Facebook Disabled My Account
This Account Has Been Deactivated Facebook
Visualize my surprise when I attempted to sign right into Facebook one early morning only to get the following message:
My account was disabled? What does that also imply?
I tried to visit with one more internet browser as well as I got the exact same message. Facebook impaired my account!
Facebook provided a kind submission web page for those wanting to contact Facebook about their disabled account, as well as I emailed them basically asking why my account was disabled and how I can get access back to the countless web pages I'm an admin for. I clarified that I take care of a variety of web pages for clients, and was constantly mindful concerning the content I posted-- after all, my moms and dads are on Facebook too.
After sending out the e-mail to Facebook, I sent out an e-mail to the good friends that's email addresses I really had and also explained what took place. Thanks to the connect-ability of Facebook, most of my friends were just able to be called by me on Facebook.
The replies I received from that email were categorized into three different classifications:
- WTF/WTH-- why would certainly they do that ??
- Is it due to the fact that you posted political things (I like Ron Paul and shared content about #OWS).
- Possibly somebody flagged you.
I research a few of the write-ups by others that have actually had their accounts handicapped to figure out why my own was unexpectedly pulled-- without warning I must add. The publishing days on the short articles span the lifetime of Facebook, showing that the business has forever been on a behind the curtain project of disabling accounts at their discernment.
I located some posts by popular bloggers or reporters, including Roger Ebert, Robert Scoble, and also Stan Shroeder (Mashable). A number of these high-profiled Facebook users had their profiles and/or web pages reabled not long after Facebook found that they disabled. For the remainder people, we're essentially on our own.
Reading these articles really did not infuse much hope in me or my situation. The realization of what I shed was starting to set in also.
Throughout the years I had computers collision, taken, lost, and so on and also rely upon Facebook to organize all my travel as well as celebration pictures. The website isn't going anywhere anytime quickly, so why not publish all my photos on Facebook for my friends and household to watch at their discretion? There were more than 2000 images, plenty of videos, post (notes), plus all the get in touches with (I still haven't had the ability to reconnect with many who were all shed when Facebook disabled my account). This was seeming a really stark scenario as I even more recognized simply what was lost.
I had to gain back accessibility to Facebook to take care of the pages for my customers, as well as likewise for my own business. Most of my pages' admin accessibility were shown a partner as well as were easily set back up with the brand-new Facebook account I begrudgingly developed, cursing Facebook under my breath as I set up the brand-new account.
Several of the Facebook pages admin gain access to were shared with my customers, whom I had to call to have them re-add me with my new account. All of them asked "Why did your account obtain disabled?" and also rightfully so. I, too, would certainly examine the person I paid to manage my Facebook page why their Facebook account was handicapped. Would not you?
I still do not have an answer to that concern. "I have no idea" is the response I still offer, because its true. Facebook has still yet to give me a reason why my account was handicapped. After reviewing the factors Facebook impaired accounts on their web page I was still at night. I didn't spam-add individuals, message sex-related content, bother any person. so why they removed me really did not make good sense. Only after I read other articles did I comprehend a little bit a lot more.
Facebook can disable your account if your display screen name is different than that on your birth certification. Mine was, but not by much. It was still phonetically the same, yet spelled different than the remainder of my family. I also had a client that recently made use of a competition promo to increase their email checklist. According to Facebook marketing standards, competitions can just be worked on Facebook via one of two applications: ShortStack and WildFire. Could that be why my account was disabled? I checked that customer's Facebook web page and it was gone too. Aha!
Although the competition had not been exactly organized on Facebook (it was hosted on the client's internet site), and the victor was informed using email (you can not announce winners on your wall surface), I was confident this was the upseting action which had me brought in off Facebook without so much as a 'Goodbye'.
At this point it had to do with a week considering that I initially composed Facebook that eventful morning, and I still hadn't obtained a reply. I reviewed the web page permitting me to call Facebook, as well as described that I currently had a better suggestion regarding why they disabled me, and that I was sorry. I promised never to do something like that once again (was it really that bad??) if they just reable my account.
I sent out that off as well as waited again. After a few even more days I realized something. something very essential-- I produced a filter in gmail for Facebook emails. Even if they did email me, I would certainly have never ever received the email because it was set to "Skip Inbox/Delete". Harsh.
So I sent one more email to Facebook, this moment letting them know that I had a filter on my gmail and if they did contact me before this e-mail, I would have never ever gotten it.
A couple of days later on I ultimately obtained an email from Javier at Facebook. Right here's the only reaction I'll likely receive from Facebook:.
Hi,
Unfortunately, your account has been permanently disabled for violating Facebook’s Terms. We will not reactivate it for any reason.
This will be our last email regarding your account. For more information about our policies, please read the Facebook Community Standards: https://www.facebook.com/communitystandards/
Thanks,
Javier

What a juvenile action-- certain Facebook is a 'young' firm, but I'm sure there have to be somebody there with far better tact than 'we're not going to reable your account-- do not email us once again.' ALRIGHT Facebook.
So what did I gain from my experience with Facebook?
1. Back up your account! You never understand if/when they'll choose to erase you.
2. Don't handle your different client's web pages with the very same account. If one page/account gets erased, you will not lose them all.
3. A great deal of my friends are pretenders that's accounts are either hidden from search, or they disabled the "Add as a friend" switch making it impossible to re-add them.
Its been about a month given that I had my account disabled, and also had lots of time to assess the experience. I have not attempted to speak to Facebook directly because I received the e-mail from Javier, yet I did begin the website www.facebook-disabled-my-account.org, as well as the hashtag campaign on Twitter #FBdisabledMe to accentuate the negative experience.
Do I want Facebook to change their disabling policy? Nope.
I handle a couple of MU websites and also if you desire someone off your website, by all means erase them/block them/whatever. However, for Facebook to disable the account and also to maintain the data/photos/videos/ connections/blog articles, that is wrong. What would certainly Facebook be if nobody uploaded content onto the website-- No photos to share or tag-- No short articles to Like-- No status updates to LOL at-- It would be ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.
Facebook needs to enable those that they disabled to download their account, letting them get their photos/videos/notes/ etc., prior to going off to the barren marshes of Google+, or to RT their pals standing updates (as opposed to 'Suching as' it). Facebook currently makes it possible for an active account to be downloaded and install, so why not a handicapped account?
It's time for Facebook to obtain a little bit more mature around-- especially with their IPO revealed. I'm really considering buying stock so they will certainly need to listen to my issue-- at the minimum I'll profit from them.
Have you had your Facebook account handicapped? Did you get it back, and if so exactly how?
