 * There needs to be a way to filter out pingbacks and trackbacks! No one wants 
   to see these, they look unprofessional and crowd out the actual comments.
 * Switching to another recent comments plugin, hope this one will get an update
   to address this or post a response with a fix because the scroll option is awesome.
