One of the bad aspects of this system is that deleted comments are deleted even from your own profile.    I fully admit to being "uncivil" on occasion but have had many civil comments deleted today simply because they criticized (fairly) the CPC.     Yet, I would not be able to post text because the comments are gone.

I may be one of the minority of posters who actually prefers the new system vs the old - but it still needs some major tweaking.     On the good side - it doesn't seem to hang as much as the old system, and you can easily see responses to your own posts.   And getting rid of the thumbs is absolutely no loss as they were constantly manipulated.
