ok, i gave it a shot and i still don't like it. when there are several New comments, i can see where they all are (basically). then, when i reply to one, i basically know where the other ones are for me to read. now, they're all bounced to the top. and when i reply, now THAT one's at the top...i'm so obfuscated.
again with the red new!
If you reply a comment, tho, all the New markers disappear
that's my point...if there are two New comments on one thread, and three New comments on another thread; then if i reply to the one thread, i have to remember which other thread had the other New comments...did i explain that well?
