Facebook tagging

luaive

Quick question.....If someone tags you in a facebook competition, as the post requires, are you then automatically entered, or do you then have to also comment and tag someone yourself to be entered?

You would have to follow the instructions on the comp as everyone runs them differently. I would say you would have to tag soneone yourself. Being tagged doesn't enter you

Ah thanks I have been, but I had a sudden thought that perhaps I was doing it wrong Thanks for the reply

Sometimes it's got you an entry sometimes not but I haven't seen any where you tagging as well would disqualify you or the original tagger.

Anyone asking you to SHARE or TAG is forbidden under Facebook terms & conditions for promotions - and could result in FB suspending your account for doing so (and many people on here have had account suspended by doing so)

SEE POINT E-3 HERE: https://www.facebook.com/page_guidelines.php

3. Promotions may be administered on Pages or within apps on Facebook. Personal Timelines and friend connections must not be used to administer promotions (example: “share on your Timeline to enter” or “share on your friend's Timeline to get additional entries”, and "tag your friends in this post to enter" are not permitted).

ALSO SEE POINT Tagging
You must not inaccurately tag content or encourage users to inaccurately tag content

You are still asked so often to share. I assume , even though it is not permitted, if you comment without sharing your competition entry is ignored?

Tbh if facebook cancelled my account, it wouldn't be the end of the world. I'll take that risk.....
