1. Did the Poodle send in a TOS email?
Somehow I doubt it...

Just some RWers with no sense of humor.

5. I'm the creator/admin....
....of the "Bob The Wonder Poodle" page. Yes, we are "publish blocked"; the page still exists, the "fans" can make posts to the page wall, upload photos, and so on.

*I*, however, can only comment and do admin tasks such as delete spam. I've neither been able to add any new content since February 18th, nor create a new status update for the page. To the best of my knowledge, I've done everything that FB desires of a "page" admin - I've submitted an online "authentication form" via FB's "Help Center a over a week ago now. Still no response other than the text of the email that's currently used as the "profile pic" (...which I'll be changing out within the hour to a rather humorous muzzled "Bob The Wonder Poodle".)

And I'll state what I've previously stated in the comments over the past week. I'm not ready to "place blame" yet on any particular individual or group until I hear from Facebook. Without corroborating evidence, all I have is a conspiracy theory, and that's Beck's style. I'm striving to be above that.

If you know of ANYONE in the media, please alert them to this situation. It seems that FB tends to react much more quickly in the threat of bad press; consider these two situations:

Thanks for your attention.

9. Farcebook enforces that rule selectively.
I've alerted on numerous fake accounts, but they remain active. It's not surprising that a fricking page that pokes fun of Crybaby Beck gets yanked.
