"This comment does not meet community guidelines" - so annoying!

Can someone give a detailed explanation of what exactly we can and can't write in the MSN comments? Totally innocuous and inoffensive replies are frequently denied by the automoderation because "This comment does not meet community guidelines", and you are given no clue as to what specifically was wrong. I had to give up replying to one person because no matter what I tried it just wouldn't let me do it.

    Or best way is to go to other news sites and post in other communities.

    I wouldn't want angry posts about people's feelings with Ukraine and U.S politics but considering something as present and universal like the internet, there is just an inherent risk that someone may do that. And they do. But I understand that it's only right that private companies can still decide what they want to post. I think that my comment was along the lines of how with gas (at that time), being over $4/gallon and that with milk (still) being over $3 gallon that I felt that Biden <political content removed>

    But Microsoft just would have found that a word you used triggered their bots.

    It just seems like a lot of steps. But you say that it works, and I may have to go that route if there is something I am really determined to comment on.

    Best way is to write your post in notepad, then paste it 1 word at a time in the channel, find alternatives for individual words that make the trip. then reconnect and post. looks weird and frustrates the site, but it works.
