- In your comments table, isn't the comments_comments column a little redundant?

I don't need a status table. Not necessary. I will have only two status, hide or show i.e 0 or 1.
I'll change them. Between, can you explain difference between signed and unsigned? :)
It should be comment_comment. I know it sounds confusing. I have two choices, either stay with it due to the table prefix standard in other tables or just change it to comment. The first option sounds better to me but I'll consider a second opinion.
