So, the Islamic Terrorist Opens Fire on Florida Nightclub; 50 Killed, 53 Wounded story is up over 400 comments and loading slower than hell. We finally managed to find ourselves a limit to comments under the current code. There's a fix going to be coming in the upcoming site update but for now there are two workarounds; take your pick.

  1. Change your comment view mode to Nested or Flat.
  2. Change Comment Limit under Preferences to five to ten.

The latter solution gives you 5-10 root level comments and all their children not 5-10 comments total. It also allows you to keep using the javascript expand/collapse buttons if you were.

    the big times just happen, when Soylentnews just soyled ITSELF? :)

    "Why, i remember when SoylentNews was just this little rinky-dink operation that had to travel uphill bothways in a freaking snow storm, and now it's an old operation, sitting around soyling itself and needing CPR once in a while.... ahhh good times, good times.....

    ..... hey, you kids... get off my damn lawn!"

    Historic event coupled with an ongoing meta narrative.

    Was actually pleased even unpopular views weren't voiced in an polemic way.

    That unfortunately won't last if Soylent gets much bigger.

      When I saw that it was over 200 comments, I decided to stay away from that one.
      Considering how the perception of the shooter has changed in the last 48 hours, I might get a truckload of popcorn and read the whole thing in a few weeks, just as an educative experience.
