Ren's monthly suggestion
Yes people, I know it seems like just yesterday that I pissed and moaned in the hope of adding a new feature to the glorious sift, but it has actually been quite some time. So in the interest of keeping up appearances... here goes.
I have noticed a bit of a battle going on, when I am watching a good video while also trying to keep track of the comment battle that is going on below. Sometimes on longer videos, I will even miss large segments of the video because I am more concerned with the comments.
Would it be possible to make the comments section in some kind of scroll box? or atleast make it an option to do it that way? So I don't have to miss any video goodness to catch up on the raging flame war that exists below?

benjeeGood suggestion - I hadn't thought about it before, but I tend to do the same (miss vids due to comment reading). *Quality idea Ren with the optional comment scroll (or possibly an optional CSS fixed position video?)
siftbotGold Star member benjee has awarded ren one published post for this quality Sift Talk contribution.
dagComment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)
That's a good idea, maybe an iFrame for the comments so you could scroll and read them without losing site of the video.
karaidlOoooooor, we can learn a little bit of patience.
renSome of us don't have alot of time to hang out on the sift these days, I try and get a good half hour session in a day with as many videos and comments as i can cram into it.
I look forward to the implementation of this concept.

karaidlTokyo is a fictional city and I'll only believe it when I see it.
But actually I thought about it, and it might be good to implement this idea now before the Sift gets more members and the pages get too long from all the comments. I suppose it would give the site a more polished look.
