Dear Tim,
Thanks for your reply. No wonder our comments did not show up.
My question is why you have to approve all the comments for the other members.
I know your concern and it is important to moderate the comments. However, it is impossible if you have more than a handful of members posting messages every day. You simply do not have the manpower nor ability to handle the moderation if there are hundreds of blog articles being posted.
Why don't you leave that moderation power to the authors themselves? It makes more sense for me to moderate those comments left for me regarding the article I posted, doesn't it? I definitely do not welcome any nasty message geared toward me after my posting, but at least it is up to me, who wrote the article, to make that decision.
I really appreciate that you set up this platform, and I am so happy to discover your web site. I just want it to become more user-friendly.

P.S. BTW, if you don't delay posting moderated messages for the forum, the chatroom, the photos, nor the shoutbox, why do you only do that for the blogs? That does not make sense to me. :))
Thanks.

Those who wish to add a comment to any blog post should be aware that your comment will not appear immediately. Every comment has to be approved by me first before they can appear. The reason behind this is to avoid misuse by spammers.
The following is the note from that section.
