Not actually approaching a discussion collaboratively.
Not being up-to-speed enough to contribute to a discussion.
Yeah, these are two of the things that have been turning me off from trying to keep up with comments the most. I don’t really have any ideas short of incredibly aggressive moderation under a much higher bar for comments and users than has been set so far.
Worth noting that we currently have a lot of discussion going on, and the more we have, the more inclined I am to support moderation raising its standards for what is acceptable, and getting more aggressive. A shift from ‘not generating discussion’ to ‘generating lots of discussion some of which may be bad’ changes the situation a lot.
