of criticism of wordpress.
- whatusername 16y agoExcept that it was from the founder of Wordpress. A much better response would be to actually get Matt to backup what he says. Ask him to show how the WP team have improved their security in the last 12 months and what they're planning. And besides -- it was a direct, on-topic response. (He responded to a comment saying that automattic needs to make security a top priority..... by saying that security is a top priority) I wasn't having a go at the auto-killing of comments (although I agree that there are some more valuable comments killed). My concern was the piling-on against the relevant players in the article/post in question.
