Ryan >> I should point out that fading the text is *not* the same as blocking it.

What is the goal behind fading comments? If users already have the ability to block down voted comments based on their personal threshhold, why is this extra step necessary?

It would seem the only benefit this fading feature adds, is to allow the majority to make it harder for people to read unpopular comments. Do you think it's a good idea to allow the majority to make comments they don't agree with harder to read for people who don't share this opinion? If so, why is this?

Please explain what this feature adds to the current system of threshold viewing?
