    Hello. While we cannot speak about specific comments, policy interpretations, or actions action in relation to specific comments outside of with their original poster, we seek to apply the Yahoo Community Guidelines as evenly, fairly, and objectively as possible.

    The moderation on your Yahoo News comments is a joke. I posted a reply to another post and my entire reply was "Thank you." You rejected the comment and said it violated your community guidelines. I can send you the email or a screenshot of the email you sent me if you don't believe it. Once again you prove why you are a bunch of Yahoos and always will be.

    I hope this will get to your developers who create and maintain the comments sections of your news stories. The Comments section is a great idea, but it is poorly designed. Your developers are using client-side script to load the comments and they are swamping my computer. I have a moderately powerful Dell laptop. If it's a problem for my computer, it's a problem for most people. On a regular story it works pretty well. But on a story with a lot of comments the scripts try to load so much incoming data that the page locks up and never finishes loading and I can never post a reply. I watch my Task Manager in Windows and the browser Memory reading goes from about 1.5 GB normal to about 3.5 GB when it's trying to load comments from this story (link below). You need to re-design that process to be less burdensome on the processor. Another problem is that I stay logged into Yahoo all day, but after about 10 minutes of not reading Comments it logs me out and I have to reload the page to be logged in. And another problem is the Comments section usually doesn't load at all the first time and the Retry button does nothing. I have to reload the page to see comments. I have tried this page in multiple different browsers: Chrome, Edge, and Firefox and the same problem happens in them all. The page with no comments load OK, but with comments it's a slog.
