Seriously. I love how many people are holding conversations over fragments when the PM system is actually much better suited for that. Well, unless you want to randomly have other people look at your conversation, which I can understand to an extent. But… it’s really not designed for that!

Might as well just implement wall posts, really, and make fragments that are actually fragments post to the user’s own wall.

To add onto the suggestion, though, as-is, PM ping notices could quote the fragment and then give the reply link, as well.

Oh, so this is what David’s blog was about.

You don’t make a thread about something and blog about the results, be consistent D:

Exactly. But I prefer the term “efficiency” over “laziness”.

Potatoes… -lesigh- Starch must be gettin’ in da veggies’ head. :/

There don’t have to be actual limits. People limit themselves.

Rarely are there more than 20 comments that are actually relevant to the blog. After the 3rd or 4th page, in most cases, it just becomes aimless conversation. Which can be had anywhere.

Besides, even if there are 300 comments on a blog, it won’t kill a browser to load all of them on one page. It might take a long time, sure, but those cases would be rare anyway.

I think the browsing-efficiency gains for reasonable amounts of comments is worth it. 🙁

Of note: A lot of legit blogging sites out there don’t have pagination on their comments at all. Empirical proof that they’re not a necessary feature.

Oh, right. I read the PM, and typed half a response, then got distracted and did something else.

Screw it I have homework to do D:

Then don’t make them that long. D:
Elongated discussion is what forums are for.

Edit: Oh, if it wasn’t clear enough, I’m referring to the pagination on blog comments. I think I was a bit ambiguous there.

@Chameleon no rummaging required, it’s a sticky. But I care not ^^
