That's not the argument at all. These products give you a false sense of security, giving you an unwarranted impression that you are safe if they have not activated. Just as bad, they can give false positives with alarming frequency, which could lead you to randomly accuse people of trying to drug you on completely…

Ok, Jez, please change the headline to say:

Her observations seem pretty reasonable. She's not saying that it is right for it to be that way; she's just describing the way it is. The juries are doing as they're instructed - only convicting if guilt is proven beyond a reasonable doubt. And when the only witness and accuser is not reliable, because they were…

You mean while she did a nice bit of silent physical comedy for about two minutes? I'm not saying it wasn't sexist, but she wasn't just standing there and posing.

Oh, ugh. That's awful. I actually have a dress somewhat like that - same color, same shapelessness. It looked kinda cool when I saw it online but it just makes me look like a dust bowl refugee/escapee from a women's prison and not in a cool ironic way either

oh man so many good friends being good friends.

I think his tongue is rather firmly in his cheek throughout, certainly about quitting the show because his abs got upstaged. "sort of mentor him" — it's not quite as strong as you characterize it.

He looks delighted by his kid.

He's totally like "Hey did anyone else see how adorable my baby is or was I the only one?"

omg jay-z's face in that last vine. that whole thing is priceless.

Yes, we will do that on the same day that anyone gives a shit about what you think.

There were more than a few of us who just gave up after a few months. There's not much point in taking the time to write an insightful and well-composed comment if no one ever sees it.

Would it be possible to get a clearly-posted explanation of how to get out of the greys at some point? Maybe in the drop-down next to the J logo if possible, or at the bottom if need be (since the Commenting Guidelines linked on the About page haven't been updated since the days of stars). I just feel like we had to…

Agreed. Perhaps could be interesting if there were an automatic starring after X number of upvotes over time, if keeping on top of commenters to move out of greys is difficult for moderators. I have been here for 3 years now, have had many upvotes, but will be in the greys come the change....

When will you be looking at more commenters to approve? I've been a dedicated member of the site (as have many others) but have never been approved despite many upvotes and all the like. I think if you switch back to this system, you have to start actively looking for new commenters to star or you have to REGULARLY…

Or you could buy the cheaper option and inform people via the internet. Unfortunately, too many people just buy without thinking critically about their options. Making them aware they're paying more for no advantage is a nice thing to do.
