A serious question to reds that is irritating many of us.

Apex Citavista··3 votes·4,165 views

Sooo I want to know why is it that I can post something in a topic, have it be kinda related to the topic(maybe not 100% but atleast 50% related). And when I go back to check, my comment is gone?

I've reposted it, checked again later, and my comment was gone again. It was not rude, it was not mean, it was me literally asking a simple question, that only needed a yes or no answer.

I got no notification that my comment/s were removed, or that they violated any of the boards rules of use.(Of which I can pretty much guarantee that it did not because it was an actual question)

So why does this happen? Is it a Rioter deleting my comments and not informing me, or is it a glitch with the boards?

I'd also like to note that this only happens when I post a reply to a Rioters comments on a discussion.

Edit: Forgot to mention, the reason why I said "many of us" in the thread title, is because I've seen many people wondering the same thing, and never gotten a response. So any Red please respond, because we all deserve an answer. Please and Thank you. :)

Anytime a comment or discussion is deleted, the delete process automatically sends a notification to your inbox

Are you sure your content is deleted? If it is, are you sure there is no notifications?

Just want to help out here :D

Apparently other people can see my comments there, though I can't. No notification or anything. So it looks like there might be some kind of glitch. Just under this, a guy has actually posted my previous comments, and I went and looked through, and I still can not see them myself.

what happens if you click on your own name to go to your profile page, and then click to show your comments. Can you access it from there?

I went through it this way just now, and when I hit "go to comment" my whole internet froze. Restarted my computer, tried it again, and it took me there, and my comment now appears to me.

This is weird. 0_o

oh no that doesn't sound good! Are you using any weird addons for your browser? I'm glad it's showing up for you now though D:

I'd be happy to double check that it's not on our end if you wouldn't mind letting me know your browser and operating system!

I don't use any addons or anything. This computer is pretty much just for LoL so it only has the basics really.

As for browser I'm just using google chrome, and windows 8.

I doubt it's fully on your end, maybe just a weird combination of circumstances.

And thank you for the help by the way. :) We(the users) really do appreciate you guys here.

They dont give a damn i tried several times too with a simple question and my threads also were deleted... =(

I don't think it's that they don't give a damn about us haha. I actually think they care about us quite a lot, and work hard for us. especially for a F2P game. But there is bound to be problems, but I do think they are working hard for us. :)

What did you ask?

A Red posted a thread about the updates that are coming in 5.2 So I said something similar to "I've not seen anything about 5.1 yet, and I've tried looking. did you guys make a post about 5.1 as well, or just 5.2 because of the DFG removal being a big deal?" Might be paraphrasing a bit, because I can't remember the exact wording.

You mean this comment:

[{quoted}](name=Truncatis Guard,realm=NA,application-id=3ErqAdtq,discussion-id=GinIa17t,comment-id=000e00040004,timestamp=2015-01-14T05:40:18.762+0000)

I have not seen anything about 5.1 anywhere yet, and I've been trying to find it. maybe I'm just missing it? Do you by chance have a link that would show the general ideas of what will be happening this patch? (of which I'm hoping would be a slight nerf to jungle minions because since 4.20 jungle diversity is absolute trash, and only like 15% of champions can jungle, and only 5 of them can do it very well)

And this comment?

I just went and checked through that section, and I still can't see my own comments. Though apparently it seems that you can.

In large threads with many replies, the comment chains get progressively longer and longer and it becomes more difficult to track who's replying to who. In addition, because of the sheer volume of replies, comments with less upvotes become hidden and the "show more" button has to be clicked to see them.

In your case, you have to click on the "show more" button under Lee Dark's post with 7 upvotes. Then you have to scroll WAAAY down to find your comment.

Basically, the larger and older a thread, the more irrelevant and invisible your comment becomes. People won't see it because its hidden under "show more", and even when you click that it becomes a convoluted mess. Your only hope is to directly reply to a Rioter, because hopefully they get and read their updates. Otherwise its a guarantee nobody else sees your post.

TL;DR - Reddit style commenting sucks ass for large threads, which is proven by reddit itself; the large subreddits become garbage overrun with quick jokes/puns/memes/shitposts, OR require extremely heavy moderation to stay afloat.

I went through all the several hundred comments on it, and my own comments don't show up for me. I even tried switching it to chronological order to see if that changed it, and still can't see my own comments in that thread.

Click your name in the posts quotes that I posted, and it should take you to the comments.

I tried it the way that FrostHaven wrote out, glitched my internet the first time, then it worked, and NOW my comments show up to me in that thread.

This is a weird issue, with an even weirder fix. haha
