Hi,

For the past couple of years we have been posting pics of our 10 meter airgun targets and never had a problem. Standard targets with no depictions of anything living. Standard round bullseye targets. Yesterday I posted this and was thrown into Facebook jail for 24 hours:

" Some after dinner 10 meter practice with our new ....rifle.... One flyer that was on me, otherwise a nice grouping. Practice, practice, practice."

They said, "Your post didn't follow our community standards on guns, animals and other regulated goods."

I'm in FB jail for 24 hours. Has this happened to anyone else?

Thanks.

Not for that, but doesn’t surprise me. I got my FB account permanently deleted after being in & out of their FB jail several times. I have a new account now, but hardly use it.

Some arseclown somewhere got all butthurt because you had skeery gunzzzz, most likely. I don't see this being a problem. Facebook along with Zuckerburg is among entities I consider to be amongst the most reviled. Mind you, I never joined FB or any other social media platform save LinkedIn- and that only for professional job-seeking.

In your shoes, I'd reach out to the idiot FB mods, pull up 10M Olympic airgunning, post a buncha picturea, then flame the FREAK out of Facebook for not supporting the most vaunted sporting event in the history of mankind: the Olympic Games- which by very nature are the diametrical opposite of weapons and warmongering.

In fact, if I was on any social media platform, I'd cite 10M airgunning specifically, name Ginny Thrasher from Farmville as the 1st Gold Medal Winner the last Olympics, then berate Facebook for being so incredibly un-American and anti-Olympic.

You can't defend yourself on FB. You can click a button for FB to review the picture again (which you should do if you're still able), but that's it. Their system isn't set up for individuals to defend themselves. Also, after a certain number of bans, they quit telling you why you're being banned apparently! At least, I was stopped being told what picture or comment violated their weak and pathetic standards about 4 bans ago...

They use an algorithm that automatically dispenses fb justice. My wife was in jail for posting a pic of Rudolph last Christmas. Yes, the red nosed reindeer rudolph. You can keep fb, i won't have anything to do with it.

I'm currently serving a 30 sentence. My last post offended somebody in a particular headdress.

I had a FB account way back when our family first scattered all over the country. Didn't take long for me to find it not something I wanted to participate in. I somehow managed to permanently block myself. I considered it a blessing.

Unlike those of you who are banned, I deleted my Facebook account voluntarily and don't go back by choice. It's limited value is far overwhelmed by social politics, governmental politics, and emphasizing broken methods of communication.

.Shows how much I know about FaceJoke

I concur with Mark, though I never created a FaceJerk account. Social Media had some awesome potential but the social experiments executed by the Big Liar, Mark ZuckerJerk, clearly spell out how nefarious such a platform can be.

Same here! One of the best things I've done in recent times. I much prefer GTA for my social media needs.

No Facebook, that 5' nothing Zuckerburg sits on telephone books to get his head above the table, reminds me of *Data* from Startrek.

This morning I converted an upgraded HP All In One PC that we have in the spare room to Linux Tricia.
This is a PC that Betty Lou typically uses when she is not on her laptop. This was the last Windows PC we had and Windows was giving her fits so she stopped using it.
She came in the room and saw what I was doing and, in no uncertain terms, informed me that Facebook will be used on it.
BUZZKILL !!
I give it a month before I'm wiping and reinstalling again.

Face Book: That is what happens when I fall asleep reading in bed.

Thank you to our advertisers!
