"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.

    And - many inappropriate comments are left alone. With some creative spelling, you can post whatever you want to.

    Below are some comments from user "Maynard G.". These were all posted in the last day. I reported these as well as many older ones. Nothing was done.

    Sorry if these offend anyone, but they are apparently OK in the MSN comments.

    So you are OK with leaving the inappropriate comment alone, against the guidelines? Are you Maynard G?

    How would I know if a comment was inappropriate if I didn't read it?

    And, I'm not here to engage with name callers -

    Yes, just completely random words banned from comments. I wonder if it's a consequence of farming the moderation jobs out to <removed>
