Yep, they're borked. The comments. I just thought no comments meant no love but it's actually a "known bug" with Movabletype rather than gut-wrenching abandonment by my lovely commenters. Trouble is, I'm not brainy enough to fix it. I read the forums and applied the code where they said to and.. made it worse.
Pox.
Please send any comments to jamjar at the jamjar dot com cos frankly, I miss them/you.
