How Do I Get 'unblocked' From Making Friend Requests Or Sending Messages?

When I was accepted as friend to the 3 James Drury The Virginian, all was well until 1 day I was blocked for sending a message to someone I did not know. Nobody knows anyone on a fan page. I asked about this from another fan in beginning & she said she just sent friend requests anyway since it was a fan page. I have placed no derogatory or inappropriate posts. all fan requests were accepted. How do i get unblocked?

Unfortunatly, Facebook is quite spammed. All the time Facebook finds ways to stop spammers, and spammers find ways to trick facebook. Due to that, ordinary users like us can get penalized. Especially new users. Those that have an account for several years won't get penalized that easily.

You can always verify your account by the phone number. That way, they will cut you a little slack.

Facebook implement a policy called "Acceptable use"

They can set limits to how often you can use a feature.

If you use it too often, they can stop you from using it for a while. Not only is this to stop you from spamming other users, it's there to provide protection to facebook (too many requests can bring the server to its knees, which means facebook goes down).

I suggest you wait for the feature to be unlocked (should only be a short while), and then tone it down on the usage. This includes reseting passwords and or changing any information like your email as well.
