“My” Comments recent feature
-
This is about the relatively new feature, receiving responses to comments we make and other people’s comments. I don’t understand how it works. Different ones appear and disappear all the time, and not necessarily in chronological order; in fact I can’t see the rhyme or reason of why some appear and others don’t. Whatever it is, I don’t want to have to go thru these threads over and over, particularly long posts by other people about stuff I’m no longer interested in, if I ever was. I tend to make short quickie comments, and now I’m subjected to long ongoing debates among people, including insults. It’s toxic. Is there any way I can delete what I don’t want?

I just simply never look at that page. Your most recent comments on WP.com blogs always appear on the dashboard front page anyway.
-
you could always make more comments in wp.com to push away those comment threads you don’t want to be updated of anymore i guess..

Raincoaster, I look at the page to see the replies to my posts, some of which I AM interested in. By “appear on the dashboard” I guess you mean the list, which we always had? I guess I’ll look there then.
Sulz, I get the feeling you are speaking tongue-in-cheek…or in those great pastel colored lips!
-
no cheek meant in my post. =) that’s really the only way i know how to get rid of old comment threads in ‘my comments’ in dashboard.
wish my lips look as good as this, lol.

I thought you were being funny, encouraging more commenting. But seriously–as I said, they show up with little rhyme or reason as to order. The system does not seem to be chronological.
-
it is chronological; they update according to the time of the latest comment. so if you commented on one post 3 years ago and a spammer leaves a spam comment, you’ll get to read it first thing in your dashboard, heh.
commenting is good, though. that’s why i love wordpress.com; there is a real community spirit here.
