I'm relaxed, I'm merely articulating my point in a forceful manner. Can I force the authors to be more respectful to the audience base? Of course not. But if nothing is said when issues arise then how will those issues ever be addressed? If a wheel doesn't squeak it doesn't get grease.

I'm aware of it's prolonged existence, my problem here I guess is as I stated. As a long time commenter on the site, Kotaku has been relatively even handed with removing posts. Usually only those that are truly vulgar or hateful. The replies removed were mundane critiques. It was done in a "I don't like that, so I'm

None of this fits with the comments removed. I'm aware of ToS's and what kind of "poster entitlement" arises on the Gawker Media sites. The issue here isn't that random WTF BRO DUDE posts were removed. Constructive critique posts were removed that simply weren't flattering to the cosplay in the article.

Very likely it wasn't my post, it was the thread itself which was giving critique on the cosplay. Mentioning that the cut of the underarm armor isn't an area that should be focused on, the green slime from the rain drainage, the door handle, or that her legs/ass aren't the ideal parts of her body in this cosplay to be

""The site is here to have people comment on articles?" Yes. That's why the site generates views on articles. The comment section is how you have people view an article and continue to come back to it thereby loading ads over and over. What did you think a blog that has almost no other feature other than a comment

Really, what exactly is the time and place? When comments aren't being deleted? When the author isn't active in the thread reading comments?

Even when I've sent emails providing tips or heads up on articles it's taken days to get a response. Do you really think an email about how an author is deleting comments in a

The site is here to have people comment on articles. Yet more often than not the authors are taking it upon themselves to censor what makes it into the comment pool. It's absolutely rampant over on Gawker's main page, but I have to admit that this is the first time I've experienced it here.

As a prior "star" commenter

Nice, posts are already being deleted huh? Fucking cowards.

Instead of following the guidelines that Totilo stated about how authors are supposed to interact with the commentors you just delete posts you don't like. Fuck you Luke.

I would imagine that if I were having professional pictures taken; or at least pictures by a photographer who's going to add his signature to them, that I'd still cover it up regardless of it's contextual significance at a Con.

It's terribly unflattering as well. While tacky to show the tattoo, it's not the tattoo itself in the shots that make them unflattering. The cut of the top under her arms and her legs/ass are just not features I'd feature. My distaste for the outfit could be drastically changed if she were wearing more, not less. The

I appreciate the feedback, I'll check em out the next time steam has a sale.

I loved the original point and click adventure Sam and Max games back in the late 90's. I haven't tried the new TTG versions, are they true to the original?

Agreed, I used 24 grams as an avg as we're on a gaming site and I don't expect the vast majority of people who came across the post to have anywhere near a proper dietary plan. Or for that matter the proper build to support eating in the way we described.

You know, when you state something such as "Wrong" when addressing a matter that is historically so nebulous you're really going out of your way to look silly. For as many studies that I've read in these last two years that are against multiple meals a day, I've read as many or more that are for it. Pre-loading on

The idea is to consume my body weight in protein a day. It's not something I plan to do for a long period of time, but I'm looking to build a good bit of lean muscle mass. I'm not one of those silly "bulk because you can" mentalities as I'm more built for running or swimming.

Yep, anything over 24 grams in a single sitting is usually a waste. Wait 2-3 hours to consume more =)

"What else would you do with a tank, really?"

After you finish your macho ostrich egg and bacon cheese burger, you drive your tank to the closest fast food place because you forgot shakes.

I actually owned an entire continent in that game when it launched. On the Chaos server I was Astrix of Legion VII Felix. We held the entire NE snow continent for quite a while, but RL got in the way of me being available as much as that game required.

Compared to AC, it was player friendly =)

I completely remember the run from Halas to Kelethin at level 10, having to go through the beholder gorge and dealing with the giants in karanos to get there. But when all said and done (and many corpse runs later) I was able to sell my polar bear hide cloaks for 10g a pop.
