Comments disabled at bt.etree?

I just tried to post a comment on a torrent at bt.etree and couldn't do it, and then I saw the message on the homepage that said "Comments have been disabled due to a few bad apples using them to harass others. (you know who you are and should be ashamed) --phrog." Does anyone know what happened? I'd seen some spammers commenting on torrents but that happens everywhere and banning the "bad apples" seems like a more rational solution than banning everyone from commenting, so is there any story behind this?

Re: Comments disabled at bt.etree?

Nope it was a pissing contest between two tapers and an unauthorized remaster. Here's the announce post minus the comments:

Exactly right.
Nothing out of the ordinary.
Two a-holes posting inappropriate comments.
Just like here in the TD if someone posts anything contrary to the lefties agenda.

I've been a member of etree since it was an email list so I'm pretty sure "agendas" aren't an issue.

It is helpful if you read all the words.
My "agendas" comment had nothing to do with etree.

well, we're not pirate bay. we're just collectors who got some bad trades in the old days, skipping CDRs, stuff like that and had enough of it. long-term its the best way.
