A large proportion of your comments seem very distracting and sort of off-topic for Less Wrong.

Thanks. Can I have an example which is either self-evident as distracting and off-topic or explain why it is?

I looked at a few pages of your comment history to see if I could find a particularly horrible example to base an explanation on (entirelyuseless's link is appropriate), but I was surprised to find that the vast majority of your comments had no karma rather than downvotes.

I'm not sure what you need to do to upgrade or edit out your typical comment. Possibly you could review your upvoted comments to see how they're different from your usual comments.

This is a sufficiently evident example.
