A couple of weeks ago I had an issue where my comments disappeared on posts from other blogs. In the end it appeared that they went straight to the spamfilters. A day later the issue seemed to be resolved and I did not have any more problems…..until today that is. Earlier this morning I commented on some posts and my comments disappeared into thin air. In case some of you are wondering why I haven’t replied to a certain post that I liked, you might want to check your spamfilters. I don’t know if it’s the same issue as last time, but until it is resolved I will still ofcourse read your posts and like them, but if you don’t see a comment from me, you now know why.
Hopefully things will return to normal tomorrow (that’s what happened last time), but this is seriously getting annoying WordPress. Well, at least I wanted to give you all an update on what’s going on. If you can, please check your spamfilters to see if any of my comments might have ended up there. I’m sorry for the inconvenience. For now: computer says no 😢
Urgh… what are they doing!

I don’t know….but I just commented on your post Mistakes do happen and so do reverts, and my comment disappeared. So….I think it is now resting in your spam filter. If you have some time, could you check that? I would appreciate it 😊

You want to hear something funny, and I am really not kidding here. Your blog and 100 word anime are the only two blogs where mu comments are coming through. All the other blogs my comments are vanishing as soon as I post them. Three comments over on Dani’s blog…poof gone. Seriously annoying to say the least 😢

It is seriously annoying. I’m getting to the point where I am wondering if I just have to stop posting comments on other posts right now until this is solved, I have been reading posts for almost two hours now, and except for two blogs, every single comment that I gave has disappeared. It is really starting to get on my nerves 😢

Aww that sounds really disheartening 😥 I hope it’s fixed soon, for you 🙂
I wonder if WordPress has an IT guy/gal or Technical person, that you can report problems like this to 🙂
This has just popped into my head and might be ridiculous. But have you tried logging out and back in again?

The last time this happened, I contacted them on twitter, but besides a reply that really didn’t help, they never got bsck to me. Yes, I have tried that as well…and it didn’t work. My comments did appear in the spamfilter again, as one fellow blogger has already said so to me. Hopefully the issue will resolve itself soon. 😊 Thanks for the kind words: appreciate it 😊

What a horrible bug, given that interacting with bloggers is one of the best things about WordPress. Thankfully I got your recent comment with no problems. Probably because I removed you from the trash filter last time.
Maybe because you comment so much WordPress thinks you are a spam bot of some kind 😀

No worries! I should really check my filters more often just in case stuff ike that happens. Most of them are the usual ‘you need fresh content’ or ‘monetize with us’ comments, but I had one from you and one from one other person that were definitely not spam. The odd thing with the other one is that the ‘spam’ comment was a reply to a reply that I had given to one of their comments.

Yeah…it seems that there are a lot of issues with WordPress at the moment. I hear a lot of complaints from other bloggers as well, that had either the same issues, or other things that did not work well.

As I said, this happens to me off an on every so often (used to happen more often but my internet connection has been reasonably stable lately so now so much). Unfortunately, I’ve never found a fix for it other than letting people know via twitter and hoping they check their spam occasionally.

Hopefully you’ll get this straightened out.
In the last few days, I’ve noticed a dramatic rise in spammers (well, probably only a couple that just keep changing IPs) flooding my blog with their ads for their stupid FIFA coins and onesie pajamas. (Side note to them: screw you!) Probably a coincidence since I don’t have Jetpack or another spam filtering plugin activated, but maybe one of those idiots are using your IP or a similar one? Your comments are always detailed and individualized, so I don’t understand why yours would be auto-deleted when so much junk goes through.
