The comment may have been automatically deleted or I may have manually deleted it because it seemed like it may have violated one of my comment rules.
Probably about 90% of the comments deleted at YouTube or MacMost are due automatic moderation. I don’t even see them. Some word or link or something about your server or connection triggered a spam filter. Without this automatic spam detection I would be overrun with comments to moderate. However, there are also many reasons I may see a comment and delete it myself.
- Looks like spam: If it looks like spam I will delete it. I don’t have time to research and verify, I need to make a decision and move on.
- Off-topic: These make other people and search engines think the video is about something else.
- Repeat questions: If you ask the same question in more than one place, I can’t answer it more than once, and if I leave it unanswered then it looks bad when others think I ignored it.
- Trolling: Sometimes people say something just to get a reaction from me or others. That does not align with my mission to help people.
- False or questionable claims: Sometimes people decide to use the comments section to make false or questionable claims against Apple or someone else. I don’t want that associated with my content. Same if you are trying to push your own agenda by speculating about the future.
- More: I will delete comments that include hate, politics, explicit words, or are confusing or unintelligible. I usually don’t have time to sit back and consider every nuance. If I get the feeling the comment doesn’t belong, I just delete it and move on.
This is probably because you accidentally created two separate accounts.
It is easy to accidentally create a second account if you log in one time with your email address, and another time with the “Continue With Apple” button. Those are separate login methods and would create two separate accounts. The privacy protection you get with “Continue With Apple” prevents Patreon from knowing you are the same person.
Once you are logged into this second new account, you will notice you can’t view the exclusive videos there since that account is not a Club MacMost member. So then you may subscribe with the second account, giving you two paid subscriptions.
Carefully check the email you receive from Patreon and you’ll notice that some go “to” your regular email address and others “to” a different email address, usually a privacy address that comes with using the “Continue With Apple” button.
The solution is to log out and then back into the account you want to get rid of. In your settings with that account, cancel your MacMost membership. Then log out and back into the account you want to keep.
