Comment(by paulhastings0):

 Loading unseen comments via AJAX would be sweet because it would speed up
 the initial page-load speed.

 @r-a-y Good idea. Here's the 1.3 ticket: #2605

 @johnjamesjacoby The ideal situation is more theoretical I suppose. I run
 [http://jibenow.com JibeNow] a social network for Christian homeschoolers
 and we use the [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-activity-
 stream-bump-to-top/ BuddyPress Activity Stream Bump to Top] plugin from
 @nuprn1. Every time someone replies to an update the update is bumped back
 to the top of the activity stream.

 As you've seen this can create extremely long conversations sometimes. A
 good portion of the users won't have any interest in the conversation
 though and just want to scroll past it as quickly as possible. Some of
 them have suggested that ''"all"'' or ''"all but the last 2"''activity
 replies be hidden by default and only revealed when a "show replies" tab
 is clicked. That would make skimming the site ''much'' faster.
