FB Help please, I am blocked for liking!

Hi - can anyone help ? I spent the morning going through the competition board and entering as many as I fancied, then I recieved a facebook message to say I am blocked from 'liking' for 30 days for excessive abuse of this facility ! Has anyone else had this and any ideas how I can get rid of the block ? I emailed facebook but they promptly replied thanking for my comments but they don't answer specific queries !

    I have bad feeling sooner or later they will block my account too, they invented "like" button and don't want us to use it!

    I'm on my third blocking, it started October last year.

    If you scroll through other threads like this, someone who works for a company understands why people are getting blocked because there account does not look like a proper fb account. You need to add pictures to you page, make comments & play games.

    When I am allowed to like again I will only be liking big prizes like ipads & cookers lol.

    It's worth clicking on FB comps still as some use apps & if you have liked them before you can still enter even though you are blocked now.

    In another comp on the main board today, there was a FB comp to like & share, the person who did the comp said that FB contacted them & said you can't have a like & share comp it's against FB's rules & if they want to do a comp it needs to be a app comp

    Seems like FB are clamping down on the people who run like & share comps as well as people who like & share lots of comps per day.
