fixes #413

[jpas]

If there are no replies in self._replies['data']['children'] then it will be an empty list anyway.

Is test_all_comments being flakey in this situation?

Thanks for the fix. Regarding your question: somehow the deletion made results in another request being made. That is what the test is checking for. Should another request be made? If not, then perhaps the fix doesn't work as intended.

It'd be nice to have an example where PRAW's current behavior is missing comments, and then show that the fix enables PRAW to fetch the missing comments.

No the extra request should only be made if it was a comment in the user's inbox. For some reason Comment._replies == '' when Comment.was_comment == true when the constructor is called.

Using the following code:

for message in (list(reddit.get_unread()) + list(reddit.get_mentions())):
    if message.was_comment:
        print message.replies

Before It would always print [] even if there are replies to the comment

After It will show that the replies have been fetched.

Ignore my previous comment. It looks like it's already covered by existing tests: https://coveralls.io/builds/2639791/source?filename=praw%2Fobjects.py

Thanks!
