A Loser's Guide to Getting Featured Comment

Our Introduction
The BNCS does not have a very... let's say sensible audience. It's actually so prone to arguments, and it's very diverse, unlike several other comment sections. About three quarters of the commenters are under the minimum age requirement (13). This rule-breaking tends to lead to immature comments that find their way to Featured Comment. So today, I will be analyzing that phenomenon and other ways to get that sweet, sweet, Featured Comment.

Polling
Polling. Arguably one of the most controversial commenting tactics to ever exist. Polling is generally frowned in the BNCW, as it is an easy way to get replies and to get Featured Comment. Polling, in this situation, is defined as asking a question to the commenters. Pollers usually reap substantial amounts of comments, sometimes reaching levels in the hundreds due to how many commenters are in the comment section. This infuriates some commenters such as I, as they make good, related comments, but are then overshadowed by polls. Polls have created serious conflicts before, some of which are recorded on this wiki. Now, there are 2 types of polls, relevant and irrelevant polls.

Relevant Polls
Relevant polls are polls that are related to Big Nate or the strip. The majority of the commenters are fine with these types of polls, as long as the commenter does not spam to get the top comment. One notable commenter who does this is SpyroSays, formerly MartySays.

Irrelevant Polls
Irrelevant polls are polls that have no relation to the strip or Big Nate. Almost everyone on the BNCS despises these because they these usually an amazing way to get featured comment as some commenters argue with the Poller, causing a huge back and forth that ultimately leads to the Featured Comment.
