I logged in for the first time ever to comment on an article in Microsoft Start. I got a message that I had violated community guidelines. If I've never once tried to comment on anything Microsoft, how can this be? There was no explanation of where this came from.

    I WAS BANBED TOO! RIGHT AFTER I opened my account?

    One strange,reason I was given was the site,owner was banning any YouTube Comments? Tbis made no sense to me? Since I had found the content on Google which had switched to MSN and an article appeared? I wanted to comment so openeded a Microsoft account?

    Tben was immediately banned and in violation of their Standards?

    That's exactly how I found out too! I've been using Microsoft's browsers for as long too. There is definitely something amiss here!

    I just logged into my account via browser profile an was immediately informed with today's date on the notification that I have been banned indefinitely for violating community standards. I've never commented on a single item !! Like ever with my registered email and user name. What has happened? There seems to be a definite problem with the reporting structure. I request to see what evidence this ban was based on, because I don't think it is legitimate.

    Now I am surfing around thinking that Microsoft thinks I am some kind of tyrant and this false accusation has me feeling lost and lacking trust in the process. What a way to take my online experience using Microsoft and Edge and throw it into the ditch. Look at all these others that are reporting this also. Is no one checking into this?? or Cares?? Seems someone or some algorithm did once before in order to ban me....erroneously I might add!
