The new "this comment is too short to reply to" thingy makes it impossible to report trolls.

Is anyone else having trouble with Jez and Gawker using Google Chrome? It freezes for the first two minutes and I have to hit wait twice before I'm able to even hover over anything :( I use a Mac and have never had trouble with these sites before about a week or two ago. Help!

What's going on with the sidebar? In both Firefox 6 and Chrome on both Windows Server 2003 and Mac OS X. It looks OK when I initially come to the site but as soon as I click on any of the sidebar links, it shrinks to about 1/10th of the initial height, making it impossible to read through the headlines. #redesign
Hi! Some folks are not seeing the "start a new thread" link on posts on the main page. :( They can only reply! #redesign
Mods! Anyone!? MoGlo? Chritter?!? Anyone?

I broke Jezebel earlier. I need help un breaking it. I tried editing the comment before it was too late, but it kept redirecting me to YouTube. I have the comment and all the associated info, but have no idea how to actually delete the comment without triggering the whole YouTube redirect.

I'm sorry! Please don't banish me!

I realize some of the tags are wrong, just want to get some mod's attention in the morning!

oh, and one more thing, I'd love to see the return of the actual @username in comments. I really like the indicating threads by making it gray thing, but sometimes people respond to different peopel within a thread, and it's hard to follow without the @ indication. #redesign
Hi guys,
Thanks for all the fixes (HEARTS) so far. a few issues:
1. Groupthink responses are not threading when the url is blog.jezebel.com/groupthink/forum only when it doesn't have the blog part of the url
2. clicking on a notification is still not consistently directing me to the comment.
3. In my profile, sometimes I see the name of the person who responded to me and sometimes the avatar is blank and it just says @writtenpyramids.
4. Old notifcations randomly show up again after I have cleared them (it would also be great if clearing the notifications would apply across Gawker sites, so that when I clear them on Jez, I don't think I have new responses when I go to Gizmodo, but that's way low on my list of concerns) #redesign
Some suggestions...not sure they go here or somewhere else...or if you even read them.

#1. Commenting on mobile devices. I would love to comment more on stories, but I refuse to look at the monstrosity that is the redesign. I use my iPad or phone to read the stories.

#2. Comments on mobile devices. I want to see all the comments on some stories, not just the ones gawker has decided are the best. You can't enable this option on mobile devices.

#3. Mobile devices. I have heard you are making an iPad version or something. If it is like the redesign for regular browsers with the horrible layout and all the problems, I'm done reading. The mobile site is the only way I'm even able to read some of the stories.

#4. Time loading for mobile devices. Time after time, my phone times out trying to load the front page. At first, I passed it off as my crappy phone, but then I noticed it only happened on gawker sites...so whatever the problem is, FIX it! I can't spend all my time hiding in the bathroom at work waiting for your page to load!

#5. Story quality. I know, this isn't so much redesign as editor problems. Seriously...the quality of the stories and editing has gone dramatically downhill after the redesign. I don't know if its because you're now troubleshooting site problems or with the decrease in readership you just don't care. Either way, it's gotten bad (I notice it, and I am, by far, not a grammar nerd)

#6 Story tags. I'm not sure what you call them, but the nifty words in red (pink?) next to the stories in the new view that tell you what they are (like Snap Judgment, Fashion, Midweek Madness, etc) are way cool. Can we have something similar like that in the mobile version? It helps me know if I should bother opening the story or if its just going to take forever to load and then not show me the picture.

#7. When you post a video (or other things sometimes) on the Saturday Night Social (and other stories) it doesn't show up at all on my iPad. I'm not sure if this is because its a flash video or if its another problem...but if its another problem, can we fix it for the mobile versions?

Whew! I'm done. Sorry its so long, these things have been building up since I can't comment the way I normally view the stories.

The comment reply not working sucks! I'm totally confused by one response and I can't figure out what comment they're replying to. Ugh. #redesign
Comment replies go to dead page. #redesign
When I'm on blogview, the scrolly side bar with all the stories refuses to open the links as tabs. Super frustrating. #redesign
Comments links aren't working. They go to the same link WrittenPyramid wrote. #redesign

New notification problem: I'm getting a page that doesn't load anything when I click on the link in notifications (can someone reply to this so I can see if it was a one-time glitch) but I can still see the reply on my profile page, so I know it's there. #redesign
Sometimes I can't see my picture, sometimes I can't see my username. Any reason, or just a glitch? #redesign

The comments aren't working for me. I have 3 messages waiting but can only view them in my profile and cannot click the link to get back to the thread on the original story. I can't respond in groupthink either. I'm on firefox 3. something. #redesign
my notifications keep popping up even when I have cleared the notifications. It gives me the false hope that I got responses when I didn't! How do I stop that?
#redesign
I'm not sure if this is 100% the right place to ask this, but it seemed to be the closest. Is tweet beat gone now? I miss it. #redesign
In my view, right now, the horrible right frame thingy is gone - in fact it looks like old jez. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! #redesign
Why am I having issues trying to upload my (first) avatar image? It's a 20 KB gif image... #redesign
Thank you thank you thank you for letting me now be able to comment form my iPad...but the site still is really slow and bulky. Babysteps, I suppose. #redesign
