It seems like if you’re using embedding, if someone splits the topic the embedded comments start returning 500 errors?

Log of embed error:  
[ActionView::Template::Error (undefined method `id' for nil:NilClass)/home/disc - Pastebin.com](http://pastebin.com/ZSUyi2dc)

Example:  
[Which Launcher? | Haiku Project](https://www.haiku-os.org/blog/moochris/2017-01-22_which_launcher/)

Version: 1.8.0.beta4

I tried and could not. The error seems to indicate it can’t find any replies, so I also tried moving _every_ post out of a topic besides the OP and I still didn’t receive any errors.
