I hate, hate, HATE the new comment system. I can't say enough how much I hate it. I've tried working with it but can not figure out what the heck it is doing. Please put back the filtering by comment score or at least give me an option to shutoff this ungodly creation you have added to an otherwise wonderful system. Again I can't say how much I hate the new system. I think you should get that by now. Please yank out this full/abbreviate/hidden thing. BTW, if you don't take my word for it then put up a poll. I'm sure I am not the only one.

To follow-up on this, I only see this new feature with Firefox 2.0.0.7 on Linux (and not on Windows XP..with the limited web browsers I have tested with. Using the User Agent Switcher plugin (on linux) and switching to a pseudo internet explorer 6.0 windows xp user agent (actually running on linux) disables the full/abbrev/hidden thing and gives me the filtering by score.
