My suggestion box entries were getting so many comments that I was starting to find it really difficult to find comments to reply to. Usually you can scroll to the bottom, but what if someone replies to some comment in the middle?
Suddenly, it's the needle in the proverbial poo pile. I mean haystack.
So that seemed like a pretty easy problem to solve - just add comment anchors and link to those. So now when you click the link, it should scroll to the appropriate comment.
Also, a lot of people were not really noticing the entry link above comments on My Comments that takes them to the appropriate entry to reply. I decided to link both the user's icon and name to the entry where they commented as well (with the named anchor so it scrolls to the right place on the page).
What will be more awesome will be the capability to reply directly from your My Comments page... but that's a task for another day. :)
