Kinja's Eating My Posts [UPDATED]

I just had 3 replies fail to post. On both Jalopnik and Oppo. When I hit “publish”, I am given a “your comment published successfully” message, and the comment displays. But it’s not there when I refresh the page, and it’s not listed among my “discussions” from my profile page. It’s like it didn’t publish at all.

I tried typing up my comments again, and they seemed to publish just fine, but when I click the timestamp (which should refresh the page as a permalink), it takes me to a “404 / Post not found” page. So even the permalink is broken.

It doesn’t matter whether I’m responding to the original post or replying to another commenter.

I’m using Win10 and Chrome. Anybody else having this issue? (If you are, I guess I probably won’t hear from you. I just tried to star Flynorcal’s “Internal Server Error” post, and it’s not showing up among my recommendations.)

UPDATE 4:30pm EST: It seems to be fixed now. Posts, comments, and recommendations. (I was just about to try Firefox, too.) My invisible posts are displaying now, and some of them are double posts because I tried to submit them a second time. I have deleted another version of this post, but I can’t delete my doubled comments. Oh well.

LOL I saw that before you did.

“post save failed”

EDIT: now it’s giving me a “401” error

EDIT: Ok, now it’s working.

Hey Urambo, could you do me a favor and “dismiss” a reply i did on your post yesterday? I was pissed off at the dude and shouldn’t have lashed out on him on the interwebs.

BTW, that’s pretty clever, contacting me through this post to keep our conversation under the radar. It’s the closest thing Kinja has to a private messaging system.

Thanks, It’s hard to have a private conversation. I’ve tried deleting it myself but no dice. Delayed regret from posting doesn’t work with kinja unfortunately.

Well, if you ever feel the need to vent like that, feel free to stop on by Oppositelock. I’m sure they’ll grant you authorship if you ask. Rants about our daily commutes are a popular topic here and always make for interesting conversations. You can even blur out the car’s plate or business name prior to posting, if you’re worried about calling them out.

Awesome, thank you.
