MOD ANNOUNCEMENT -- OH, LJ

[singularitymods.livejournal.com]

Bonjour, Carolyn ici.

As you may have noticed, either by your plurk timeline exploding, or by, I don't know, attempting to use the site, LJ has put their foot in it again. One hopes they'll roll back the changes, but until then, if we switch to the Minimalism style with custom comments on for the comms, we can get halfway-usable comment pages back. (Example Paradisa thread.)

But we don't want to spring this on anyone, so discuss in comments. Good idea? Glaring flaws? Just not too much discussion, or the threads will collapse and then we'll be in trouble.

ETA: Okay, there we go. Hope this helps at least somewhat.

ETA2: With the help of stoppedhiding and our own Larissa, we've got a style in place that maximizes use of screen real estate and doesn't hurt to look at. It should work for both Paid and Plus accounts.

--OH WHOOPS wow typing first thing in the morning.

Plus account, I mean. The default.

Can you tell me/screencap what you're seeing from Cloud's account? Other Plus users aren't having a problem, so I'm wondering if maybe you have some conflicting settings on your end.

...I was about to, but when I logged in, it looks like you guys fixed the issue yourself (here, at least).

Typically, when on Cloud's or any other default account, I got that horrendous commenting page that only works with luck and refreshing a few times.

Yeah, custom comments just weren't working for some people/communities. As far as I know, no one's really sure why. Glad the new style works for you!
