| Nov 18, 2016 at 18:38 | comment | added | Monica Cellio Mod | Thanks @JonEricson. We don't want to lose the comment push-back, but maybe we should look at raising it. This calls for a separate discussion, thanks. | |
| Nov 18, 2016 at 17:46 | comment | added | Jon Ericson Staff | We are abusing the old Community Wiki conversion misfeature. On most sites, it kicks in at 15 answers, but I adjusted the number down to 2 here. The CW conversion no longer happens, but the comment hiding and this popup are side-effects that still occur. I could easily raise it to 3 or 4, which would be retroactive. Removing the popup altogether is also possible, but we'd need to think about it in the context of other sites where the level is more reasonable for the popup. Maybe a new meta question is in order? | |

| Sep 12, 2014 at 14:12 | comment | added | Monica Cellio Mod | Thanks @Jaydles. When I saw it I wondered if there's a "very busy page" state for which we do both -- deter more answers and collapse comments -- and if we'd tapped into that in changing the comment limit. There are other question states that affect page behavior (protected, locked, closed, deleted), so it kind of makes sense. Now I'm curious: did I correctly guess the design? | |
