honestly I think an even simpler fix would just have it notify the owner via PM when a reply was posted to a journal, and likewise, notify the person who commented in another person's journal when/if a reply was posted to their comment.

I've left my 2 cents on a few people's journals but i'll be damned if I'll ever see if that 2 cents turned into a dollar or not since I honestly can't remember who or which entries they were.
I'm not sure how far back people are commenting on your journal entries, but I can't remember a time when I received a comment on an entry that was more than a few days old. Could be that I am missing them, but I don't think so. Still, I don't understand why tracking comments should be a critical factor in the journal format. If there's a fix for notification of when and where comments are posted, then that's great. I hope there is. But, I don't think it's worth changing the entire mood of the journal forum for.
