Last week I tried to enter my Facebook account after not having entered it for about a week because I was just to busy with other stuff. To my surprise I got a message that my account had been disabled by an administrator.

That's like really weird because I had not done much with my account for over a month. The occasional visit to just see what people were doing, but no strange activity. Or should I say nothing strange or spammy.

Ironically, the last thing I actually did do on my Facebook account was pay for some Facebook Ads. So I guess Facebook is in the practice of cutting off paying customers.

Anyway, I wrote to Facebook. Well let's restart that. First I had to really dig around to find anyone to write to. Then once I found an address I wrote a message explaining that there must be some error. Either somebody hacked my account or some worm or something had been playing havoc.

Do you think I got an answer. Yeah, like hell. Still no reponse. So I thought, “Well, if this happened to me then it must have happened to others.” Well, spot on. I found that even Internet greats like Chris A. Heidelberg have had their Facebook accounts terminated under the same very strange circumstances.

So, here's my thoughts on Facebook.

Facebook, you suck big chunks. We all understand your need to Police the system, but when users cannot get hold of you to voice a problem or what they believe to be an error, then you really suck.

I'm not the first, there is a growing disatisfaction with Facebook growing on the Internet and it does not start with me. I think this Gorilla of Internet, if it continues in this way, will soon have to change  tune. People do have other options to Facebook.
