However, I see:

No more than 3 consecutive replies are allowed. Please edit your previous reply, or wait for someone to reply to you.

This has been rather discompassionately corroborated before now:

1. @remco_k

   I can’t post my fourth screenshot (from:test5-expected-result.pdf) because of stupid rules/limits here. You’d have to open it yourself.

   Please remove these terrible limits from this forum:

   Sorry, new users can only put one embedded media item in a post.
   Sorry, new users can only put 2 links in a post.
   We're sorry, but new users are temporarily limited to 3 replies in the same topic.
   No more than 3 consecutive replies are allowed. Please edit your previous reply, or wait for someone to reply to you.
   

   It almost made me just leave it with that and not post my findings and with that wasting my time.

2. @Lupp

   Concerning my remark on Discourse:
   “No more than 3 consecutive replies are allowed. Please edit your previous reply, or wait for someone to reply to you.”
   (@administrators: Might someone please tell the Discourse to respect the contributors. If such a restriction should be acceptable at all, it must show when the intended post is opened in an empty frame)

I have yet to observe this restriction at any alternative Discourse instance, and see no reason for its continued application. Consequently, I suggest that it be removed.

you meant comment ? → Ask/Guide - How to use the Ask site - The Document Foundation Wiki

@rokejulianlockhart

reason

possibly, having contributors to think about synthesis.
not too hard to combine few pics into one, if really necessary.

ps. lengthy topics are also almost unreadable within this Discourse.
not even talking about those spreading over 5+ years

I have no idea of what this means.

The aforementioned plugin threads them, so I disagree.

@fpy, in the HTML5 source, they’re “topic”s, per their XPaths (//*[@id="post_2"]). However, why debate this? I ask because I want to differentiate between comments and answers, so unless you’ve better terminology to suggest, this isn’t assistive.

That’s trivial to accomplish:

Regardless, this is, unfortunately, difficult to solve in Discourse:

Threaded comments when using Discourse for website comments?

I’d like them threaded, but they shan’t do it. This is tangential, however.

@rokejulianlockhart

why

cause if you look regularly at the contents, you’ll find that all over, e.g.

@EarnestAl

BTW. Yours was a comment, not a solution, please add information or reply to comments by clicking the comment bubble in the comment to which you want to reply.

@ajlittoz

Please, please, follow site etiquette: don’t use Suggest a solution for what is not an answer to original post. Comments are there to simulate a discussion: they are never moved and keep their chronological order. In addition, where there are several answers, they are attached to the answer you want to discuss.

etc etc

I want to differentiate

good. just don’t mix them up.

@fpy, I provided the context in my original post. I explained it was to be an answer.
