Youtube Deleting comments?

[TheSwedishTraveler]

I have seen that when looking at the dashboard, I can see that a video has 0 comments, but when I look at the video, I see all of the comments....
I notice that some comments (that I even replied to) goes into the spam section as well.

Hi,

I have a question.

Today I uploaded my YouTube video as I always do and one of my first subscribers commented in my video, I replied, everything was normal, but later when I go back to my video analytics shows the number of comments of the video, however if you go to the video directly there is no comments they were all deleted for no reason, does anyone knows about what could that be?? because the comments were nothing bad or even spam...

Any ideas??

Probably a glitch, I've had this exact same thing happen. My most popular video has hundreds of comments, and I'd gotten a new one, so went to go check it, and to my utter horror I saw there were no comments. I thought "Oh the comments must be being filtered" in some way, but I checked again, and no comments whatsoever. The hundreds of comments from my video had all completely disappeared.

I checked one of my other videos, only to find the same thing. At this point though I started to panic a little less and thought "Well perhaps it's all of YouTube", so I checked another video outside of my channel, and unfortunately all their comments were still there and intact, so I began to think that my comments really were gone. I got as far as posting about it on the Google forums about YouTube, but by the time I was done with my post, the comments were back as if they'd never left.

So I suspect your situation is similar and just a glitch. Check back a little later and see if they're back

I had this glitch on my channel one time, annoyingly it was on a Storytime video and somebody replied "Did this really happen?" I replied to tell them yes, it did, but now the comment's gone and I always wonder if the person who posted it thinks that I've deleted the comment because I don't want to be found out! Haha.

I get the same glitchy stuff from time to time... especially with "linked comment" ones. Sometimes can't reply, reload the page, works fine. One comment, which I could tell was from a human with a valid question pertaining to a video, disappeared within 5 minutes of being posted and never came back... Fun times.

Check the area where comments are held for approval.
I've had a few that YouTube have filtered. Once you approve them they can be seen by anyone and add to the comment count

I'm not that big so I'm not getting many comments, but I do however sometimes have trouble commenting back myself or liking certain comments.

It looks like I submitted my comment or pressed like at first. But if I reload the page it's gone. So it seems to be glitchy at times.

I'm not big either that's why I freaked out so much, I don't want that my subscribers think I delete them or something, was so odd

It could also have been deleted (bot) accounts.

Nope, I still can see their account[DOUBLEPOST=1457470788,1457468078][/DOUBLEPOST]Sadly, they still haven't come back and a day has pass already

I'm guessing glitch as well. You should check in a while to see if the comments have returned.

Nope, all the comments are still not there. That's the first time this happens, hopefully the last..

I just had a similar scare, but it was with my OWN comments. I clicked on a video to reply to a new comment when I found that all my replies to people were not there. I never delete my own comments, so I freaked out, haha. I when through the video manager and saw that there was a higher number of comments than shown visibly, and when I clicked on it so see the comments that way, I found my replies. Super strange, but at least there [sort of?] still there xD

Seems YT has been a little glitchy lately.
