Comment Views Changed for Most Users

I made a change to the user preferences database so that viewing comments will seem more logical. For anyone who kept their comment view as "Oldest First," I have changed this to "Oldest First (Ignore Threads)" so that comments will be displayed from top to bottom in order of their posting. I think this might make reading the comments more consistent and help prevent people from mistakenly replying to the wrong thread. If you find you don't like this, if you're logged in you can always change it under the User Preferences, "Customize Comments" section. This change affects the Anonymous User account, too.
