I comment on aol news stories, and they wont get posted1
When I post a comment on an news article, they are only posted for half a second and then disappear, what can be done? AOL told me to contact you, that you could help.

Keep up the great work of censoring all my comments and puking your Socialist comments. You still will not win.
Pathetic !

I am unable to comment on any articles.
This has been an ongoing problem for over a year and I need it to be resolved.
Today when I tried liking or disliking any comment at the end of an article AOL immediately logs me off, I tried it several times and it is becoming frustrating.
I am a 20 year loyal customer of AOL and If this issue cannot be fixed I will leave AOL.
Please repair this ISSUE... -

Lots of crass bordering on crude comments about Harris and Biden on here yet when I get a little adamant I get the community standards warning.

Let all people be able to comment on news articles. Stop the B.S. and do the right thing. I guess AOL don't care about you

Open discussion is important to America's democracy. If we only allow the ideas and beliefs of only a certain group that is not democratic. We might as well be in a dictatorship. There will always be some who don't like a post because they don't agree. That doesn't mean they should be allowed to censure it by reporting it. Stop censuring the discussion.

Nothing like writing a largely factual comment with no foul language to have it be removed. If you're going to require comments to toot rainbows out a unicorns back side, you should at least highlight what you consider to be offensive when it's written, so a person can choose to alter the post. As part of the media, you should be championing free speech, not censoring - provided foul language is not used.

HERE WE GO AGAIN! AOL REJECTED THE FOLLOWING CIVIL RESPONSE SIMPLY BECAUSE I USED THE LABEL "***" IN A CONTEXTUAL MANNER... EVEN THOUGH THE LABEL WAS USED AND REMAINED IN THE COMMENT I WAS RESPONDING TO! I DID REPOST MY SAME COMMENT AFTER DISGUISING THAT LABEL AND THE REPOST REMAINED... SUCH HYPOCRISY TO YOUR CLAIM THAT OUR VOICES "ARE IMPORTANT!"
Your point, Chris...
Doesn't need to be "taught!" It's public record!What apparently does need to be taught... Because so many seem to be so (intentionally?) unaware... although it also is public knowledge...
Is that the Democratic perspective on slavery of the 1800s...
Was replaced with a philosophy of civil and equal rights as far back as the 1950s... 70 years ago!That change prompted racists to abandon the Democratic Party, and switch to the Republican Party... Which has since become the stanchion of the KKK and racial division!

You are being hypocritical in your criteria in the comments, because I am being arbitrarily rejected and feel you have grossly violated my freedom of speech and I see I am not the only one.Shame, shame, shame on you. We are not in Russia nor China. This is America supposedly..What double standards and hypocrisy! Vous n'etes qu'un bande de fachos. Jullie bent een bande hypocrieten.Ik ben helemaal teleurgesteld met uwe zogezegde organizatie.

I have been on AOl almost since its inception and paid for your services. I have made a few posts on political articles where I have tried to be careful about not calling people names and trying to bring us together yet it seems like my posts are sometime removed or need approval. I do appreciate that you have a process but I'm not sure it's working well.......I have read your posting policy

I don't use profanity, no name calling, nothing. I should have a right to make a comment but AOL won't let me. They won't help me fix this problem, they won't do anything and don't care... WHY AOL???
Fix this. -

I think that all viewers should be given the opportunity to comment on all of your headline stories.

I have the same problem. AOL don't care

Why doesn't AOL unblock names so they can make comments. So many names are on a block list and so all they can say is we don't follow guidelines.. It all lies and they won't help you

AOL has to fix this problem, especially when I follow all community guidelines for a comment. Its rediculous when they keep saying I'm not and then it gets rejected. AOL won't or can't fix it...WHY????
