Nov 29, 2013 at 16:59 comment added Shog9 Mod Not suggesting anyone stop cleaning stuff up, @gnat - just saying that if we're going to build a big shiny new cleanup system, it'd be nice to have one that didn't demand more effort than the existing one. And we are. Eventually.
Nov 29, 2013 at 16:57 comment added gnat @Shog9 if you can somehow make this greatanswertotallyagree garbage go away / become hidden without my involvement, I would be more than happy to abstain. As long as it's not yet there though, I will probably have to stick with cumbersome but working methods of cleaning site content
Nov 29, 2013 at 16:38 comment added Shog9 Mod I don't think noisy comments don't matter, @gnat - but I think that the harm they do is most evident in aggregate. Giving folks another Augean Stables to clean when we could so easily redirect the river ourselves just seems like a waste.
Nov 29, 2013 at 16:35 comment added gnat "few noisy comments" -- I used to think that way, comments don't matter much and so on. Upon a closer look at these I have changed my mind
Nov 29, 2013 at 16:33 comment added Shog9 Mod There are almost always areas where you can burn time and privilege, if you look around. IMHO, just about any edit is a better use of time than reviewing obsolete comments - particularly if the edit obsoletes those comments.
Nov 29, 2013 at 15:58 comment added Undo Thanks! I agree with just about everything there, except for the part about 'highly-active, highly-privileged users must spend time dealing with them.' As a decently privileged user on Meta and 4k on another beta site, there often isn't really anything to use those high privileges on, and I would gladly review a bunch of comments if it meant they go away. I'm sure that's different on SO(FU?), but it's just my two cents.
