I asked dang once and he said like 1% of visitors comment.
- rahimnathwani 2y agoI had assumed that the majority of accounts are created when the owner first wants to write a comment (or post a submission). I wonder whether dang meant 1% of registered visitors, or 1% of visitors.
- andyferris 2y agoI remember originally registering in order to upvote, not to comment or submit. I'm not sure how common that is but it is a much less scary way to begin to contribute.
- sejje 2y agoYou can't vote until you have 500 karma
- MrDOS 2y agoYou can't downvote until you have 500 karma. You can upvote posts and comments right out of the gate, AFAIK.
- mediumsmart 2y agoconfirmed - I just crossed the 500 line and the downvote triangle appeared below the upvote triangle
- dang 2y agoIIRC it was the latter.
- econ 2y agoI'm curious what percentage responds to replies to their comments. I think it is quite high here.
