or just disable news comments altogether. i rarely find useful/informative information in the comments just complaining or negative and unnecessary comments.

I’m 18 and even I’m tired of seeing all of these childish comments. I do however like reading comments because It allows a place to talk about the subject matter and get info or explain something to someone else.

You cannot have a ‘utopian’ community, period. You’ll always have childish comments.
Regardless, I don’t think the initial post was even childish—maybe my reply was, idk.
Banning one person for childish comments might help in the short term. In the long term, yet another person will come along.
Believe me, I deal with it everyday at my site.

I made the first comment and I am 25 years old, college graduate and own my own successful design company. Is all that relevant? Not really. Was the comment childish? I didn’t think so. I was just trying to say that iTunes is obviously going to be the top rated without saying it so blandly.
Now if I were to say “iTooonz iZ de FAShheezzie, sCrewW mIcRo$uxor”, then THAT, my friends, would have been childish.

narco.
You alright in my book, some people just dont get a good laugh. I was giggling about it all day…
and yes I agree that iTunes is obviously at the top. It does not take a Savior to even know that…

i think narco’s comment was fine i’m just thinking generally at this site when some weird news item comes out people are like “that’s not news!” and get upset about stupid things and then have to tell others about it. keep childish, irrelevent, unappropriate comments to yourself, but informative/useful/clever(appropriate) comments are always welcomed.

Narco, you rock. That comment was insightful and thought-provoking. Keep on being awesome.

When I hear people whining about sacriliege I ask myself “What Would Krisha Do”?
Answer: probably grin, defeat evil, then die, get reborn, and go chase some maidens.
It’s nice to have a fun-loving saviour.
