Why do you mandate password entry to post to another blog then dump my post?
-
I tried leaving a comment on another WordPress.com blog. Because I used the same email address to leave my comment as I use for my WordPress.com account, your system required me to log in before it would post my comment. By the time I got through the runaround of unnecessarily being forced to log in (which required a reset of my password because I only have an account here to enable Jetpack on my self-hosted WordPress site so I didn’t remember that password), and included the login info YOU REQUIRED I provide, and clicked the button to post my comment, your system ATE MY COMMENT. If you’re going to mandate unnecessary hoops to use your system, you might at least have the courtesy to remember what I was doing in the first place and successfully complete that action. It was a somewhat lengthy comment that I was too infuriated with YOU to bother recomposing or retyping. BAD WORDPRESS….BAD BAD WORDPRESS!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

What was the blog you had trouble leaving comments on? Without that all you have done it rant and nobody can help you
-
But I did put the name of the blog in the field you provided but then I suppose your wonderful systems didn’t provide that info?
And a frustrated customer has a right to rant, so climb off the high horse and be helpful.
The blog I was commenting on was johnpavlovitz.com

YOU really need to stop pointing fingers. Auxclass is a volunteer and fellow blogger, as am I. If you wish to communicate with staff, the volunteer-staffed forums are not the place for it, and there’s no particular reason we should accept blame for things we didn’t do.

Insults get you no help –
I ask because the field at the bottom is also an auto fill field and the default is to your own blog – NOT another blog – so wanted folks a chance to give you an accurate answer and not an answer maybe to why you could not comment on your own blog – which given your attitude would have been another rant of some sort – when I start a thread here MY web site URL defaults to the field – if I am having trouble with another blog (and I have several times) – I need to put the problem blog in the main text

@daviddeyo,
A blog administrator isn’t required to post your comments immediately, or at all, if she or he doesn’t want to. Perhaps an administrator of the blog you tried to comment on has one or more of the comment screening options checked off in Discussion Settings. For example,- Comment author must fill out name and e-mail
- Users must be registered and logged in to comment
- Before a comment appears, comment must be manually approved
- Before a comment appears, comment author must have a previously approved comment
