I wish one if the mods or something could answer the question, or maybe work to get it changed so we can continue conversations longer...

yeah, new users dont know how to continue the comment from the last reply and the person usually doesn't see it unless they have that setting on

I just use a Galaxy, and as long as I'm getting notifications, I see a reply option in the upper right corner of my comment, untill all of a sudden the reply option disappears and it just says flag. Is there only a certain number of responses allowed? I don't get it...

the number of replies to a single comment is infinite, i can reply to your 1 comment forever

Oops, flagged your last comment by mistake trying to respond to it. See how confusing this is? And if your trying to follow someone else's conversation, it doesn't make sense because the replies are with the wrong comments. Pretty soon this talk will be over, too. One of us will have the last word and there's nothing we can do about it...

lol it's ok, the mod will probably look at it and read the rest of this convo and think about it.
Wdym by last word in this convo, if we wanted to we could go on forever.

That moment you've been here since 2017:

Wait, now the dotted lines are gone. Oh well, now I know. I can try this out in the next dialogue/debate. Usually with Octavia...😆👍

How? These threads will end. Unless we make a new comment on the original posted meme...

1 up, 4y

Wait a minute... so I can keep commenting on this one , but not the one you just made?
[deleted]
0 ups, 4y
yeah, because that's where the comment string ends
1 up, 4y,

So, its the yellow one that's the last in the thread. And I can keep commenting on this one?
[deleted]
0 ups, 4y
yeah, thats normally how the convos go
1 up, 4y,

Well, that's the issue. You can't. Or at least, it doesn't seem to work for me. Is it possible to stop the replies? If you can, how is it done? Keep replying, and we'll see...

what do you mean by "stop the replies"
1 up, 4y,
1 reply
This is what I'm talking about. I can't reply to your last comment, so I have to go to the one before it. And so on, untill I can't reply at all. Thats not unlimited replies. And cuts off the conversation prematurely. Its frustrating.
[deleted]
0 ups, 4y
yeah.

But you can reply to that comment forever

Is it possible for someone to stop the reply thread?
[deleted]
1 up, 4y
not to my knowlege no, so this is the last comment in the string, so people usually reply to the,in this case yellow comment.
1 up, 4y,
1 reply
Yeah, thats what I was thinking. Like indents. You can only go so far before you run out of room. Maybe time to re-format?
[deleted]
1 up, 4y
Perhaps but i think it's been like this for a while
i could be wrong tho
1 up, 4y,

Why not though? If there are unlimited comments on the meme, why can't there be unlimited replies to a comment?
[deleted]
0 ups, 4y
i mean idk

but you know that in a comment chain the reply is slightly to the side, maybe that's why?
