An error occurred while saving the comment Hugh Patterson
commented
I have had a few comments rejected, never a successful appeal, yet I still have literally no idea how they violated the guidelines. I can't correct the issue if I don't know what it is.
Is it a specific word or phrase? I see wanton vitriol posted all the time, but mine routinely get bumped. It's very discouraging.An error occurred while saving the comment Hugh Patterson

Please provide some insight as to why a particular comment gets rejected. I have had a couple. I typically disagree, but I can usually figure out what "probably" was the issue. I recently had one kicked back, and I have no idea what the issue was.
If you don't tell us what was objectionable, we have to guess, and we will probably guess wrong.Hugh Patterson

The inconsistency is a problem for me. Some stories allow comments, others do not.
Lately, when I come across a story that looks somewhat interesting, I immediately scan to the bottom to see if it allows comments. If not, I generally don't bother reading any further.
Knowing that no matter how relevant my input might be is irrelevant does not sit well with me.Hugh Patterson

I occasionally, like today, have comments rejected for violation of the community guidelines. Unfortunately, I rarely know what aspect of the guidelines I violated. Sometimes I don't even know which comment it was. In some cases I can figure that it's the use of a specific word, usually out of context, but for others, I haven't a clue.
If you're going to reject/censor input, at least tell us why.
