"@mrender Absolutely! For me, it's about the community we're building. People need a tangible thing to wrap themselves around. To wear a symbol, it means that you agree with the meaning of that symbol. In essence, you believe what we believe. To have access to the shirt means that you are an accepted member of our team, club, frat, church, school, etc.
Thanks for responding, bro!"

"@ambreen11 Thank you for the feedback. I wasn't aware that Disqus was a nofollow, but it makes sense. We want to minimize spammers, not encourage them.
As far as backlinks go, Disqus makes it easy to see where users are posting and engaging. As an example, I just clicked on your username above and found that you've posted 3 additional places and two are directly related to Disqus.
So far, I'm pleased with my decision to roll with Disqus, although, Livefyre was setting up to be a great alternative.
Thanks for responding!"

"@Chevella Thank you very much for the positive feedback. I have thoroughly enjoyed the process thus far.
I'd love to have you join me on this journey much sooner than that. :) Get command over your mind and just do it. The water's fine!"

"Dana, I'm sorry to hear that the app wasn't as nice to you as it was to us in our neighborhood. While we didn't get a great deal of participation, it was fun for those who did use it.
Based off of what I read, it looks like the kids are more aware and plugged in then the adults. This might be a good teaching/marketing tool to improve on those numbers.
Quick question, are you a Lead within your neighborhood? If so, I'm curious to find what others are doing to promote Nextdoor.
Thanks for reading and responding."

"I couldn't agree more, Raymond. Over the past year and a half, I have taken about 10 vacations, which is more than I've taken in my entire life.
Like you, experiencing the local sites, sounds, and tastes, really helped me gain a deeper appreciation for the people and culture. The most memorable being my trip to Mexico (Puerto Nuevo).
I look forward to a trip in December (Bahamas) and then another one in January (Louisville, KY).
Thanks for sharing, sir!"

"@Ryan Biddulph Yeah, Twitter really up'd it's game when they added this feature. Much of the early chatter is a match off between Twitter and Instagram. This little push may help it with its IPO, too.
Thanks for chiming in, sir!"

"So, did you ever find out why this was happening?
I recently installed Livefyre on my site and was pleased with the services, until I wasn't anymore. Similar to your post, random articles didn't have the comment box attached.
Looking online for a solution, I found that this issue happens to others as well. Like you, I've reverted back to Disqus.
Just wanted to get your take on the situation."
