The new Wall Street Journal comment format eliminates user ratings, forcing equality and detracting from usability.
Pro-white and anti-immigration comments always received disproportionate numbers of likes, and the full-time Neocon and left-wing enforcers were flagged with disproportionate numbers of dislikes.
The number of comments per article has fallen, in many cases to zero, and I've seen numerous comments complaining about the new format.
[Email the WSJ to complain about this.]
