Why can't I reply to some comments?
-
On my own blog, some comments have the “reply” link just under the comment, but some don’t. If I reply to them from my dashboard (comments page), my comment doesn’t show up as being nested under their comment. What’s the deal?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

How many levels have you selected for nested or threaded comments? Dashboard > Settings > Discussion
Enable threaded (nested) comments __ levels deep- Turn on this option to allow visitors to reply to other comments inline/nested. When turned on it can allow for better discussions and responses. We suggest using a maximum of 3 levels deep. Anything higher and the theme layouts may not work as expected. Note: Enabling the setting only applies to new comments since existing comments don’t have any threading date. However, disabling this setting applies to all comments. http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/discussion-settings/#other-comment-settings

Also note that as pingbacks are located along with comments in the dashboard, and displayed with the comments on posts, some bloggers think that pingbacks are comments when they are not. Please read this > http://en.support.wordpress.com/comments/pingbacks/
