[support] D7 Trouble altering comment form

[berliner]

Hi,

see this stackexchange question for possible solutions:
http://drupal.stackexchange.com/questions/33305/is-it-possible-to-change-the-add-new-comment-text-on-certain-content-types 

I have searched google for 'drupal form alter "Add new comment“'.

best regards,
berliner

The only way I can see that happening is if the form array is being changed back after my hook, so I tried changing the module weight to 99 (via mysql) and clearing cache. No difference.
