Help, can't post comments on the front page.

Thu Oct 25, 2012 11:39 am

I have been trying to post a comment or two to stories on the raspberrypi.org front page but it never does anything when I hit the post reply button.

Did I say something wrong?

It's probably the spam filter

Mine went through could be either your IP address if posting from home Internet Provider IP's generally get blocked alot as the person before you that had the IP was not doing nice things with it or the email address you gave or your comment was way out of line. ;)

Hmmm...I tried from two different providers at work and at home. My email address is legit. I don't recall saying anything out of sorts previously. What to do?

There's been a lot of comments on the front poage story, and its really slow to post for some reason. Last one I did took about 2 minutes to get accepted.

There a thread here that's much faster to post to.
