What does the red dotted line next to some top-level comments mean? (kbin.social)

I've noticed that some comments on threads will have a red, dotted line next to them, almost like it's the color coding for child comments, but it shows up occasionally on a top-level comment which has no parent comment. I've tried looking at the accounts where I see this, but I can't find any patterns for it yet, myself. Any ideas what this is?

Ooohhh, I was wondering why they didn't have a way to signify who the OP was when commenting, this helps so much.

Edit: it also seems that your own personal comments are highlighted with a green dotted line, unless you are OP.
