"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.

    This gets more ridiculous. I'm trying to post this comment:

    "The story is about a recent contestant, but you show an old pic of Terry Wogan."

    Result?

    "This comment doesn't meet our guidelines"

    ****? It literally won't let me post any version of that comment either.

    In my case somebody was talking about a book and I said couldn't wait to read it and that it was going to be hilarious, then my profile was blocked from commenting. Anything in my comment had any wrong or foul words whatsoever, none. So unfair from MSN not to have the option of explaining why, so I was accused, judged and sent to jail without ever having the chance of defend myself.

    Exactly, what's the use of somebody from MSN posting community guidelines when it's impossible to email or talk to anybody to tell me what was it I did wrong, but they allowed others to post lies over and over.

    Same thing is happening to me and my profile is blocked from commenting when I know and if MSN had bothered to read. my comment, does not have at all any one single word that was offensive or disrespectful. The worse part is they have become like Facebook or worse, censoring and nobody to speak to who would tell me where was my offense, I know there's none.
