 * Why doesn’t your basic comment moderation features work as intended? Why does
   your customer support team refuse to help unless I use your paid for spam akismet?
   Why doesn’t your jetpack plugin not work with any other spam plugin, instead 
   blocking the ability of anyone to leave a message if any other spam plugin is
   active?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fcomment-moderation-29%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * WordPress’ default comment moderation is pretty basic, and uses a moderation 
   list of specific words/terms only. It does work as intended, but people have 
   to actually use your flagged words.

 * There is no customer support team for WordPress.org. Jetpack is supported by 
   the company Automattic who is not actually the owner of WordPress.org. We know
   it can be confusing, but you shouldn’t conflate the two.
 * As for their requirements? Well, that’s their requirements. We can’t really help
   you with that 🙁
