| Oh no I wanted to comment on one of my favorite actresses Alice Hirose's page... She got a nice voice acting role in the movie bubble.. She is such a great comedian and she can pull off those funny anime faces in live actions.. |
 |
| Uh... Not really like this decision but could see it coming. Hope there's solution to this. Now that I think about it. Why not try implement RSS feed for every profile comment? That way everyone (especially mods) can see what's being post in every profile without need to check individually. |
 |
| This update sucks dong |
| Oh no, now people won't be able to say the spicy funny thing in relation to such popular Japanese figures, like Hitler and Anne Frank. |

| So all of us need to suffer just because you guys don't have the manpower to maintain moderation ? |

Now the company page edits I really appreciate, cause there has been a bunch of companies that I added to the DB but they don't have a picture.  best mal suggestion ever - https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=2047945 |

| Damn, I'll miss seeing @tsubasalover's comments. Thanks for all the news you've shared with us |

| Noooo! Now I can't see people talking about underrated mangaka and voice actors! I want them back! |

| any suggestions? well you guys said you will have "Character database" moderators soon last year here: (timestamp: 12:09) why not announcing that the comments of people can't be moderated with the current staff and you need help and add some "People Database" moderators sooner? Or even now it's not too late just do St0rmblade said: this and the comments are closed until you will have the staff you want, then open them again and even if that's too hard, something is better than nothing, first apply the staff for these comments and then open the comments for people from new, at least the news and informative comments gets back that you can't easily get them from clubs and who bothers to check thousands of clubs but comments are just under people's main pageAlternatively you could've closed the comments *without* deleting the previous ones, leaving them for archival purposes. Just no addition of new ones. |
| rip people comments, through gureishi yako's page i found out they got sick and thats the whole reason somali got axed F. |

| Linking clubs to People entries seems like a good idea, as long as the update doesn't take 3 years to get implemented. |
| DISAPOOIIINTEEED!!! |
 |
| I think it makes some sense. Because people often mistakenly thought that these were official personal pages or just being a shitposter. |
 |
| I think it is dumb to remove the comments when you can find hentai on this site but whatever |
 _______I like rocks__  |
| Now if they'd only get more anime & manga database mods. |
 |
| People comments were one of my favourite features ๐ฟ |
 you're so cute when you're frustrated, dear |

Shitposting is like a quarter of the purpose of this website, though. Depends on a person. For me personally, this is annoying, especially when the author does not understand that I do not find it interesting. |
|
| I wonder how many of these rule-breaking comments were found on pages that were asking for it like Hitler, Marx, mangaka of Samurai X, etc. They could have locked those pages. |
| Even the joke comments were an appreciation for the person 99% of the time. I don't see how it severely impacted anything unless there was a controversial period. To remove every single comment on the database just because of a few silly people seems farfetched. |
 |
| the saddest news angelouchiha could ever receive in his entire career for greeting a happy birthday on every seiyuu in the database |
| I'm not happy with the change but I can understand the reason as well. Hoping for a better alternative. Please... something similar to the older version but with more positives and fewer negatives. |
 |
| Guess I can finally put in edits for some small studios. |
 |
| Too many words to say: "we had enough of the comments on Adolf Hitler's page." You could have just closed this page and the ones of many other "controversial"—oh, by the way, could you please fix the "inclusive" (i.e. crypto-conspiracist if not vague) biography of this guy? He is not just "commonly associated with [...] the Holocaust," but the main responsible of the Shoah—figures that should not even be here. After all, the previous design change of favourite lists on profiles was just made to hide all those 11,000 moustached faces. I had never seen any serious abuses on the pages of voice actors. P.S. I will miss the comments on Proust's page! Something like: "This is the face the greatest writer of the 20th century would make." Some people sometimes said "second greatest writer," but I assume that they were joking. |
Oh hey that's me! |
| Removing people comment sections is a pretty disappointing change. Not only where pretty amusing to look at, but they were also informative. Also, rip to the (ridiculously long) "๐" chain under Nujabes' page |
| holy shit mods even removed my reply on this thread lmao how sad can you be I literally just said "truly 1984" as a joke reply to the comment about Kano's page. What rules did I break lol? It's been like this the entire year with a lot of my posts just how many ppl's harmless comments are you removing? you guys clearly have enough nerds to pull triggers here, how can you not have enough for people pages? this is bullshit |

| Not a fan of all the recent changes, but this one really shoots mal in the foot Majority of the time the comments are civil on those pages, and if anything they were handy with helping to find out other projects the seiyuus do If anything, as some have said so far, controversial people should go (i.e. Hitler) instead |

| I think this is a really important update. As someone who often reported people's comments on person's comments(most of the time from bots) I can actually see what the problem is. 90% of the people who complain here in this thread rarely went to person's page or they went to famous people where everyone could see if someone broken the rules. BUT the problem was with person's pages that people are not very interested to visit such as doujinshi authors and light novel or manga author that weren't popular. People think that comments that have broken rules believe that are only hate comments but no, there were countless comments sharing links of illegal gambling sites, porn dating sites, I have seen some bots sharing emails (possible attempt to groom). And the even bigger problem is that there many people who aren't as careful like me to not click on sites and enter their personal information and get their IP stolen or their life credit card information etc. It's not like Mal admins don't want to find an alternative option for the comments so I don't know why people act like this but until then I think they should remain closed. |

| Pretty unlikable move, could’ve found other ways to fight this problem |
| Don'ty like this change regarding the People comment section. You could always advert hiring new moderators you know. But noo, MAL being MAL as usual. One step forward, two steps back. Rather be lazy and opt for the full blown cencorship dicatorship just because a few losers that have nothing better to do. |

| Wtf? I just noticed the comment section under people is no more. Things like that is why I use MAL and nothing else coz it has lively forums and comment section. Just coz you couldn't moderate some stupid comments, you decided to ban the entire section ? I don't even open the club forums (and honestly don't even know how it works). You should bring the comments back |
 |
| Hmm well now there's one place less to hide clues during MAL Easter Hunt |
 |
| Now I won't be able to comment "๐" in Nujabes page :-(((( |
 |
| Another stupid decision... |

| Out of sight out of mind. Not like rule breakers get punished anyway. |
 |
| lest build uprising rebellious alliance this is the resistance @genocyber |
| I think this change goes too far. Comments under people were casual and didn't require a lot of commitment. Having to join a club seems counterintuitive. I liked seeing the random discussions under a person's page and that style of discussion will die in a club format. |
