I've noticed that some comments on threads will have a red, dotted line next to them, almost like it's the color coding for child comments, but it shows up occasionally on a top-level comment which has no parent comment. I've tried looking at the accounts where I see this, but I can't find any patterns for it yet, myself. Any ideas what this is?

I think I figured it out immediately after posting this, lol. If there's a red line next to this comment, then I think that's to highlight OP's comments in their own thread.

your own reply seems to prove this true :)
good to know

Ooohhh, I was wondering why they didn't have a way to signify who the OP was when commenting, this helps so much.
Edit: it also seems that your own personal comments are highlighted with a green dotted line, unless you are OP.

No red line next to your comment for me... Hmm, maybe it's instance specific.

Yeah, I think this might be a Kbin-specific feature.

Presumably this appearance can be tweaked with different themes available in the setup menu.
