* Set the default comment threshold to -8. This means that comments are
hidden at -8 or lower and greyed out at -4 or lower.
* Reset the comment threshold to -8 for anyone with a threshold greater
than -8. For reference, only about ~3100 users had a non-default
threshold. About 1600 of those had their threshold reset to -8.
* Change the comment threshold to a less-than-or-equal comparison
instead of a less-than comparsion. This means that a threshold of 0
before is the same as a threshold of -1 now. Since everyone's
thresholds were reset, this only affects people whose thresholds were
already less than -8, which is so low that the difference shouldn't
matter much.
* Set the maximum comment threshold to 5. For reference, less than 1% of
comments have a score greater than 5.
* Set the minimum comment threshold to -100. For reference, the most
downvoted comment has a score of -60.
