Rumors/IP
There are times in a rumor's life where I -really- want to jump back in with an additional comment on a rumor, but that isn't possible under the current setup. However, I had the idea that perhaps if we pay an IP (or 2 or whatever), it will allow us to get involved in a given rumor again.

I like that, you can comment more than once, but only your first reply affects the spread or whatever.
I've run into this same problem often and while I definitely like the idea of having the chance to respond to comments on a rumor I start, I also understand the need to limit how much you can participate on a rumor. Maybe being able to respond -once-, appending to your initial comment, could be helpful, though if everyone can do it I think we'd just end up with the same issue of having just one more thing to say.
I support the idea of having one extra chance to respond to a rumor, likely appended to your original comment to make it clear that it's the same source, definitely not earning you any extra IP and probably costing you some. But if it can't be put in for whatever reason, remember that you still have the option of asking friends to weigh in on your behalf. It doesn't cost you IP that way, potentially earns them some, and presents a good opportunity for discussing the rumors with other PCs versus letting the whole thing play out 'safely' through the rumor mill.
