Hey. You finally showed up! Or at least this is the first time I’m seeing you. And of course you’re grey also. Did the merging not work for you either? Or did you even bother trying?

I appreciate it, but it has to be a follow from one of the authors on the site. The merging thing didn’t work out for me. Hopefully they’ll start venturing into the comments and bringing us out soon.

Good thing we don’t have to worry about being able to sort the comments or deal with that pesky live updating.

Chris Evans as Della Street!

I was just looking at the numbers for all the articles. 9 hours later on this and there’s still only 16. Very depressing

“Could you please, uh.... if you could not kill me, that would be awesome.”

I don’t want my account linked back to Disqus after dealing with that yesterday. It’s just not a big deal to me. Can I just get followed so I can get back out of the greys and talk with everyone again please?

Someone followed starred my comment. That’s why it wasn’t grey. The rest still are.

Great job as usual, Will! You’re the one shining spot in this whole debacle. I’m guessing you won’t see this though, as the “merging” didn’t work right for many of us, and nobody seems to be coming to rescue those of us languishing in the greys.

YOU’RE HERE!!!

I think that’s only because of you. Since you’re followed now, then anyone in the greys you reply to or star will come out of the grey. BUT only those comments.... not their entire history or future comments.

.

So that merging thing didn’t work out so well for a lot of us, did it? How long do we get to languish in the greys?

Oh nice. Maybe they’re working their way through all the comments now. It should work for the AV Club and the sub blogs within it.

Thanks :) But no, the follow only ungreys people if it comes from someone who’s has author status on whichever kinja blog you’re on.

Not unless it’s from the authors of whichever kinja blog you happen to be on.

Same. Plus it’s actually wiped some of our pre-existing kinja accounts out. And apparently no one’s bothering to look in the greys to follow anybody.

It only brings the one comment out of the greys. Unless you star a comment further down a grey thread which will bring out the comment(s) in the conversation above as well. Only way out of the greys entirely is if you get followed by an author or the blog itself.

Yup. Wiped my account as well.

So that didn’t work at all. In fact it wiped the kinja account I was using, and wouldn’t accept the password for the burner I had just copy/pasted from the new one the system gave me. I don’t need my Disqus account linked anyway. Can I just get this account followed so I can be out of the grays? Thanks.
