Commenting on comments

I've noticed that you comment on someone's initial post, and you can reply to a comment on the initial post, but you can't reply to a comment on a comment. Other services, like LiveJournal, do allow comments on comments. I'd like to see MyLot implement this feature, and have emailed them a request to do so. Anyone else have an opinion? I'm hoping that if enough people want it, they'll implement it.

You can actually comment on a comment. You can try it. You just needed some time to be familiar with mylot! Welcome Rhoadan!

How carefully did you read the OP? I've noticed that you can comment on a top-level comment like the one I'm replying to, but if there's a way get more than two levels of comments on a post, I'm not seeing it. That's what I want, a way to get three or more levels of comments on a post.

This is an example of a comment to a comment. If you respond, it will be a comment to a comment on a comment!!

Actually, this does rather make my point for me. If you look at the comment tree, your second comment is a reply to your first comment, not my comment. FTM, this comment is a reply to your first comment, not your second one even though that's the one I want to reply to. I'd like to see a comment tree that looks like: OP (Opening Post) 1 first level comment 2 second level comment 3 third level comment 4 fourth level comment 5 second level comment 6 third level comment 7 first level comment The same sequence of comment here would look like: OP 1 first level comment 2 second level comment 3 second level comment 4 second level comment 5 second level comment 6 second level comment 7 first level comment Not quite the same thing. Does this clarify what I'm trying to say?

I agree, I have been here for over a year now and it is frustrating! I often forget a comment the person has made and would love to be able to re-read the second comment while I am responding to it! If they implemented this, I would be happy! :) ~Heavens~
