I'm not claiming, I am asking, therefore I cannot answer your question. If you are interested in which of my comments didn't "make the cut" you may find those on page 2 of this thread where I shared a screenshot of some of my revoked answers. They are hardly non-informative, witless or without value.

Interesting that they removed this comment which I think contributed towards the bot aticle as well as listed valid sources. Every single hospital in Ramaphosa's NHI trial has been involved in corruption or fraud.

Could it be that they don't want the links in it? I haven't commented on an article in years, so not sure what they permit.

I believe each link increases the post's "spam" value, and when that hidden value reaches a certain threshold, the post is removed or not allowed to be posted in the first place. It's like a spam filter for email, except it probably does as much bad as it does good. If they weren't cheap buggers they'd invest in an AI moderator instead. For it to check the validity of a post and links or identify actual spam is trivial. There aren't too many jobs "the damn AI" can take over effectively yet but this certainly is one of them.
So on that side you post well-formatted posts with links to sources and then you come this side and just post reaction gifs on Daily Investor threads…

That's not fair. They have turned this forum in a dump for their spam and they refuse to hear our voices. You wont know what I post as there are a ton of duplicate threads. The fact that you missed both of these proofs my point. The forum is broken.
Motsoaledi on the NHI: No compromise
Motsoaledi on the NHI: No compromise Health Minister Aaron Motsoaledi has dismissed reports that he is due to table an NHI compromise, and expressed discontent with the media for its coverage.

Solution for you.
1. Rent a domain name.
2. Get a cheap shared hosting account. There are even cheap lifetime hosting accounts on sale on sites like Stacksocial.
Here is an example: https://www.stacksocial.com/sales/bonohost-lifetime-subscription
3. Install a free forum CMS.
4. Profit.

OR they can stop spamming with duplicate threads. Win win!
I have experienced the same thing. Many of my quite harmless comments on Discus have never appeared. In fact no more vitriol than others. I no longer use it and just use the forum.

I find Disqus useful for my immediate reaction on the topic rather than waiting for forum to be active or to take a more considered view based on what others are saying.
Any response to any NHI matter will justifiably always be anti to the extreme and will stress the language filter to new levels. A sad day if these are then deleted.
