Being the prolific muser that I am, I was thinking of the possibility of an option to disable replies less than 100 words or so. This also allows authors who don't want to read 'Great post thanks' type comments won't get them and the ones who like them can. and it can be a way of filtering which posts would apply for a 'most comments' filter without penalizing people who want to have fun and post short quips and photos. If rep of user could factor in to the comments considered for upping post visibility that helps too. of course, this is all very easy for me to say. Those who can't do; think!
