dzot, the Hacker News website seems to be doing fine. (We may adopt some of their hacks regarding karma thresholds.)

Caledonian, I look forward to being able to downvote your comments instead of deleting them.

Google actually hates duplicate content, so we have to make promoted posts vanish from LW and reappear on OB - keeping all comments of course, and the same integration of tags/sequences/categories. But if we don't get good posts from the readership, we (Robin/Eliezer/Nick) may split off OB again. But it's not like we have to promote anything we don't like, and it doesn't seem likely that adding a voting system will result in *worse* comments here.
