dagComment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)
That would be cool. Maybe the code faeries will put that in tonight. ;-)
joedirtomg.. I read this wrong. I thought it was a new feature. I've been running around using it.
oohahhSorry to get your hopes up, joedirt. After reading through some blog posts, it sounds like James and dag have had the same thought in the past, so maybe we don't have too long to wait. :-D
Krupothat's a very clever move.
recommend adding in the comments too...
joedirtTwo technical issues, what if you merge with a discarded post (have to find them with google), do they add to the discarded votes? and maybe then escape the queue? Could be abused by resubmitters. (is this better than getting the same old stuff submitted over and over and never getting the votes??)
