Perhaps increase the maximum amount of comments displayed by default in a thread?

Right now, only about 30 comments show in the megathread without users clicking "show more" button. This unfortunately has the effect of burying a lot of cultural war discussion, aside from the top few posts, at a time when we're trying to encourage more users to jump over to this site with more comment. For reference, the topic has about 180 comments right now, so by default, 5/6ths of the comments are hidden.

Yeah, I think this is a bigger problem than I thought. I'll see what I can put together.
