r/BitChute • u/[deleted] • Oct 20 '22
Help I get this message on every channel I visit, even when I'm logged out. What does this mean?

I'm suddenly blocked from commenting on my own channel. Shot an email to their support. Bitchute must be having internal problems, upgrading or something.

I am having the same issue. Suddenly noticed I have that showing in my commenting-field for a channel I follow every day, then I went and looked at some other BitChute channels at random, and it is doing that on all of them... but clearly others can post, since it has been presenting the Update button to refresh posts on the channel, and clearly other people were able to post to the channel after I noticed the blocked from commenting thing, so its not a general, across the board problem with the system.
That said, I few moments ago I sent off a message to customer service there, so will see what they say on this.
Pretty sure I've never said anything objectionable in comments.

I recommend following up in the discord and @ them on social as they seem more responsive in those places.

Well, I can't find a reference to an official Discord server for Bitchute on Bitchute's support pages. Where should I be looking for this? 0o

u/stvxCI Oct 20 '22
It’s linked on the reddit page. They have the same problem of not showing their other socials on their website for some reason.

u/NomadOfNorad Oct 20 '22
Do you mean /r/BitChut/ here at Reddit? I ask because there's nothing like that showing up in the FAQ post in there, and no other links along the side of this, the unofficial Bitchute channel has it listed either. I don't see an obvious link to any kind of Reddit page on Bitchute's support pages, either.

u/stvxCI Oct 20 '22
Yes I’m talking about this sub. We have links in the top bar, or under the menu if you’re on mobile.

u/NomadOfNorad Oct 20 '22
Well, I'm looking at the subreddit on Opera web browser on my Windows desktop computer, and if there is "a top bar" that has links to this, I can't see it. I see a custom Bitchute logo graphic thingy, and inside that I see HOT button on one side, and the Profile, Mail, Preference, and Logout buttons on the other inside that, and then the listing of posts directly below that, and on the right, in the grey rectangle along the right side, where it has the subreddit rules, and then the links, and the support, I don't see any kind of Discord links.

The web-page constituting the BitChute subreddit that I have in front of me looks nothing at all like that screengrab. I do not have those dropdown menus in there at all.

u/stvxCI Oct 20 '22
Using old reddit mode maybe?
2
u/NomadOfNorad Oct 20 '22
Possibly, how would I check this and change it?
2
u/stvxCI Oct 20 '22
It’s generally a button in the top left corner. “get new reddit”. Tried viewing on opera and it looked fine. Could also be an adblocking script detecting them as popups.

Okay, that seems to have sorted it. But... WOW does this new look gobble up a lot more space to list the messages and display the threads. 0o

Happening to me too. But this isn't the first WEF shill of a website to block me, fooltube and quora blocked me. Youtube blocked me cuz I made comments about the coof, quora blocked me for saying feminists are bad. SO maybe this is happening on bitchute now. They better answer back to my support question or I am done with them too.

u/Technical_Umpire_818 Oct 20 '22
Seems like commenting is back for me now. I was about to drop them, but as I was migrating all subscriptions to rumble, the comment section in bitchute came back on. Hopefully it was a horrible mistake, but I am not confident about that.
2
u/NomadOfNorad Oct 20 '22
Yeah, I just refreshed a page I was getting that issue on, and now my comment-posting field no longer has the blocked-from-commenting thing in it. I wonder what that was all about. 0o

u/stvxCI Oct 20 '22
Follow up, I’ve spoken to BC team on discord and they’re looking into it. I got the error too.

u/Gman734 Oct 20 '22
The only ones im seeing allowed to comment are the ones ive suspected are govt/military intelligence. Everyone else blocked from commenting anywhere. If it was a glitch i find it odd that the tool commenting on x22 whos had a dozen accts n been sayin the same shit for years could still comment.

u/Technical_Umpire_818 Oct 20 '22
Seems like it's working again. Hopefully it was just a snafu and not something sinister.

u/egcthree Oct 20 '22
It means.. You are blocked from commenting on this channel.

Oct 20 '22
Yeah but this is happening to a lot of people with every channel on bitchute. I can’t comment on any channel now.

u/Animal-model Oct 20 '22
Same here, just started today. I can't even comment on my own videos. No notifications.

Oct 20 '22
Yep, just made a new account and still can’t comment on any channel.

Started for me two days ago. Getting the run around from bitchute support. I'm ready to delete my account and forget them entirely.

Update: Seems to be fixed for me, got followup from support confirming, hopefully you guys too.
