This is true of every blog I've ever seen. Posts are high quality, because you wouldn't be reading the blog otherwise, but anyone can pop in to add their two cents. General discussion forums don't show this effect, because anyone can post at top level.
I've never seen a blog that supported downvotes or karma ratings. If such exist, do they get better comments?
Sorry, I intended to mean that the comments are dramatically worse than the posts. But then again this might be true of most blogs. However, it's not true of the blogs I wish and find useful to visit.
This a blog that supports up/downvotes with karma in which comments are not dramatically worse than the post, and sometimes even better.
By a blog I mean something where the posts are written by one person. LW is what I am calling a discussion forum: anyone (subject to a minimal karma requirement) can post at top level.
