Provide an instance of CommentForest .

This attribute can be used, for example, to obtain a flat list of comments, with any MoreComments removed:

submission . comments . replace_more ( limit = 0 ) comments = submission . comments . list ()

Sort order and comment limit can be set with the comment_sort and comment_limit attributes before comments are fetched, including any call to replace_more() :

submission . comment_sort = "new" comments = submission . comments . list ()

Note The appropriate values for comment_sort include confidence , controversial , new , old , q&a , and top
