My comments are going directly to spam
-
Help-all of the sudden my comments aren’t posted on blogs and they go directly to spam. I just have to im the owner and say I posted another one and then it’s fished out of spam and posted. Any ideas?

and my own comments are spam too-this is ridiculous-sorry to be rude-but it is. I am new to blogging and wordpress and was having no problems-them BAM! hope it is resolved soon before my ADHD moves me on to the next hobby search-i was having so much fun.

Mark-thank you so much-why didn’t I just come here to begin with? You are the best! And one blogger will love you too-so she doesn’t have to continuously have to go fishing! Wondering-was it anything I could have done or need to know-for future reference? I apologize if my previous comments sounded a little rude. Thanks again! You Rock!

OK-not resolved-just tried to post on same site tonight and didn’t go through-Mark-help me-again. What am I doing wrong?

Probably nothing. Akismet usually has to tighten up during the weekends, because that’s when we get the most spam. Don’t post on other blogs right now, only comment on your own, and go in and de-spam yourself each time, one by one. That will hopefully teach Akismet you’re not spam. If you comment and it shows up right away, you’ll know Akismet learned and it’s safe for you to comment on other blogs.
If it’s not fixed by Monday, send a Support notice in from your dashboard with all the info including what posts you tried to comment on, etc.

I’m now on day two of having all my comments on my own blog going into Akismet.
De-spamming makes no difference — and never has in my experience.
I’ve reported the matter — but it’s rotten the weekends offer no official path for technical support.
That’s why I’ve stopped posting new articles on weekends — if something blows up, it won’t be fixed until Monday.

Thanks, Mark!!!
You’re the best.
They to hire six more of you to provide all that you do 24/7. The internet never closes!
WordPress.com is always active and posting and alive at all times of the day and night and to have one or two people providing tech support for the entire world every day all day — just seems incredibly unfair to me as a common end user.

The ad for another Happiness Engineer has been out for a while so news will not be so far away :)

Mark!
We need more than two of you! We need tons more of you to prevent burnout and cover the entire scope of the world — and you should train them all to imitate and follow your panache and style of kindess.
I know those like you will be hard to find, but if a company wants to live off the fruits of a never-ending web, that company needs to provide and cherish the necessary 24/7 pillars that support the effort from the inside out.

I posted in another thread about this a couple days ago and only realised afterwards that the thread was already marked as resolved.
I’m having the same problem and already de-spammed several of my comments to no avail.

Thanks again Mark-all comments are posting today. Your the best. maybe I should just keep this open for if and when it happens again-since you are on the ball and so quick to respond and fix. Whew-how do you do it? Thanks so much~Mercedes
