 * Everything someone tries to post a comment, this happens. What could be the issue?
   I’d appreciate your help in fixing this. Thank you!
 * You 404’d it. Gnarly, dude.
 * Surfin’ ain’t easy, and right now, you’re lost at sea. But don’t worry; simply
   pick an option from the list below, and you’ll be back out riding the waves of
   the Internet in no time.
 *  Hit the “back” button on your browser. It’s perfect for situations like this!
   
   Head on over to the home page. Punt.

 * **[@danieldickey](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danieldickey/)** – have
   you tried deactivating your plugins and switching to the default theme? That’s
   the first standard troubleshooting step.

 * Yeah, that’s the first thing I tried. I switched to a default theme and deactivated
   all plugins and tried posting a comment and still got 404’d.

 * That’s not what I see on your site – twentytwelve and no plugins?

 * Well no, after it didn’t work I went back to the original theme (thesis). I’m
   going to switch back to twenty twelve with no plugins now.
