 * I think comment_karma is related to the Spam Karma plugin, OR maybe whether or
   not you’ve marked it as spam?
 * Comment agent could be maybe from what type of device the comment was made?
 * Comment type – I’m not sure.
 * Comment parent could be maybe if you can reply to comments, those comments will
   be the parent of comments underneath?
 * Not sure though.
 * -k.s.
