Changes to comment rewards - earn more points!

Everyone wants more reads, and the best way to get them is by advertising your stories, either in the featured box, or the 'rewarding comments' page via the Stories tab.

Featured box items now automatically always have a reward for people who click them, so they're encouraged to comment more.

Rewards now *double* the amount of points you get for a comment. Our hope is that this will encourage longer, more critical critiques.
Adding a reward is now the same as asking for a critical comment, and adds a note before the comment box saying a critical review is appreciated and rewarded with bonus points.

Our hope is that this will encourage people to comment more, and reward good comments with more points. We're not completely happy with the way points are awarded currently, so expect further tweaks in the direction of MORE points for comments!

Happy short story writing!

    Seems like a good change

    But the new feature thingee might.. lead to people abusing it? (overclicking and stuff? Wah, I might be just overthinking things x.x)
    Nonetheless, the change in the comment reward system might just boost commenting ^_^ Thanks!!!
