Fortunately, we haven't gotten any "Yes man" type discussions on our blog yet.
Many of our most vocal commenters (who often state contrary opinions to ours)
took to the Facebook Comment system well, though we've lost a few too. So far,
none of the abusive trolls have come over yet.

Unfortunately, I haven't seen the lively discussions we used to get when using
LiveFyre. So there's definitely a trade-off. We're definitely not sold on
Facebook Comments yet; it's just our most recent experiment.

We use the Facebook comment widget on almost all the pages on Causes.com. Two
quick comments:

\- When we run a corporate brand community (such as causes.com/att), our
clients LOVE the number of and types of comments that people leave on the
page. We've all been impressed with the quality of the comments as well.

\- Grammar filter
([http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/commen...](http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/comments/)):
adds punctuation (e.g. periods at the end of sentences), trims extra
whitespace, expands slang words (e.g. plz becomes please), adds a space after
punctuation (e.g. Hi,Cat would become Hi, Cat), and fix common grammar
mistakes (e.g. convert ‘dont' to ‘don’t’). tl;dr Comments that look good
encourage more good comments.

Facebook comments are obviously not a one-size-fits-all solution, but we've
been able to use it pretty well.

On a related note: Does the site get a full copy of the comments? Can you do
your own search, translate interesting discussions, go back years after
facebook have changed their api, or cancelled your dev account, and read over
an interesting discussion?

Anyone have experience with disqus in this regard?

Personally, if
quality comments - I prefer people voice their 
 public opinion without concern of repercussions. Obviously, this thinking is not 
 appropriate for all cases - if you desire product comment for example, by wholly 
 intend Facebook comments might supply the best type.
