    When the comment chain goes on long enough, there is no more audience.

      Depends. If it’s a subject I feel strongly about I’ll go down the whole damn chain upvoting and downvoting as applicable.

        Addendum: when a comment chain goes on long enough in both length and time since the original post, there is no more audience.

          Nah. It almost always devolves into one person making an effort while the other’s just being an ass.
