Customer Portal - Multiple Threads on Ticket

Has anyone identified a workaround for this? Presently for tickets with multiple conversations (more than one) I have:

  1. Targeted the original conversation as a base - customer have expressed that it is important to them that they have visibility to the original submission
    Trashed all conversations associated with the ticket
  2. Gone into the conversations trash and taken a screenshot (or copy and paste) the “trashed” conversations/threads
  3. Replied in the remaining thread with the C&P’d infor and or the screenshot.
    This is not ideal for our brand or our customers
