Constantly rejected and deleted for no reason

I tried the MoodBar at http://ee-prototype.wmflabs.org (while logged in as "test-editor" as described here) but everything I tried was blocked with highly confusing error messages.

  1. My first try was rejected because of an unexplained "rule violation"? I have no idea why. All I did was entering a single line of text.
  2. Other tries are blocked because of an exceeded limit? What limit? Maybe it's because I'm using the "test-editor" login. But really, I don't think this is used by more than two or three people at a time.
  3. All message disappeared very, very quick. I had no time to read the text.
  4. Every time my comment was deleted from the form. I had to type it again and again.
  5. I found it confusing that the submit button is disabled even when I entered a text. My use case is: I don't care about the smileys in the upper half of the box. All I want do do is to submit a little text. Why is this blocked?

I find all this extremely confusing and annoying. Also, were is the text stored? Were can I read the texts from other users?

Edit: I tried with my own login. Same problems. My first try was rejected because of an unexplained "rule violation". The form got deleted. All other tries are blocked because of an unexplained limit. How long should I wait? Five minutes? A week? This must be explained in the error message. Also the rule I violated must be explained.

Edit: I see the extension is abandoned. Never mind. Please ignore my comments then.
