A tech support question. How do I navigate the comments. Many sites have all the single pages lined up and accessible somewhere. But here I only can clip on next/prev. But when I want to navigate to the first comment of a user with many comments that takes a while. Is there another way that I am missing, or at least a hack for that?
I remember there being some string you could paste into a URL that would take you to a given user’s first page of submissions, but I can’t find where it’s specified.
Your earliest comments by adding ?count=100000&before=t1_1 to your basic comment page. Without the 100000, it will still display the earliest comments, but not provide the “prev” button to go to later comments.
It really should be “later” and “earlier” rather than “prev” and “next” which are an arbitrary convention found in both forms across sites.

Wei Dai did this thing: http://www.ibiblio.org/weidai/lesswrong_user.php But it won’t load arbitrary numbers of comments.
