I have been a paying customer for years. My husband has paid for us both. And now you keep me from commenting on your blogs.

not an idea but an issue. i was told to use this by an AOL support guy. i edited some things in my user acct.(namely first name and nickname with no issues) now i can't post to conversations on AOL at end of articles. after i write in the box it keeps telling me to "sign up to post". i'm already signed in so what's "sign up" mean?

I have not violated any of the below guidelines as posted;

Community Guidelines
Welcome to AOL Community!
Our community is about connecting people through open and thoughtful conversations. We want our readers to share their views and exchange ideas in a safe space.

In order to do so, we’ve created a simple set of rules that will improve your experience.

Simply put, keep it civil.

Your post will/might be rejected if it contains:

- Spam
- Insults, profanity, incoherent, obscene or inflammatory language and
threats of any kind
- Attacks on the identity of other commenters or the article’s author
- External links
- Images/Gifs

User accounts will/might be blocked if we notice:

- Continuous attempts to re-post comments that have been previously
moderated/rejected
- Racist, sexist, or homophobic comments
- Attempts or tactics that put the site security at risk

So, how can you be a power user?

- Stay on topic and share your passion. Feel free to elaborate to get
your point across.
- ‘Like’ or ‘Dislike’ when you are filled with emotions!
- Protect your community. Use the report tool to alert us when
someone breaks the rules.

Thanks for reading our community guidelines. Don't forget, freedom of speech is not the freedom of reach!

Because many of the comments I have made or attempted to reword in an effort to satisfy your censors are rejected faster than they can be read, I believe I am being blocked from making comments. If so, have the common decency to let me know instead of just continually rejecting my comments with your vague "community guidelines" statement.

quit your fake *** site

Violating our rights to free speech. I cant post something about Jesus Christ (in a positive light). But the articles and posts about black Entitlement and Unaccountability for their own poor statistics are rampant. Whats wrong with you AOL?

Is this some democratic position, to only post what you feel is right?

Quit blocking comments. It appears that your "monitors" or "moderators" have the ability to place an automatic rejection of comments made by members. Every comment I make has been rejected for over a month now. No real explanation why, just a standard violation of community guidelines, and they are so vague that anything can be blocked. I believe that you have enabled account based auto-rejection filters on member accounts. Pretty sad after having had this email address since the early to mid 90's.

the only people you let comment are paid trolls trying to start trouble

Stop censoring black posts and treat all people the same.

Give me back access to posting my thoughts and quit with your censoring of black people speaking their minds. Shameful. This is not good. This is the forth time you did this to me you racist enablers.
You allow white people to say whatever they **** well please and stifle the black voices.

same here all my posts are deleted on AOL news every day for months now and I am not writing anything that offends anyone, never have, I could write "the sky is blue" and it gets deleted, guess I have to cancel my account, how sad after over 25 years

I am being FLAGGED as are my husband and son 3 different screen names and opinions for NO reason on AOL news, I/We don't write anything offensive and ceratianly not worse than the horrible things I see on the News posts, I can write " I agree" to a post and it is down in less than a few senconds, between this and AOL freezing up or shutting down on occasion I see no reason to be paying AOL, very upset and going to cancel my account if I don't get a response

Quit censoring general comments . I agree with making the chat rooms more civil but censoring facts or non-descript statements is ridiculous.
Liberals threaten to kill people (it happened to me) or they say crude and vile things and you let them go by.. but I use a word like INCITE and I get REJECTED.... How is that fair and equal on any scale

1. have been AOL customer since 2005 or so
2. never banned for any reason, before now
3. never curse or threaten__stay on topic, etc.
4. I am anti-racist, which may be unpopular on your comment board
5. A bias,threatened PRO-racist monitor would block by my comments
6. I am guessing THAT is why I have been banned from commenting for a month, so far.
7. If I am no longer free to express my opinion, I will drop AOL and go elsewhere
8. Please, inform me one way or the other ASAP. Thank you

READ THE POST THAT YOU GUYS HATE,,,sad...

I routinely post sources to back up my comments and those comments are now deleted by AOL as being against policy. Why is that?

They allow attacks on our President, his family, and employees!! When I try to defend him and them I'm BLOCK?? No vulgar language or attacks on other AOL users....I have printed every example!!

Anyone else notice that if AOL describes someone’s comments as controversial, it’s likely a conservative? In this venomously politically correct climate, if anyone dares utter truth, it is immediately taken out of context or viciously attacked. And AOL is quick to parrot the attack!!!!!

Who decided I can write ***** but not K**ilt without violating community standards?

stop censoring my comments that are not foul or any pics attached,, just my opinion, because it doesn't fit you ideology.
