Live Feed For Comments

I've been doing stuff in a few RPG galleries, but somebody often posts before me, although I don't see it. So, an effect has already happened that makes my post impossible. I think that for these reasons (and others) a live update for the comments would be useful.

Re: Live Feed For Comments

That's a lot of work for a small reward. If you think about it, even in the most viewed projects and galleries, comments aren't posted that fast. (Maybe one per minute at the most) I can't see much use for it, to be honest.

But there are times that there is a post in an RPG gallery before yours. And other stuff. [blocks] <play sound[ banana [/blocks]

In some situations, I've seen three comments or so a minute. I've experienced this many times before and it is a problem, especially for people who take five minutes writing RPG posts. I think there actually used to be a live comment stream a few years ago, because I remember feeling awkward since it seemed like everyone had stopped, only to discover I had to refresh the page.
Since there used to be one, it's entirely possible, and I don't know why it's not back yet.
