The mystery of disappearing comments.

There has been a massive amount of comments going missing lately, and people are starting to wonder why.

Well let me clear it up. Once a comment is posted, it goes through certain filters to check whether it looks like spam or whether it has bad language. If it is clear it gets posted straight away. If it is not, then it goes into a moderation queue until the administrators approve it.

So it is not lost, you just have to wait for it to be approved. You do not need to repeatedly post the same comment over and over. That just means we have to delete five of the same comment before posting the oldest one.

I know some of the reason behind this is because I am the only admin. If I am busy I dont check the soccer club email, so that gives you all more time to think “hmmm, that comment didn’t show up for the third time. I better post it again…”, and I have a full in box when I get home. So I am going to take the step and promote a few people.

I will post some instructions soon.
