Comments Never Get Posted as a User
-
I find it strange that Google supposedly owns Word Press. Yet my user comments get posted using other email accounts than Gmail. As it is this is the Worst Commenting Client on the Web. We wait to see posts that most of the time never get posted. No Editiing Function standard on Disqus. I don’t know how things operate, but I suspect lots of comments never make it due to over zealous Mods and most likely in Google Word Press itself!
What’s going on and when is Word Press going to ever treat user commenters with respect? As it is this is the main reason I don’t bother leaving comments knowing they’ll never get posted anyway! Get Real People some of us don’t love being treated badly just so a few closed minded Mods an be happy and snickering about pulling strings on a really dumb system that’s way more DEAD… than it is Alive!!!

Hi there,
First of all, Google does not own WordPress. WordPress is an open source software being developed by a large community of volunteers. You can read more about that here:
Regarding your commenting issue. WordPress site owners have full control over comments left on their sites. This means that your comments may not appear there because the site’s owner has not approved them.
Also, can you please let me know the address of the site where your comments don’t show up and the WordPress.com account you’re using to post them?

Hello,
Sorry, I didn’t dig into this issue much and I’m a former coder in the Open Source Community so I should have known better. So that puts Google and Word Press in the clear for me. The problem seems to be unique to this site and maybe it’s Mike the site owner that’s got the problem with Google Email Addresses? All I know is if I use Outlook’s Live Mail Site or Protonmail.com there are fewer problems. But comments made via my Gmail account entry as account being used never make it to post:
Site Owner: Mike DammannAlso, I recently posted a comment on another site with zero problems:
Now I’m inclined to think this site owner has a thing against Gmail #1 and is just so much more of a control freak than anyone else online is. He seems not about to allow comments to be freely posted without his Gestapo like Eye viewing every post and if he can’t…. he removes them anyway, plus lies about it.
This is a case where site owners can give WordPress a bad name and maybe you need to change some things so the Hitlers out in WordPress Land don’t have the ability to use WordPress Client Software, outside of the normal rules!

Did I say something wrong? I’m just wondering because I’m still waiting for a response on my last answer to your question. I gave the answer and don’t seem to be getting any responses. Either from the site or Support here!
No email’s and no notifications. Hopefully I get one here soon! Thanks!

Hi there,
The site where your comment did not appear, although it using WordPress, it is not hosted by us (WordPress.com) and therefore I don’t know the exact reason why your comment hasn’t been published. My guess is that it’s either caught by an automated filter or that the site owner chose not to publish it.
Also, note that we (WordPress.com) have no control over the WordPress software and we cannot simply create rules on who can and cannot use the software. WordPress is a free and open source software that anyone can use to create their site.

Hello, I tried to respond to your post. But it seems to have failed to post. So here is another try;
Apparently the site owner takes time to monitor all comments, rather than run a Live Posting site. Where comments get posted instantly. Which is was I got from a WordPress site hosted by Word Press itself.Which even here seems to not working for me. Could be talking too long to write a post and it fails or some other problem, but apparently this topic site isn’t posting live comments for me either. How about Browser Choice? Could that be the problem or maybe Ad Blockers, etc. Anyway let’s see if this comments posts ‘Live’ or at least posts within a few days!

Ok that worked! …so apparently you run a time filter or some other code in your software, that time limits comment posting!
So I’ll just try Cut/Refresh/ and C/P of comments on Rhesus Negative Site!

We sometimes cache things here in our forums, so that could be why your comment didn’t show up right away. :)
I think you’re all set, but if you need more help with a site hosted here, let us know. Cheers!

Hello, well it works here to write a quick comment and submit it to get it instantly posted. But the other site in question must have everything being moderated by the site person in question. Because I write up a comment in an editor first and then C/P it to post it. Still waiting on posts there!
Thanks!
