Yahoo Finance Message Boards Far Too Restrictive
The Yahoo! Finance message boards are far too restrictive. I am a scientist commenting on Biotech companies and nearly any time I type a multi-sentence, intelligent post, my entry is rejected. It is beyond frustrating to spend time putting together something worthwhile without a hint of inappropriateness, just to have it rejected. Users of the boards regularly complain that they are experiencing the same. I guarantee you are walking away from dominating this segment by using such a frustrating, over-restrictive platform.

I have used Yahoo Finance for years and it has become more frustrating than useful! The message board has been taken over by an insane AI machine that does not recognize normal speech or catch phrases. If I type the word ********, the dumb AI machine believes I am commenting on someone's mental health. When I type the word st**id describing Yahoo's AI comment machine's actions, the comment gets rejected! I appreciate the attempt to restrict hate messages, racial slurs, calls for violence etc., but the AI machine is way to simple minded and rejects too many worthy comments!! ****, this comment would have been rejected because of the words, ********, st**ip, simple minded, and ****. I'll be surprised if I see this comment in the future......
