| Why do comments, that plainly are not spam, keep getting flagged as spam? | rearly62 | 6/27/12 10:11 AM | Ok I admit it, I am a troll. I troll YouTube videos that have been hijacked by obnoxious individuals who deny the Holocaust happened and refute their arguments using history and science. What I cannot understand is how, as described above, YouTube |

| Re: Why do comments, that plainly are not spam, keep getting flagged as spam? | anmoose | 6/27/12 5:06 PM | I have no plan to wade through the entire battle, but I see that a majority of your comments are not marked as spam, and if it were full blown user censorship, they would have been flagging all of them.

| Re: Why do comments, that plainly are not spam, keep getting flagged as spam? | countesshoney | 6/30/12 5:51 AM | and I'm not sure how to receive an answer back so if you can reply to that also i would certainly appreciate it |

It's very very very easy to mark comments as Spam. It only takes 2-4 "marked as spam" to censor a comment. Trolls know this, and mark comments as spam with multiple account |
| Re: Why do comments, that plainly are not spam, keep getting flagged as spam? | szalard | 1/23/13 12:07 AM | Hi, I also have a problem with this: I was commenting on a video and responding to other people.
