Weird comment thing?

SuburbanSkies 5/20/2025 03:28 pm 149

I commented on someone's forum and tried reloading it a few times, but it still says one comment? Even though from my POV there are two, mine and someone else's. It's not a huge concern but I'm just wondering if something is wrong on my end? I don't think I've been shadowbanned, since just yesterday people were replying to my comments, and even though the recent forums I've posted haven't received any comments, they are getting views (and I don't think those are all from me lol) and the lack of comments is probably lack of interest in what I'm saying (I'ma start using clickbait titles like Inkclaw to get people to talk about Star Trek with me /j). Also, I don't really see any reason why I would be. Anyways, if you're seeing this and there are no comments, can you comment so I know I haven't been shadowbanned? Thanks 1.gif

yeah happens to me all the time, i call it comment/reply jail
i think its just the automod flagging stuff so it has to be mod approved to be posted, like threads being put under reveiw but they dont tell u

I don’t think it’s “shadowbanning” but more likely the mods having to approve things

@Questioning_Foxself: oh ok thanks! I guess this website is generally a bit glitchy lol

don’t worry, no shadow banning is going on here. Crumpet has acknowledged a glitch recently that prevents comments from being seen by others for a while for unknown reasons. She said when she has the time to she’ll look into why that is the case

The clickbait thing lowkey so real though…
