[Suggestion] Direct Linking to Comments

I don't believe we have such a system in place on GG yet, but it might be worth implementing.

I propose a direct link to comments system, much like the one we have on Neo, that would enable users to... well... directly link to certain comments.

This could help us highlight specific comments in the forums, as well as when quoting other member's comments on GameGrep.


Assuming there is a decent CommentID system and all of that good database stuff I wouldn't venture this would all that difficult to implement.



Edit:

After a little more thought and poking around- it turns out there is a direct link to comments available (which I should have known/guessed) but as of right now it seems the only way to access these links is to click to your comments via your profile and activity page.

For instance- I was able to get to this comment via my latest activity, however in the comment itself I don't see anything providing that #c70078 or whatever.

Similarly- to the "Last Commented" section- the links only direct you to the article itself, not the new comment. I feel it would be more beneficial to link directly to the comment.


In Short - 2 Pronged Suggestion here:
  • Have an easier way for users to direct link to their comments similar to the direct message on Neoseeker.
  • Have the "Last Commented" links link directly to the new comment.

re: [Suggestion] Direct Linking to Comments

I also suggested this as well which is now on page 2, I think all comments, not just yours should have an ID like Neoseeker so we know how to direct comment to them. Its a pain in the arse when Im trying to show someone a comment and them having to scroll down to find my post.

re: [Suggestion] Direct Linking to Comments

oh man...when you use font size 1 in combination with sup your text becomes soooo tiny and is hard to read

We're actually going to be redoing how comments look and have something for this in mind.
