COMMENT SECTION: COMMENTS BEING REMOVED BY AOL

You can't say "CHIT" with an "S", but you can access all the **** you could ever want. Go figure THAT out. & they insist on removing my posts because they seem to disagree with my opinion.

    I have been an AOL customer for 24 years. Never had this problem. Would like answers from AOL.

    First Posted 6-28-21Whenever I go to post a comment about an article, the system immediately rejects my comment. No explanation is given. Most of my posts from last week, if not all have been removed. Everything was working Friday morning 6-25, and then when I went back on line that afternoon every post I had made was gone and the Note was :This comment has been removed. I don't understand. Normally, when I make a comment that is questionable, the system warns me to change or restate it. No warning, just wiped me out. I am a veteran and a patriot. I feel like my speech is being silenced because I am conservative. Please correct, or at minimum. provide me an explanation for this issue. Thank you. Mike Plumley

    I've been banned too. And I've called to ask why, was told someone would call me in 72 hrs. no call.

  • Ralph Atkins commented  ·   ·  Report

    AOL is probably correct in their decision based on what you have posted here. I'd ban you too.

  • KEVIN HERTZ commented  ·   ·  Report

    What have you been posting?
    1. The Election was Stolen?
    2. that Jesus will put Trump into office? Q

    An Opinion is based on Evidence. There are no such things as "alternative facts"

  • Bill Heisler commented  ·   ·  Report

    I am a longtime paid subscriber to AOL and someone at AOL who' s political views don't align with mine has set up an automatic rejection of my posts without even reading them. This needs to stop. I am paying for a benefit that I am not receiving. Liberal posts that are really objectionable and at times are laced with profanities are left to stand.

  • Jack Frye commented  ·   ·  Report

    AOL is banning users. Time to drop Comcast cable I guess.

  • Jack Frye commented  ·   ·  Report

    I've been banned by AOL. Time to close my Comcast cable account.

  • JUDITH A. CARLSON commented  ·   ·  Report

    My last post was rejected and I DID NOT BREAK ANY RULES REGARDING POSTING! This occurs far too often! Who are the censors - 90 year old senile people who don't live in 2021 but are stuck in 1950 or righteous ultra-religious zealots who won't allow things that don't fit their "moral" standards?

  • JUDITH A. CARLSON commented  ·   ·  Report

    I find it frustrating that there are some articles about which people cannot comment. Do you consider some topics too "hot" to allow comments?

  • Christopher Palacios commented  ·   ·  Report

    I posted nothing but "hello AOL"
    and it was rejected. My posts are being rejected due to the fact that I'm a conservative and post conservative views. I don't use unacceptable language. AOL's speech police are out of control.

  • JUDITH A. CARLSON commented  ·   ·  Report

    My posts never include bad or inappropriate language, etc., my IP is easily traceable, and I don't include images. Yet my posts are censored. Why?

  • DAVID RIGGALL commented  ·   ·  Report

    I am banned from comments without a reason. I am not one to cuss, belittle people just say what I think and I am banned?

  • Kathryn Calder commented  ·   ·  Report

    Why am I STILL being banned from commenting, for NO REASON?

  • Raymond Stevens commented  ·   ·  Report

    Why doesn't AOL respond to the question many people ask about how long a comment ban lasts. I would also like that question answered. If I can no longer make comments to news articles I really can't see any point to keeping my account active. So please, show me the simple courtesy of advising me if the ban is permanent or not. Thank you.

    Get rid of fact checkers. They do not listen or read what is really being said. I have copied and pasted most of the information that I have posted from aol own story. Now they block every post. It doesn't make sense.There is no one to complain too.

  • Leonard Dobrzyn commented  ·   ·  Report

    I HAVE A COMPLAINT - I AM A PAYING ACCOUNT. Your news provided by AOL is CENSORING ME PERSONALLY. I know this because I purposely agreed with the article and said it was good, just to see if they would post it, but no matter what I put in, they come back with a standard message that my response 'MAY BE OFFENSIVE TO SOME - DO YOU STILL WISH TO POST IT?' And then they DO NOT POST YOUR ARTICLE... The reason they put the forum on there is so people can post their opinions, either positive or negative, liberal or conservative. But obviously if you don't AGREE with the writer, the CENSOR YOU! This is not right and needs to stop.. If not I will post on feedback, on Gab, on parler, on twitter and every other media that I can how slanted and one-sided AOL has become!!! I have been a customer for over 25 years. Is this how you treat your customers.. I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR BACK FROM SOMEONE ON THIS.
