Why is my comment hidden

1 pointajjahs2 comments

I made an account and wrote one comment. When i click on the thread without an account/ check my account without beeing logged in, the comment is not there. (neither under the post, nor in under account comments)

when i am logged in i see it as normal.

It does not say anything about it beeing flagged or something

Is this a bug? Or if not where can i find out why it is like this

(i am new to this website)

From the FAQ[0]:

> Dead posts aren't displayed by default, but you can see them all by turning on 'showdead' in your profile.

>If you see a [dead] post that shouldn't be dead, you can vouch for it. Click on its timestamp to go to its page, then click 'vouch' at the top. When enough users do this, the post is restored. There's a small karma threshold before vouch links appear.
