I just posted a new Ask Me question, with more inside planned.. yet when I click on the thread, I do not see the Post a Comment stuff at the botton. I am logged in, and the post a comment fields appear for every single thread except mine... how do I post my more inside?

Is the comment box there but the buttons are missing? Have had a similar problem the past few months, not now. Even had after posting a comment parts of the text were missing until a few minutes latter they fully appeared. Memory helped where the "preview" "post" buttons were yet did find it mind boggling and chalked up as a system delay.

No, the entire thing was missing, as if I wasn't logged in... but it seems to have magically materialized of course, now that I posted the meta thread. I'm perfectly sane, I tell you. SANE! SANE! SANE! SANE! SA-

Are you sure it isn't there? I have had that same feeling before, then just realized I didn't scroll far enough. It's really far down at the bottom of the screen.

I was certain I scrolled all the way down, because yeah I saw the long set of ads on the side... I got to the part that said

Of course maybe I'm insane... it seemed to happen only on certain few AskMe threads, and fixed itself in a little while. You can delete this thread now I guess, sorry all!
My brain has been really fuzzy and confused ever since I listened to that banana phone song, got it stuck in my head, and listened to it for nearly 4 hours in a row... if I turn it off, it just keeps going in my head.. help..

My head really really hurts.. if I stop posting in ten hours... don't touch my body.
posted by ac at 8:02 PM on May 7, 2004


don't touch my body.

you can put that particular concern to rest, son.

ac - I don't think you're crazy. I have a somewhat similar problem. If I try to make a post to AskMe using Mozilla, I get the post field, with the preview and spell check buttons; when I preview, I get only the preview, but no post button. So I can't post to AskMe using Mozilla, I have to switch to IE.
