How has disqus figured out comment moderation? As far as I know, they don't make a big effort to create great comment communities. Do you have any extra details?

HN has far better comments than any disqus comment feed, on average, in my opinion.

It's that bad comments sink down but the amount of downvoting is not shown, so downvoting behavior is not reinforced.

HN used to have far better comments, now it feels like a battlefield.
