Why is Mozilla blocking the submission of certain ideas?

The feedback about Firefox is highly biased. Positive comments are welcomed, but negative ones are blocked. There also is a block against submitting certain types of ideas. I try to submit an idea about the display of text in the address bar, and that is always blocked. Why?? What is the point of inviting feedback if you are going to bias it strongly?

Thanks for the reply. I found out (by posting to a Mozilla newsgroup) that there is a character limit, and I was over the limit. That fact should be stated on the page. I was not aware that there was a limit, because there was nothing to say that.

Hi finitarry-

The only feedback that is officially blocked contains words that are considered offensive. It designed to accept both positive and negative comments.
