Responses
Like Buzzfeed, Topix and Digg, general reactions like LOL, OMG, WTF, EWW and what have you can become buttonized reactions, and can also accompany voting systems and rating systems. Comments which only or primarily contain short responses should be reprocessed as "reactions" rather than true contributions to a comment section, and should be selectively segregated from the comment section as well. Such an approach would help the quality of future commentary on YouTube and other sites which also make use of user ratings systems.
