What am I doing wrong? (about posting comments)

[VLRM]

I\'ve been around for a while, but I only started voting recently. No problem with that.

Now, when I try to post a comment, I hit the \'leave a comment\' link, get the window open, vote, write my comment, hit the \'post it\' button, get a \'wait a sec\' screen, and the page shows up again. But no trace of my comment ever appears! It\'s happened to me three times now, so I\'m wondering: am I doing anything wrong?

Read the \"wait a sec\" screen more carefully. It says that all comments are moderated so they will not be immediately visible.

Sometimes it takes a couple of days.

Aaaahhh, thanks. I had noticed that, but I didn\'t connect both things...???

browse images

If you go to the \"browse images\" section of the website it allows you to select how you want the pictures ordered. Scroll down and you will see the second to last entry is: Your Comments. That will bring up every mini you\'ve commented on and allow you to view your quips of wisdom.

Thanks barkel. You see, I always do take care of these details for myself, but since I didn\'t post comments (or vote), I just hadn\'t paid any heed...

remember - your vote there will not count as your vote on the mini. You\'ll see that mini again when you\'re done so you can mirror your comment vote on the mini itself.

I thought maybe Borg put your vote in for you when he approved the comment but I dont think this has been happening

This is actually a good thing with the vote on the comment not cunting towards the mini\'s score. Browsing around, you\'d be surprised how many times people have forgotten to vote while commenting. This inveitably looks wierd as they\'ll highly praise a mini that everyone\'s been giving a 9 or 10 to and there\'s a six. Makes you wonder if they have high standards.
