    One good thing I do like about the auto-comments, is that sometimes a user would ping me (or I will be auto-pinged) if the duplicate suggestion did/didn't help them. Then I could find a better one or help them see why it does answer their question. That would not be possible anymore (easy fix: I could of course follow the post...)

    Or add a comment manually, explaining why you think that dupe is a good fit. Attributing these comments to the Community user gives people the choice if they want to be pinged or not. This is especially helpful when dealing with controversial topics. Revenge downvoting really is happening there.
