Aah, good old Manila.
If you want to read all the comments at once, suggest you tell people to read them as topic. Once you get to the comments page/list, go back up to the top and click the topic link (which, in your case, is the day of week, date, year format)
Then you can read everyone's comments in one single web page. Scrolling: good. clicking link to read comment and then clicking back, clicking new link to read next comment and then clicking back, clicking new link to read the next comment and then clicking back: bad. I think this is a configurable option. But I don't recall offhand.
Manila... it brings back memories. I walked over the bed of coals to migrate my site to WordPress.
To my knowledge, things that go into limbo land during the migration are topics that are started by members. (if someone clicks discuss and then posts new topic, etc.) Because the author of the site is you, and that discussion post is not by you.
If it's a discussion post that is in response to your topics, well, okay then. The discussion post migrates.
Somewhen in my Manila career, I went from doing Flip Home Page (for new day turnover) to organizing the site by news items, which allow for briefer posts and categorizing them, as well. Comments to them migrate, too.
