 * After spending considerable time and effort with this plugin I have determined
   that the plugin has to far to many bugs at this stage to use it in a blog with
   high user traffic.
 * The IntenseDebate system will fail often. Many of my users complained that their
   comments were not posted in real time (we dont moderate comments). Several comments
   never showed up at all. Many of the users thinking they made an error duplicated
   their comments.
 * I attempted to use the IntenseDebate support forum, which is filled with similair
   and unresolved bugs.
 * Be prepared for lots of user complaints if you wish to use this plugin.

 * Thanks for sharing. I checked the other comments, and 10 out of 10 (including
   above comment) so far are all negative.
 * I begin to wonder: What are WordPress.org’s criteria in considering a plugin 
   to be flagged for inclusion in the Featured Plugins page?

 * romycc, you’ll find that IntenseDebate is made by Automattic, the very same people
   who run this here website and blogging platform project.
 * It’s a shame they felt compelled to release a malfunctioning product before it
   was ready.
