What did not work
- Feature that worked was the karma system allowed users to voluntarily disable the advertisement, made them feel happy even though it did nothing different for the business.
- Feature that did not work: Adding a sponsored poll / slashvertising
- Not being able to uniquely identify Anonymous Cowards (to track them in a thread, something like how 4chans "identified" anon works, I guess)
- slashdot for mobile has always been terrible. i was rarely able to login on my android phone. ~crutchy
