My problem with multi-line comments is people do forget to close them or delete the close accidentally. Then, code will not run as it is within a bigger comment. That can't happen with single line comments. They automatically close at the end of the line. int x = 5; /* Example comment x += 2; /* Second comment */ // x is still 5, but a quick look might convince you it is 7. I've spent many hours tracking down these types of errors.

Single line comment you have to comment every line but don't have to close the comment. Multi line comment you open and close a block of lines within your comment.
