I haven’t been here at WordPress.com for all that long, and I don’t think I’ll stick around.
I’ve found that when I comment at someone else’s blog, my comment disappears. This has happened several times, and it’s very disheartening, because I like to respond to thoughtful prose with thoughtful comments, and it’s hard to recreate what I commented after it disappears.
I checked to see if this happens to other people, and apparently it does. But as you can see here and here and (quite cleverly) here, no one has a solution.
It’s too bad, because I like the rest of WP.com. But I’m no techie, so I think I will look into other options before long, because blogging is no fun when you can’t form community with others.
I think you’re on to something. I regularly politely leave non- offensive comments on blogs, which never appear
I’m sorry to hear you have that problem, too, Gail. It’s quite frustrating. Like you, I’ve left positive inoffensive comments, so I assume it’s not what I’m writing, just some kind of glitch that some of us are finding.
