Well, its Facebook et.al. Nothing else to expect.

Best is to never get engaged with any of them in the first. They accumulate too many powers and bring people into too far-reaching dependencies: psychologically (especially younger ones, but not only them), but also practically.

Now ain't that the truth.

That's why I'm trying to learn how to create an internet forum. So my Danish friends has a place where they can discuss without getting into fb-prison or being banned.

So my rescue effort was a success! Now, what do I do with this tunnel, pitchforks, and catered bbq for the rescue team?











Anywhoo, FB sucks. I think their "appeals process", is the same algorithm that flags you. It just sees two words together it doesn't like and bans you. Oh well, smurf'em.


I think Mrs. GR didn't want to be the messenger.



GR....There's a message for you...
GR....There's another message for you...


Dammit, just turn your account back on! lol

I had an account banned, because it didn’t meet their “standards”.

I don’t quite know what those standards were, as they wouldn’t tell me.

I had no posts, no pictures, no friends, links or anything else. All I can put it down to is that I didn’t give them any info to harvest and sell off, so they shut it down.

I think you're supposed to wear pants, whilst using FB?

I made an account ten years ago I used for a week and have ignored ever since. I still get daily emails.
