I have been unable to comment on blogs I read frequently for the past week. I type the comment in and it never gets posted. This has happened on three different blogs by three different owners. Please help and advise!

That’s not the case. I have been commenting for a very long time and they are blogs that’s owners are my close friends. They don’t have comments waiting in moderation and I haven’t been blocked. They are as baffled as I am.

That’s odd. Try other browsers, re-login, do the cookie dance, and if nothing helps, contact support monday.

Looks like I am going to have to contact support. It simply won’t post anything that I comment anywhere! It’s so frustrating. I have deleted all cookies, tried another browser, re-logged and nothing!! Aargh!!! I am irritated!!! By the time it’s fixed I won’t even remember what I wanted to comment!!

annoying, I understand, and do contact support, but if you can’t remember it in a day or two, it surely cannot be all that important.

Tell your friends to check their spam queue.

If you leave a comment on my blog, I can check to see if you’re getting dumped in Akismet.

No, it’s just that the messages may not be as relevant in a day or two as they would be now. Hopefully it will get resolved soon!

Contact the blog owner and ask them to check if your comment is marked spam and if so, to mark your comment as “not spam”.

There are more suggestions in this thread:

You got dumped into Akisment.

I’m unspamming you now.

Is there a way to unspam me so that I no longer get filtered? Or does each time I comment on a post the comment just automatically get filtered and they will have to keep unspamming me? Is there a way to correct this? I hate that I can’t actually comment to anything until I am retrieved from the spam filter!
