CivilCommentsisacommunistorganization,
I have had my tangles with the Civil Bot. Go to my Face Book page and send me a message and I will share with you how I am dealing with it. 
The Civil Bot is a computer program developed by two ladies who want to teach us how to be "civil". Instead of a electric shock like Pavlov's dogs, we get the dreaded "black curtain". Many times you have no idea why. Civil bots can't read what we write. They "count" the "votes" that you make on other people's comments and the votes other make. Yes, there is someone here who has "hacked" the site and there is another who along with his "friends" ( he has figured out a way to have multiple names to post and vote under)  who will get your comment flagged and taken down. He has threatened me several times and did indeed get my comments flagged. But, where there is a will there is a way.
