I was posting comments on blogs like the hill and Crooks and  Liars though them but mostly the hill. All of a sudden I had run ins with extreme conservative commentors who did not like my comments. This one poster called jdove27 started first claiming to be a troll finder  for the hill and singled me out as a troll. Just after this i noticed that gradually my post were being deleted and the conservative replies stayed. And there were two posters who used the "N" word to me in post they made. to this day i know one of them is still posting there. And on this past tuesday i tried posting and found out that i had been banned from posting by disqus.They had gone back 9 days and not one but every comment I made over that time was marked as spam. i contacted disqus and they said it was the modfrator for the hill that was responsible. so I tried posting on both Crooks and Liars and the Daily Caller both on disqus and giot the same message that I had been banned by disqus so I knew they were lying and trying to pass the buck.

Disqus Violates Commentators Rights

AUTHOR: Santiago - (United States)

POSTED: Friday, July 20, 2018

Yes, there are many Disqus Moderators abusing their authority by removing member's commentators comments, not because they violate Disqus guidelines but out of spite and malice--just to get back at the member for whatever reason they may have. They don't realize they are violating people's civil right to freedom of speech.

Disqus Allows anyone to ban you internet wide

AUTHOR: dell temple - (United States of America)

POSTED: Tuesday, January 31, 2017

I have used Disgus on a couple of my websites in the past but no longer.  I have also commented on articles on various websites.  Recently I found that each and every comment I make, no matter what site I'm on, is removed.  I went to Disqus and found that every comment I make is flagged as spam, and I have never posted spam or anything resimbling span in my life.  But that's not the worst part.  It seems to me now that anyone can flag your comment as spam and Disqus treats you as a spammer without any recourse.  I went to their site a few times and there isn't even a way to contact them as far as I could see. 

Now each comment that is removed you can see on the Disqus site and each has a button that reads This is not Spam.  Clicking the button says they will look into the matter and that's the end.  Nothing ever happens and you remain banned.  Just yesterday I made a couple of comments on CanadaFreePress and after being shown for a few minutes (at least on my screen) they all vanished.  I contacted a person with CanadaFreePress who found one of my messages in their trashbox, and he felt that I had deleted it.  I told him no, that I did not but that Disqus did and is doing so with every comment I make.

It seems Disqus is running on autopilot and no one with Disqus cares about the end user therefore I am through with Disqus.  I'm almost tempted to get on sites that use Disqus and start flagging everyones comments as spam.  Of course if I did that - my IP address would be totally banned, something that should happen to people who falsely report comments as spam when they are not.

Like I said, I have used Disqus as a commenting tool on a couple of my websites, but after this I will never use or endorse that awful site.

The original complainant on this is a liberal and complaining of conservatives causing his/her problem with Disqus, well I'm a conservative and can tell you it makes no difference - sorry people who do not like what you have to say can flag anyone and get their voice shut down if a website uses Disqus.
