I was a bit confused by that as well.

actually, dios, I think we do need to specifically spell out when comments are deleted, because otherwise, our less intelligent brethren will be paralyzed with confusion without an explicit indicator saying so.

Sorry about that, the comments alleging that it was a self-link were flagged by the person who posted them and there were no other comments in the thread at the time that I removed them which was well before sluglicker posted. I added a note to the thread in case people were confused.

I'm more confused by this thread.

Damn. That picture you posted is foul, quonsar.

Wow, 100 comments in this thread already?

Bugbread, I'm completely shocked and digusted that you'd make a comment calling for the torture and murder of a fellow Mefite.

Holy shit! Rothko is back. Please delete his comments, admins.

Wow Miguel! Thanks for that! You're back, huh? That's great news.

Oh, that's where the snakes are.

How was that confusing? The first post in the thread is a response to dios. Obviously there was a comment from dios which was deleted. Or the poster is on drugs.

I told you I'd shoot! But you didn't believe me! Why didn't you believe me!?

I like it when we play games. I was also a little bit surprised when [insert random heterosexual mefi-lebrity's name here] came out of the closet, but part of me kind of suspected it.

Now ortho is doing it on purpose in the blue. Boo-urns!

I can't believe he actually went ahead and cut his hand off and then posted a direct video to the thread!

Wow! We'll never see that sort of intensity ever again.

You know, quonsar, I'm pretty sure mushrooms don't go there. Pancakes either.

Now that other meta threads are taking up the Friday slack, I honestly do think a [comment deleted] thing would be a nice improvement. It would clarify threads where editing has occured, and it would draw attention to career threadcrappers. Win-win and all that.

Now please cap this thread kthxbye.

I agree that a comment deleted tag above the poster's name would clear up all kinds of confusion and gnashing of teeth.

You clearly didn't pay attention to what EB said just three comments back.

For the record, I bet my right hand against quonsar's lies. Under any amount of torture, he will break first, because he is lying. If I break first, I will surrender my right hand.
