    I've had my account blocked twice this week so haven't been sharing any comp photos since. What I have been doing is commenting about how the promoters are going to lose their likers because they're running comps which are against FB policy. I've PMd one & they're actually going to look into doing apps in future as they run regular comps. If you see a comp which you want to enter but it's like & share then PM them to let them know what's going on. It's wrong that FB are punishing the entrants rather than the people running the comps against their policy. I plan on being very busy tomorrow as there are lots of lovely regular comps so I'm going to contact every one of them to let them know what's happening so this can be avoided in the future. After all it'll be so much easier as I'm sure lots of people miss out on prizes because they haven't been notified of a win because it was just notified as a post on a FB wall

    At the end of the day facebook is a business and a very good business for Mr Zuckerburg

    Its his site and if you dont like it move on, I cant understand people getting banned then straight away making new accounts :undecided

    Looks like things have calmed down now on there :beer:

    Those of you who had 2 FB accounts, but have lost your comping account can you see the account you've been banned with? IE can you see it on friend list or search for that account?

    Cannot see my comping account at all in searches. My boyfriend had my comp fb on his friend list and he cannot see it either!
    Thank you all for making MSE so wonderful!

    What's worse, they keep suggesting pages that have competitions on!

    How long did it take you to get it back. Submitted ID about 3 times in the past 2 days but still nothing.

    FB doesn't know what the hell you're liking
    I disagree, I think FB does know exactly what you're doing, liking, interacting with etc. - that's the basis of their targeted advertising.
