      You can’t abuse it nearly as much as I wanted to abuse it. It’s a good thing WordPress wasn’t something I could throw across the room because I would have. Many times.

      This made it sound like auto-refresh to me.

      The biggest change is the cache plugin we’re using. For all non-registered users a static page will be served. If you follow the comments as a non-registered user the comments won’t refresh for about 60 minutes. If you want to follow the comments, go ahead and register and that won’t be an issue. Most of the visitors on the site aren’t registered and most don’t follow the comments so this makes a huge difference on the requests made to the server.

      I thought it read if you register = auto-refresh (at some frequency), if you don’t register you auto-refresh ever 60 minutes.

      It doesn’t mean that if you sit on the page new comments will appear, it just means that when you reload the page you’ll see new comments right away only if you’re registered. If you are unregistered the comments feed that you get when you load the page only updates every 60 minutes. At least that’s how I read it.

      It doesn’t auto-refresh. It’s like 99.9% of blog’s comments. Enter a comment, it refreshes the page. Want to see new comments? Refresh the page.
