Honestly I read the post you're referring to and I eye rolled a bit. It seemed a bit over the top and part of why people feel pressure to post "high-caliber" (barf) stuff on DW.

I agree with the comment above re: different journals cultivating different moods and expectations for how their comment sections work. That's part of why I'm enjoying it- my blog is *my* space, and I have control over my content and comment sections, unlike Tumblr where people could reblog my stuff and add on whatever they liked, whether it made sense or not (or at times, even when it was problematic and made me uncomfortable).
