I will be honest. I have never liked Facebook. The format itself or that your account could be locked at the drop of a hat. Not to mention it is very difficult to get it open again (if ever). I have been reluctant to create a account due to this.
But, after a few requests I relented and created a Facebook account. Over the past couple of weeks made posts about the Redwarp sale and Soulmates being released in print. I even joined a few book groups and made a few posts there. I never did more than one a day on those groups, and always abided by the rules. Not that I would want to spam the universe regardless, that is just not my style. Heck I didn't even announce I created the account here as I was 'testing the waters'.
However, a few minutes ago while making a post about the Redwarp sale, my account froze demanding security verification. The only option I have is to send them a copy of my ID (passport etc), and then perhaps, maybe, they will release my account.
I did nothing wrong. Posting once on my page and then copying the same post once to three different groups in 24 hours is certainly not spamming nor the actions of a robot system.
Facebook, I never liked you, and you lost the one chance to have me as a customer. Goodbye and good residence. But I do apologize to the fans that have just found me there. I am still active on Twitter, Google+, Pinterest, and Goodreads. All I can say is I am glad it happened now, rather than later.
