Changes (by andraganescu):

 * milestone:  Awaiting Review => Future Release


Comment:

 I too like the attached solution by @joyously in the sense that it is a
 very clear message presented:

 - comments are allowed on the post
 - no more comments can be made because the post is too old

 This allows various scenarios when maybe the author refreshes the post and
 so the comments reopen, or they change the automatic comment closure
 setting and the comments are still allowed.

 Disabling the option simply removes the actual problem from sight.
