Sorry to stick the knife in, but my account is fine so far, but I am wondering why.

I do play a few games on my comping FB account but 90% of my activity is L&S comps.

I very rarely update my status (probably 3 times a year).

I have 356 friends (none of whom I know or have met lol)

I "like" 956 pages.

A fellow comper recently contacted me and advised me to change my generic profile pic to one of me, which I did.

(oh and I have never won so much as a sausage on FB)

I just wondered how my stats stack up against those that have been blocked?
2017 wins = £1350
2016 wins = £125 (18 months off comps)
2015 wins = £6,460
2014 wins = £1,350

    I have 1,350 friends of which I only know 2 or 3, first time I have checked my likes and I have liked 6,901 pages.
    I do it just for fun and whatever I win is a bonus

    It will be interesting to see how many others have. I only ever used to play a few games on that ac and only started using it for comping in the last few months. We may be able to find a pattern or cut off.

    PS have you blocked JamboDP?

    11 friends, all real, who I interact with and message often. 5008 likes. I'm blocked. While googling found a reference to a maximum of 5000 likes, but it is an old article

    Yay, I'm in the club too. Thought it was just me. I don't think I 'like' too much at all.
    Thank you to everyone who posts on the competitions boards. You all rock!

    This is my personal account that got restricted, I very rarely do L&S comps, but I will do Like post / app comps, but only for stuff I want ... not that many really.

    I'd liked around 1,200 pages - but that's going back around 7 years, and not just businesses. They must just be having a blitz. I got a capatcha yesterday when sharing a post that was already on fb.

    Make your own Pot Noodles using a flower pot, sawdust and some old shoe laces. Pour in boiling water, stir then allow to stand for two minutes before taking one mouthful, and throwing away. Just like the real thing!

    My only account got banned - I've got 212 friends, and 2079 'likes'. I hadn't even been on Facebook today until this evening. I haven't done many comps recently (10 yesterday and 27 the day before - none before then for about 3 weeks). Really confused.
    ;) Working hard in the hopes of being 'lucky' ;)
