I NEED COMMENT-RELATED HELP PLEASE THANKYOU
is it possible to see the highest rated comments of all time?
i was just reading one of dag's comments (something rubbish about embryos having brains) and realised it had 50-odd upvotes. i then thought to myself, "wouldn't it be nice to see all comments ever made on here, listed according to appreciation". next thing i did was walk to the recent comments room. i noticed a box in the corner that let me see comments with the 'highest rating', so i went for that option. a huge wave of disappointment then washed over me as i realised that the comments hadn't been listed from 'best' to 'worst'.
so is there a way to do it? if not, can it be done? maybe with a cron-job? they're easy right? i've heard joedirt mention them before.

Nothing simpler, my good man. Just use advance search, sort order by "Most votes", leave the search term empty and there you go.

excellent answers, thankyou both.
this case is closed.
It never crossed my mind to use the search for sorting voted comments. This is going to keep me occupied for a while.
it's actually more fun if you search for the comments with the least amount of votes. it's basically all of billoreilly's comments.
SOB, I have the third highest ranked comment?! I feel validated in so many ways.
