Just a quick check-in to see how the new community system was going for you. We realize that this is a change, creates an impediment to commenting (initially), and has been buggy, but we hope that it signals an improvement in your eyes....
New Comment System Check-In
Please remember that we expect to be teasing out bugs throughout this week so keep emailing us if something isn't working at support (at) apartmenttherapy . com.
Once we get this to work, the next steps go like this:
1. remove security codes from Surveys for registered users
2. create internal emailing between readers
3. create "bookmarking" of favorite posts so that they show popularity on front page and collect to your personal page
4. create reader "posting" so that posts created on personal pages can be pulled to the front page.
Of course, there's more than that, but this is where were going next. Right now it'd be great to know what you think about the comment function and personal pages in general.

I think the new system is great and look forward to being able to "bookmark" pages and look at other readers' profiles. The only problem I've run into is with a URL in my comment, and am not sure whether that bug has been fixed yet?

If you live in Canada, you can't add your city.
Also, why are there two links to everyone's profile in every comment? The username link and the "view so-and-so's profile" link go to the same place.

may I suggest that people who post the first comment on a thread post two, so that the first one shows up on the index page?

Just checking to see if the comment system works for me so I can answer the survey.

many people did not realize that the link on the user's name was a link to their profile, so we added the addition text to help people find their way.
