Why We built a commenting system from scratch instead of using a third-party

It can't take the traffic yet. Using CSS to look like Kuro5hin aka Scoop based on Slashnet that Slashdot used to use.
Commenting systems can be really tricky when it comes to handling different kind of items (Post comment, comment reply, image comment (polymorphic)) and the notification part can take ages to get right.
On GoNevis we'll soon roll out vote/like on comments as well.
Keep up the good work.
I work with Procasti to try it out and beta test it, and then work with him on programming when I am able to.
It is currently mobile friendly in that the RSS was copied from the old Scoop software that ran Kuro5hin and The DailyKos. By keeping it a simple design it works with most web browsers as well.
The closed source version we are trying to free up is http://kr5ddit.com/ and it uses Kr5ddits to reward users (sort of like karma) and people can vote up or down a post or comment with as many kr5ddits as they want. But there have been DDoS attacks on that site and technical issues from script-kiddies, etc.
