Unable to post Comments in the MSN News Section

Two other people have asked the question as to why their Comments in the News Section of MSN do not post, they just remain in the Comment box.  I'm having the same problem and it started about 4 or 5 days ago.  Before that I was able to post comments.  I see 2 other people are complaining about the same issue.  I'm on a MAC and using Safari (which has not been a problem in the past).  Is it possible that MSN has put a BLOCK on our accounts denying us the ability to comment? Is it possible that MSN has put a BLOCK on our accounts to stop our ability to post? If that's the case we should be notified.

It appears that, evidently, MSN has no reason (idea) as to why this is happening and no resolution.

    I've cleared my cooking and old browsing history.  Does not help.

    I will say my inability to both post and reply to comments on news articles on the MSN web page has nothing to do with my browser. You see I have an iMac, MacBook Air and a Samsung Android cellphone and I'm unable to post or comment from any of these devices and that is why i suspect a block has been placed on my account.  MSN needs to be honest about whether on not they have put blocks on accounts.  Microsoft should say YES we have imposed a block or NO we have not and stop sending inquiries back to the community for answers.

    As a matter of fact I have the latest versions of Safari because I have downloaded the latest version of Apple's operating system Yosemite and on my cell there's no excuse for this problem.

    Hi,

    You can try to clear the old browsing history and cookies of the browser and then try to check the issue.

    Ok. went to Firefox. Same problem but now when I try to post a comment it says "Posting as******(and it gives my name) but still doesn't post my comment. 

    I failed to say that I did change my security email address because I closed my Yahoo account and because I had to do that I'm penalized by not having access to my MSN account for 30 days (what kinda stupidity is that?).  However, I was still able to post Comments even though I changed my information up until, what is now 6 days ago.

    I get Notifications on my Facebook account as though someone is responding to a post I attempted to post, but when i go to the news article, there's no post from me to be found. 

    It needs to work on getting the bugs out of this Website makeover.

    Hi,

    There is problem while loading new MSN website usign the Safari browser. Make sure that you have latest version of the Safari installed on your MAC computer.

    As a work around you can try to open new MSN website on a different browser and check if you are able to post comments.
