Comment deletions..

I was trying to clean up "junk comments' in Movable Type, and inadvertently deleted the last 20 real comments at Wampum. I apologize.

Just call me John A., I guess.

NB: Just want to point out that neither Chris nor Nezua's interfaces are accepting my comments at the moment...harumph....Not that that has anything to do with my over-eager digits...

Comments

what??? how weird! do you have any idea why? you guys run MT. has it happened to you? someone else said that the other day...and i have no idea what it could be. i've been getting plenty of comments ,clearly...hunh. it really bothers me to hear it.

anyway, i'm glad you posted this because i was like "did i say something wrong?" when i saw my comment gone.

Probably better for our future job prospects.

How about that freezer Eric?

Scrubber!

So hat happens when you try to post at my joint? error message? failure to load? auto-refresh to DKos?

"and inadvertently deleted the last 20 real comments at Wampum"

Thank God! I was afraid I had been shunned!

And the term "IndianBorg" must be preserved for future generations.

Chris and Nez, I write out a comment, hit enter, and it just never shows up (although at UM, it did say it was being held for moderation.) I did it twice over at CRN and once at UM. It's a conspiracy, I tell, ya. Well, it would be, except my own comment here at Wampum got held yesterday as well. I found it in the "junk" bin, and along with some others. That was why I was in there in the first place cleaning it up.

hmmm. odd odd odd. i always check my junk folder. very strange. and annoying. at least i knew about yours. i wonder if any people think i'm trashing their comments. THIS MUST NOT STAND!

okay. it is POSSIBLE that i missed your comment in a few pages of junk comments. i scan closely, but it could happen. so i've entered the email addy you've used when we've corresponded via email into my filters. this way you won't even get hung up on moderation the "first" time you comment, as is the usual deal until i approve an addy. this way, you dont even end up in the junk folder at all. as long as you use that email and dont misspell it, etc.

also, sometimes you cant see a comment when you post it until you refresh the page. but still, this shouldn't have stopped me from finding it.

anyway, thanks for tellng me and here's hoping it's not a problema en el futuro.
