Sort:  

If I remember correctly from the whitepaper, there aren't any bot-proof curation penalties for comments like there are on posts, but if you for instance would reply to this reply of mine now, you would somehow share the value your comment created with me and maybe the whole comment tree.

But then again there could be penalties on curation rewards for comments too, since I doubt its hard for bots to start upvoting them instantly in every thread. :P
