I posted a comment on a recent story about Adobe software and it only shows up if I'm logged in!

I don't support sites that do this. If you don't like my opinion then just respond with your own. Don't be a baby and censor me.

Goodbye HN!

You're not very good at this are you ?

""Photoshop is the only Mac program I've seen that uses "setup" and "uninstall" paradigm, two idiocies from the Windows world." I guess you hate apt and yum too? Gee, having a list of programs that are installed is really lame. Right, because the Mac makes so much more sense. The dmg files that you download have to be mounted (lame). Inside the dmg, you _might_ find a folder, a bunch of files, a single file or a setup program. You just never know. Then when you're done figuring that out and you finally get your program "installed" on your Mac, you have to unmount the dmg. Windows is much simpler: Download setup.exe, double click, Next, Next, Finish. (originally posted by user: wizlb)"

that comment ?

Shows up just fine, whether you're logged in or not doesn't seem to matter.

I suggest you look into whether something is caching your web traffic, not to start firing random shots at websites that you have just joined.

There is a "delay" number in your profile that says how many minutes elapse after you post, before your comment shows up to anyone else.

If you want to set it to 0, go ahead.

I guess the idea is that if you post something, er, stupid, you can edit it and save face.

Delay is 0 by default, unless my account is an anomaly.

Having been on other online forums, I consider this a feature rather than a bug.

It is also possible for users to delete their own posts if they write too hastily. That can improve the tone of discussion here.
