Ask HN: I don't see reply links on some comments... is this a bug?
I just noticed that there were a few comments that didn't have reply links. I'd get a pic, but the reply links are there now. Is there some amount of time before I can reply to someone else's comment, is this a bug, or am I just going crazy?
- Mz 17y agoI've noticed the same issue. I hope someone has an answer (explanation).
- mbrubeck 17y agoThe deeper a comment is nested, the longer the delay before the "reply" link appears. This is basically to throttle flamewars or other thread-hijacking discussions.
- zck 17y agoAdditionally, old comments don't have reply links. For example: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=820365 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=820365
