Sexism among your moderators is getting ridiculous. Articles about tv stations discriminating against women do not allow women to comment.
AOL moderators censor women. We are not allowed to say "*" in a story about *.

THIS HAPPENED TO ME!!!! I called to complain that the last year it seems like all of my political posts where I say ANYTHING liberal or talk about sexism or defends my left of center ideas will get REJECTED FOR NO REASON. I even called and said I want to talk to the operson who decided MY COMMENT violated some dang guidelines when Ive read those guidelines and my comment, IN NO POSSIBLE WAY IN THE UNIVERSE, could have violated the guidelines and the lady said its all just computer generated so there is no human being who moderates any of the comments and I said "well then there dang well should be since my comments keep being rejected again, FOR NO REASON!! I'm SO careful about the guidelines I'll even put in symbols for any words I think it might reject my comment for-there was an article about school dress code and I was livid and said that "talking about it in this manner is what leads to r@pe culture" because I didnt want them to have an excuse to reject my comment but it was still rejected!!! I called to ask where to complain about this and apparently there is no where to copmplain to except these ghost town blogs where aol staff probably doesnt even care to read!!! AOL you aren SEXIST AND YOUR ROBOTS WHO DECIDE WHICH COMMENTS ARE REJECTED CLEARLY MUST BE RIGHT WING OTHERWISE I THINK YOURE LYING ABOUT NOT HAVING ANY HUMANS MODERATING COMMENTS! ALSO WE SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO REQUEST THAT A REJECTED COMMENT BE LOOKED AT BY AN ACTUAL HUMAN AND THEY HAVE TO TELL US EXACTLY WHAT WE SAID THAT VIOLATED ANY STUPID GUIDELINES!!

I can go to other forums and talk about how stupid AOL moderators have become. This makes your forum less valuable.

AOL seems intent on continuing the dumb attitudes of discriminating against women.

And if I make a point, your moderators become commenters to tell me to go elsewhere. Your moderators allow others to make insulting comments toward me, but I cannot make comments that have nothing violating your community guidelines. Nothing.

So while this topic of older women is being discussed, the AOL moderators are making certain that older women may not comment at all.

When an economic downturn occurs, statistics in the past have demonstrated that most of the people laid off are older women.

A story about Don Lemon saying Nikki Haley is past her prime at 51 really should allow women to speak. But tv stations are among the worst to get rid of women at about 45 years of age, while allowing the men to retire at 70 years old with their long noses and bald heads.

Without anything violating community guidelines, the mysogynist AOL moderators will censor female voices. Look at who is left as commenters: mostly men. Very few women. And those women seem mostly to be Republicans. So was it your intent to discourage anybody making comments that do not agree with your conservative perspectives?
