What does "Comment is below threshold" mean in the new forums?

Initially I though it meant said post received enough downvotes to be hidden away just like in the older forums. Except when I look at some posts, I noticed that the ones with these messages were in the positive ratings.

For instance, when I attempted to search for one of Statikk's comments in his recent QA, I wasn't able to find one of his replies by scrolling around till I noticed he has one post with this message on it. Upon opening it up, sure enough it was just that post I was looking for, and it had a POSITIVE 8 rating.

Does "Comment is below threshold" imply something differently than the old forums?

There was a bug where some comments with positive ratings were being hidden. The devs have pushed out a fix for it since. If you are still seeing this somewhere could you provide a screenshot so I can verify? Appreciate your help.

I noticed this too and actually don't know myself. I'll be sure to see if I can find the answer in my purusings and come back here, but until then have an upvote!

Well there are a few examples in Statikk's QA thread. One was from a guy named Gartoz with a positive 26 rating talking about AP mids.

And the other is Statikk answering a question I asked, which had a positive 8 rating.

Both were hidden despite their positive ratings.

erm...how in the world do you even add file attachments in this new system? I see a paperclip symbol, but I can only do one file at a time. Let's see if this works.

It sorta works, but how do I do TWO files then?
