    Posted: 24 Mar 2010 at 1:56pm

Is anybody else experiencing these issues? Just lately, my youTube comments are not showing up anymore. Usually, I would type the comment, click on "Post Comment", and it would then say,.."Comment Posted". I would then simply refresh the page and I could see my comment. Now this doesn't happen anymore. Google search shows that quite a few users of youTube have the same problem. I haven't accidentally blocked myself either!

However,...I found out that there is one way to view your comment. Go to the bottom of the comments page and select.."Show All". Your comment will be shown but the page is NOT the video page.

Hi Stringbean,

Comments are moderated first before they appear on our YouTube videos - this is not because we want to filter out any negative ones, but simply because there are some very silly commented posted by some YouTube visitors which are effectively "spam" messages. We regularly go through the comments that have been posted and enable the ones that are related to the video, and not the ones that aren't.

SimUK,...thanks for your reply but I wasn't actually referring to Just Flight videos on youTube. However, I do appreciate that some comments will be "Pending" by the makers of their videos. No, I'm talking in general. No comments are showing on any youTube videos. I'm not the only one according to a Google search on the subject but I just wondered how widespread this is.

Im a huge user of YouTube, comment frequently across many different channels, but I have to say I've only noticed it once or twice Confused

And with regards to the makeover, its horrible isn't it.  Many people are complaining about it.

I am getting similar problems.
 
Whenever I try and post a comment on one of my videos, it just says "error"  in red writing next to the comment box!
