I have a table which stores comments, the comment can either come from another user, or another profile which are separate entities in this app.
My original thinking was that the table would have both user_id and profile_id fields, so if a user submits a comment, it gives the user_id leaves the profile_id blank
is this right, wrong, is there a better way?
