It then goes on to say it can not show me the offending post as that is against the standards.
A couple things struck me
1) I do not have a clue what they are talking about.
2) I have not appealed any removed posts,
3) As I have no idea what the post was that they say they deleted, and what they call SPAM, so I am likely to repeat it at some time.
I was deregistered for something like this a few years back and all my friends, contacts, posts and photographs were deleted, never to be resurrected.
Has anyone had this just recently?
TIA

How to avoid scams involving hacked social media accounts:
- When approached by your family or friends on social media talking about investment opportunities, be wary.
- Consider contacting the loved one by other means toverify their identity, such as by phone.
- Be careful when anyone or any platform requires advance payments to withdraw funds.
The Neighbourly team has been diving into a big question: should our curiosity take us up into space or down into the ocean?
It’s wild to think that more people have walked on the Moon than have reached the deepest point of the sea. Why is that?

The Stanley 220 block plane is an effective, versatile tool for tasks like end-grain trimming and joinery cleanup. It has simple adjustments and durable, cast-iron construction with a precision-ground sole. The plane's cutter features high-carbon alloy steel for clean, precise cuts. The cutter is set at a 21-degree angle for cross-grain planning.
"Plane No. 101" most commonly refers to a small, non-adjustable block plane produced by the Stanley company from 1877 to 1962, designed for detailed woodworking, model making, and light household repairs. The No. 101 is known for its compact size, light weight, and ability to provide precise shaving for tasks like trimming edges and fitting joints. It's a versatile tool for finer woodworking and is also the namesake for other, similar small planes made by different brands.
Key characteristics and uses of the Stanley No. 101 plane: Size: It's a small, compact block plane, making it ideal for detailed and precise work. Adjustability: The original Stanley No. 101 is non-adjustable, meaning the blade is manually positioned and held in place by a lever cap and a locking screw. Applications: It's particularly useful for: Model Making: Crafting and shaping small-scale models. Musical Instrument Making: Shaping and fine-tuning components like braces inside guitars. Light Woodworking: Trimming edges, chamfering, and making small repairs to furniture. End Grain: The low angle bevel-up design is excellent for planning end grain. Design: It lacks a rear handle (tote) found on larger planes, allowing for greater flexibility of movement and easier control with the fingers. Evolution: The design of the No. 101 changed slightly from its original 1877 appearance to the more familiar version by 1888.
