I just found the method to make the comments appear in reverse which I believe is much better for the reader and commenter. Is there a way I can make this a new default? If I use another hub for the layout and it has the comments in reverse, will it automatically include the capsule in that manner also?

Reading through the comments section of hubs often provides a lot more insight to the topic of the hub. Before I comment, I usually read through the comments others have left. When the comment stream is quite long, or if I have a strong reaction to the topic, I comment first, then, go back to read...

Every time I write a Hub, I have to go into the comment module and checkmark "Must approve all comments". I would suggest that Hubpages make this checkmarked and enabled by default. I feel that it is important for all authors to moderate comments in order to prevent spam...
