Comment Issue – We're looking into it…

Hey everyone, I’d like to apologize for the commenting issues we seem to be having at the moment. I’m going through right now to manually approve the comments that are getting screwed with, and we’re looking to see what’s causing it as well.

  1. I think my doctor would be happy if I told him I dropped 40p. Haha.
    If this sticks, i will have to adjust my stars.

  2. Work is clearly happening behind the scenes. Some comments that were notably missing have reappeared (Batshitbox's caption is back). That is cause for optimism, even if, in that same time, I've lost some p, and my IntenseDebate post count has dropped to 9. It at least implies that the comments still exist in the ether, and they might come back.
    edit: I lost a lot more p after this post.

  3. Man manually approving all the missing comments must suuuuuuck. I assume you're not going back to reapprove from the beginning of time though.

  4. When Hooniverse asked which company should buy which, all comments containing "Lotus" disappeared for a while. That's a strange censorship guidelines there!

  5. Still better than the infuriating clusterf*ck known as Kinja that contaminates [REDACTED] & the rest of the Gawker properties.

  6. Thanks for this, I was disappointed to see years of comments and points flushed down the memory hole.
