This is a fantastic feature! I look forward to making good use of it.

Would it be possible to **not** automatically create a topic until a user chooses to comment on the article? I want to prevent having a ton of topics with no replies (i.e. which were created automatically by visitors who only read articles and not commented on them). I’m specifically thinking of a site with a large number of articles; only a few of them will actually have comments.

What would be the most reasonable way to achieve that? Any thoughts?

Thanks.
