I know that comments have been buggy lately. But I seems, as of today, they have completely removed our ability to comment on any article.

Recently, they removed certain words(Xbone) and foul language. Now they have removed the comment section all together.

What is the point in even using this site?, If all they are doing is protecting bad games from negative or any kind of comment.

UPDATE! It seems the comment section is back. Strange?

The comments section is showing for me. When did you first notice its absence?

There's a bug with the provider we use for comments that occasionally prevents the comment section from showing on some content. We'll get a fix out soon. Sorry for the trouble.

Oh... for a moment there I thought you'd finally dumped that PoS.

Oh well. :|

Is there any chance you'll ditch livefyre for disqus?

@Garm31: I believe this is the third day that I cannot access the comments section on any article whatsoever - it's strange because I can clearly see the icon that shows comments have been made - they're just not showing under the article like they normally do.

Is this a recent change that I'm not aware of or is there some setting somewhere that allows me to 'enable' comments?

@Celsius765: We're ditching it for GiantBomb's commenting system.

@GameSpot: Does it work anything like disqus or will I have to refresh if I wanna see new comments on articles
