Folks, PLEASE read the whole post!
FRUSTRATED!!!
This is the second coment I have rejected on the same post. In my post, the preamble, I talked a little about the electric tongue jacks that have come with a previous tailer I owned and how I thought that they weren't all that good .
I don't think this person took the time to read my whole post or they would have understood this.
Have a read and tell me what you think.
Thank you for your review of Top 5 Best Electric Tounge Jacks and showing that there is a better way.
The best thing in your post that attracts me very much is you have honestly said in your article that none of them are still the best quality and also gave a hope that upcoming one will be better. Thanks for being honest.
You have described nicely 5 jacks with its price. As I’m not a technical person I know a little bit about jacks, your post able me to learn many things about jacks.
I will share your post to others so that who have the interest to know about jacks and wants to buy good one could be helped.
Thank you so much for sharing this review.
The part in Bold is the part that caused the rejection.
I rejected another because all the person talked about was their own recent RV purchase and renovations they did on it, (not in detail thaks goodness). No mention of what I wrote about in my article. Sorry. Gone.
There has been a lot written about offering comments on "Site Comments" and I just want to add my short thoughts.
Please, folks, read the whole post. I know it take time. I know you want to work on your own stuff. I know you want to make $.50 but PLEASE, PLEASE read the whole post and make sure you have everything in context BEFORE leaving comments.
Read Kyle's guidlines for comments.
We are here to help each other.
Rant over and thanks for reading,
Keep Moving Forward,
Wayne

Thanks for sharing, Wayne. It is a common occurrence that happens too often.
On the other hand, I left a comment on a post that was disapproved with the comment that I hadn't read the post. This particular post was poorly written. So I missed the point the author was making.
This does not apply in your case because I just finished reading your post. (I am interested in learning more about trailers.) I thought it was well written.
In offering comments, I have found some posts to be such a waste of time that I stopped reading and moved on without commenting. The author needed feedback, not comments.
I always add a question at the bottom of my posts such as:
"Have you had a good experience with this?" or "Do you use this product or another?"
To date, 1 in 10 will answer my questions when giving comments... Most border on feedback...
Thanks for your comment, Paul and your excellent suggestion. I haven't thought of that. A great way to hopefully expand the conversation.
Thanks, I'm going to start doing that immediately which means I will have to do a few revisions as well.
Great tip,
Wayne
Sorry to hear that you're experiencing this along with the other members who have recently posted about it too, Wayne. I've not had a problem when I've requested comments thru Site Comments. Fortunately! But... it is frustrating when someone fails to read the whole post, yet tries to comment. I know Kyle & Carson are working to resolve this type of issue. Meanwhile, hang in there and keep rejecting the less than satisfactory comments. :)
All the best to you!

Getting good comments hasn't really been an issue for me either but I guess it's going to happen sooner or later.
It's happened to me as well. It doesn't feel great but I'm better for it.
I don't know how much Kyle and Carson can do. I think one will always get the odd one I think
Hangin in, and the best to you as well.
Some people are so shamelessly trying to get credits that they leave you some generic comment and expect you to just accept. I feel it`s a waste of time for both parties.
Glad you did not accept the comment makes them think next time.
I agree. I've had it happen to me a couple of times to. It stings a little but it made me better. I didn't at the time but now I call it a growing experience.
Hi Wayne, I haven't done an awful lot with Site Comments yet as I am still focusing on writing quality content. That being said, I had about 20 credits and used all but 2 of them requesting comments on some recent posts. Thankfully, the comments I did receive were thoughtfully written and it seemed they read my entire post.
I think you did the right thing by rejecting it because you don't want that visible on your site. I wonder how the comments will be when actual visitors start leaving comments? We will have to accept them and bit the bullet I guess and try to write something that makes sense in our replies. It is an intriguing issue.

Thanks, Kal.
Totally agree. Makes it look like I am contradicting myself.
As far as other comments coming from outside this format? I do believe that we have the option to accept or reject them when we are on our website backroom in WordPress.
If I'm wrong I stand corrected but I think this is the case.

People who leave organic contents don't read the whole post many times. I just use it as a good opportunity to make my point again if they get something wrong. You can turn it into a positive!
I have actually done that a couple of times. I have also added a couple of revisions to the post just to try and make things clear.
Nope. Just a Wayne the same age as you but soon to be 70. Nothing that special about me other than I am a unique human being saved by Grace.
that is true! Cracking stuff! nice to meet you here and nice to see people my age here too :)
Oh nevermind then, you may not follow football, but you share the name of a famous footballer named Wayne Rooney. Just the first thing that came to my head lol
