I hate to sound complimentary, but... I get the impression that the comments on LW are substantially higher-quality than the comments on OB.

And that the comments on LW come from a smaller group of core readers as well, which is to some extent unfortunate.

I wonder if it's the karma system or the registration requirement that does it?

Maybe the community has just gotten smarter.

I know I now disagree with someone of the statements/challenges I've posted on OB.

It shouldn't be too shocking that high quality posts were actually educational.
