Well - so far - after one day as a “genius” - I would have to say that most of what Dypak said is true. I certainly have no intention of ever actually paying to be a Genius - now that I have had a free sample. One thing that I did take advantage of was the opportunity to start new “My Comic Pages.” I started one page for Gasoline Alley, one page for Brenda Starr, etc. I put just ONE comic in each of those “comic pages.” The comics which I started a new “my comic page” for were the comics where I am most likely to find some well-thought-out and usually fairly polite comments. The reason I did that is that I often check back several times during the day to read the rest of the comments. So when I want to check on just the comments on just those pages, I just go to the home page and check out the comments for those single page “my comics pages.” But one of the comments which I made during the Go comics Survey was that, for the most part, I am not all that impressed by the comments feature. Primarily because, for a growing majority of comics, far too many of the comments are mean-spirited and frequently end up being nothing more than personal attacks on comments made by other posters. I visit a number of comics pages on OTHER sites which will put all your favorite comics out on one page so they are easier to read - have extensive archives which are free to all visitors - but do NOT offer the option of making a comment. I actually PREFER visiting those web sites and usually visit them BEFORE I visit Go Comics There are now a LOT of comics which I first discovered at Go Comics which I actually read first on the other Web Sites because the many mean-spirited comments which tend to turn up in regard to a lot of the other comics on the Go Comics Site just tend to kill my enjoyment of that particular cartoon. So even the comments feature is not anything which I would be willing to pay anyone to have. If the comments were NOT offered to free-loaders - for the most part - I would NOT miss the comments. Except for comments for Gasoline Alley.
