Puzzled by the apparent inability to post a comment.

I read a story I enjoyed and went to post a comment. For all I could tell, it didn't take, no matter how many times I clicked "Post New Comment". I know the comments are moderated, or at least there is a delay, but there was nothing to indicate that the system had recorded the comment at all. I tried this on two different computers and it acted the same way. Is this the way it works? If so, I just plastered @Djmac1031 's most recent "Jenna" story with a zillion of the same comment.

(Sorry!)

Okay. The system is acting flaky. My question in this forum is now double-posted because the first attempt received no confirmation, nor flipped to the normal forum view.

The story-side comment systems says, "Thanks for the comment" but there's no preview like there used to be.

Keep in mind, too, that Authors can turn Comments off.

I think comments are turned on, as there are three others, most recent three days ago. Never saw a "Thanks for the comment." Weird.

My comments are on. There are three already on the story in question.

LE always takes forever for comments to show up. Maybe just a delay?

They also had Maintenance mode the other day so maybe that was it.

Thanks for trying though

The top fav lists are all wonky and someone else was telling me they didn't seem to be able to leave a comment. Even with the upgrades the site is like a dam that keeps springing leaks they have to pull a finger out of one to plug the new one.
