oh yeah its in your inbox, in a comment you can use the parent button for the same purpose.

And if it isnt a reply to me? If I attempt to link to a comment someone else made as a top level comment all that does is lead me back to the thread. I want to link to a specific comment in a thread which wasnt a reply to me.

I always thought the parent button was somewhat like that.

The parent button works similar to permalink. Copy and paste a parent link from a comment not made to you and put in new tab. You'll see that it works like permalink. It does not tell you "you are viewing a single comment", but does highlight the comment in question and shows parent / children of highlighted comment.

Link me directly to your answer. You cant. The parent is the thread itself. Its a half assed solution from a half assed developer. Instead of just making a permalink function this half baked bullshit is pushed.

Notice the link is different from the last link I posted. It is a direct link to my reply with comments above / below shown as reference with the linked comment highlighted. Not sure what you want, but you do seem pretty damn upset about it.
Upset that developers / admins for a free site are not providing some very specific feature in the way that you want it, which is just odd. I suggest you learn to use and accept the parent feature or move on. Life is too short to get this upset about permalink vs. parent.

Parent isnt a link directly to a comment for several reasons. For instance if you reply to this thread and I click Parent it leads me back to this thread. I am looking for a link Directly to a comment within this thread. Not the entire thread.
