@NotMrBenn is hoping for some hot action and the smell of burning rubber. Source

@geekjen thinks votes on comments is competing with votes on posts: We think they're symbiotic. Source
@tibfox laments the lack of use of d.buzz: The issue is that Twitter is used to promote Hive across social media outside of Hive. d.buzz is basically people talking inside Hive. Source

@PowerGames8 isn't happy with d.buzz Source
@JayBosworth5 says he's been upvoting comments more. ^5 Source
@MarkyHive only uses Samsung SD cards in his Raspberry Pi's. Too expensive for us. Source

@snook's Great Grandmother clearly had no TV or radio because she had 13 kids! Talk about entertain yourself! Source

@galenkp is 'doing it' in front of his wife while wearing a handyman belt. Source
@hivewatcher, after we threw our toys across the floor @hivewatcher, bent over backwards to stop us blarting. Source
