Memo to all my Facebook friends: I've been prohibited from posting
They aren't telling me which of their rules I violated or when I'll be allowed to post again. I understand this is typical of FB:

http://getsatisfaction.com/facebook/topics/13_reasons_your_facebook_account_will_be_disabled



I can still send PMs, but they'll probably get that next.



Just lettin' y'all know. :hi:

1. it sometimes happens
if you post too much, or do "too many actions" at once. A lot of people who play games like Mafia Wars get hit with it.

2. I don't play Mafia Wars or any other FB game
I might post too much, but I have no way of knowing this, as "too much" hasn't been defined.

3. My guess would be your posts were too frequent while talking about baseball with Kitchy.
Just a guess, but that's the only thing I can think of, except somebody maliciously alerting on you.

5. Kitchy et al :)
But if that were the case, why wouldn't they get a slice of pizza as well? I mean, assuming one post of theirs for every one of mine in a baseball thread. :shrug:

I'm thinking maybe I used one of their buzzwords and their NSA-style auto-commie-catcher flagged it — something like "sacrifice" or another seditious/terrist baseball term.

8. Didn't you know that on FB you're only supposed to talk about sex and getting drunk?
It's in the terms of service!

9. I posted a lot with several FB friends during the NCAA basketball tourney
and didn't have any trouble. We posted rapidly back and forth too.

Wonder what in the world happened with your account? Weirdness.

15. That's a seriously big WTF
Considering you and I wax ecstatic for 2 pages about the Dodgers (well, for 2 out of 3 games anyway). I have never been hit with a warning, and I post at LEAST as much as you.

Whaddafuck?

6. Well, I'm trapped in a hotel that *blocks* FB
unless I want to bust out ten bucks a day for their in-room access. :grr:

7. That is bizarre.
Nothing like breaking a rule that isn't written.

What are we going to have to do, turn you over our knees and spank you???

12. They blocked me for 24 hours once.
I was searching for a friend with a common first and last name (over 500 results, mostly without avatar pics) and I guess I was clicking through the hits too fast...apparently, they thought I was spamming or something. :shrug:

14. I'm surprised I haven't been suspended.
Since I use a lot of naughty and offensive words when replying to someone.
