I have also had a message come up more than once, displaying in red:
Missing Posting Authority preparedwombat
Edited to add: the above problem happened just a few minutes ago when trying to comment on a different post. But obviously I was able to comment here. Hmmmm......
Second edit: Tried several times and finally got the other comment to post. Maybe it's just a fluke, but the comment finally worked only after I had removed an emoticon.
Thanks for the report. A lot of users reported the same issue, but then it seemed to have resolved itself after a short amount of time. I reported it to the dev team so they are aware.
Same happened to me. Hard to generate posts (income) when you can't reply. Or put up a post. 🐓🐓
