    yes and if I see people have already complained on their page, I don't bother - I too am scared of doing too much of anything on FB! All the fun of using FB has gone for me - now I just constantly worry about using it! So much for it being a social network - Facebook have ruined it for many people!
    :TA big thanks to all who post and sprinkling lucky dust to all who enter :smileyhea

    A few comping friends have been posting this, or similar, on any L&s we come across...
    Sorry I can't share- As it's against FB rules to use sharing as a condition for entering a competition they're clamping down on those who enter :( Many have had to verify their accounts or lose them, so too scared to risk it. Hope I can still be entered? Thanks
    Been doing it for a few days & very, very few have responded. Makes you wonder whether they read the actual entries ... :/

    ETA- also sent a few messages, but scared of getting a ban for too many messages too :(
    Worse things will have happened in the world today...

    It would be nice to see a few more taking action in this thread considering how many of us were banned. If we all rally together ow we could get so many more comments out there to companies

    I don't think the companies read the comments - they just choose a winner from their public shares list. All you see under each pic though is 'liked and shared' - so repetitive and boring! I think it is better to post on their wall or dm them.

    Yes, defo! The more of us that complain the better - at the end of the day, if loads of compers get banned and lose their accounts then it is the companies who will lose their likes! Loads of companies were commenting through the week that all of a sudden they had lost loads of likes - what most didn't realise though - they lost their fans because of their own rule breaking behaviour!:eek:

    I don't comp on Facebook but I wondered if anyone had tried telling the IPM that a company was using L&S rather than an App and wasn't responding to comments about this - to see how the IPM responded.
