RE: [Poll] Your Opinions on Hardfork 17 Features
It means each individual comment will have it's own individual payout cycle, much like each pays out on it's own cycle. Current I believe comments pay out when the original post pays out.
You cannot comment after the post's payout now. Note that, there is a second, 30 days payout in the system.
But with the HF proposal to make final payouts after 7 days - there will no longer be a 30-day second payout, right? So if the comments payouts are separate, they would also have final payout at 7 days. I'm assuming that no new comments would be allowed after original post payout then, but have not seen any wordage about it.

Yes, after HF17, only one 7 days long payout period remains.
Since comments count as individual posts in the new system (as you have said, they have separate payout window), I don't see any reason why we shouldn't allow comments after the posts payout.
