Sometimes I like to try to use links to Comments on the MATLAB Answers board, like this one
http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/143390#comment_227864
but lately I find they don't take you to the Comment. They just take you to the top of the thread. Am I the only one experiencing this?

I think that happens if the comment you're linking to is one of the "hidden" comments, like when there are more than 3 comments. I don't know why that is. Unhidden comment links seem to work.

I think it should be fixed. Ask Randy Sousa or John Kelly at the Mathworks. Though there are other things I 'd like to see more like ability to suspend spammer accounts. I had a big battle with spammer bots this morning and lost to the bots who were posting faster than I could delete them.

Image Analyst is correct, the bug occurs when you link to a hidden comment. We'll get it fixed (though, to Image Analyst's other point, we are focused on the spam problem at the moment).
