Is it possible to actually 'talk' to a Facebook person.
For a while now, about three times, I have had my 'FB messenger' site blocked.
I think the very 1st time a message mentioned about 8 reasons why I had been blocked, but not which of the 8 and which post. I tried to contact them but I end up going around and around in circles.
I have found out what is prompting the blocking, which has, yesterday they DISABLED my account after I posted 6 photographs of a friend's DOG on Messenger. I then remembered the last time it happened, I had posted multiple photos, and 'spam' was mentioned as one of the 8 possible reasons for blocking.
So now I know the reason, how the hell do I talk to them about it?
Here's Thursday's thinker!
I am lighter than air, but a hundred people cannot lift me. What am I?
