It's been discussed before. But it's pretty annoying when 40/50 comments are approved, and yours is one of the first five on the article, so obviously the author saw it and didn't approve it.

I'd much rather figure out how to turn off the "feature" that requires me to click a button to show unapproved posts.

Repeated annoying commentary with stupid puns, or occasional quality journalistic articles they can use for free.

You have to be followed by Jalopnik... Generally if you catch a post early and ask nicely, they will ungrey you. Or just keep posting good comments and hope you get noticed that way.

I just emailed a bunch of the staff and asked. They took care of me in about 5 mins.

Yup. It's like the "cool kids club" in High school.

I've tried catching a post early, and making an intelligent comment. Still grey, and then some stupid comment that's really just a picture gets ungreyed....Hmmmmm.

One-off posts can be ungreyed if someone stars it, but then the next time they post it will still be grey. You have to be followed to be perma-ungrey.

I asked Patrick George on a weekend post and he did it right away.

I've mostly given up on the FP because of it.

I got followed by "Jalopnik", I think that's what it is.

when I went from non-grey to grey for whatever reason I just stopped commenting all together. NO more CYDKA for you FP! I think they got mad at me because I kept posting articles to Oppo way before they made it to the FP and I would post on the FP the link to the Oppo one. Anyways, I'm just slowly coming back now.
