> I find that it makes conversations less aggressive

This is a really interesting perspective on it that I hadn't considered. I have long been annoyed by the lack of comment notifications but now that you put it that way I think you're right. This actually may be a feature of HN rather than a bug. Thanks for sharing that point.

This might be the most meta comment chain on HN.
This entire thread itself is pretty meta :)
This reply is quite clever, but at the current nesting level, nobody will notice.
Unless it is the most upvoted comment
And behold, it is :)
No, mgiannopoulos[0], there is no limit on nesting replies that I'm aware of. I'm nesting another one now!

There is rate-limiting, though, which is probably what you hit. Wait a bit, and you can reply. Or click the "XX minutes ago", and I've found you can reply there.

I noticed dreamcompiler! And apparently there is a limit to the nesting of replies (which is why i’m replying to the parent comment) ?!
