I wrote a recipe on my blog today. I started sharing it on my social media. I went to Facebook to access my groups. I was suddenly logged out and had to create a new password to log back in. I logged back in. I clicked on Groups but got the 404 error. I started accessing my groups through the shortcuts. When I tried to submit a post, I received a message saying I am blocked til Monday at a certain time from posting or commenting in Facebook groups. No reason why was given. Well, I don't normally blog or access Facebook groups on the weekend. But the ones I admin in the buy, sell or trade groups. As I moderator all posts going through and new members. Have you been blocked on Facebook from doing something? I am not asking about being blocked by a friend or person. As I know that routinely happens to many people. Did you know why you were blocked? How long did you being blocked by facebook last?

I got blocked for a few hours from posting links. Okay, I may have been blocked for other stuff as well, but as that's the only thing I do on Facebook, I wouldn't know about anything else. I don't know why I was blocked; there was nothing wrong with the links. Maybe Facebook didn't like only being used for promoting my own stuff on other sites.

I quit a few games and stopped my subscriptions to a Facebook game. I think they are mad because they are not going to get money from for games anymore. Right after is when I was logged out and blocked from posting in groups. As I was trying to leave all my game groups.

I used to promote my blog on Facebook and never had a problem. My posts for other stuff far outnumbered my blog promotions on FB.

You must have done something against the rules. When you get back on, change the password again. That may have been a phishing attempt.

I didn't do anything against the rules. I went to groups that allow sharing on a blog link. Facebook allows that.

@rusty2rusty It was just a suggestion. I don't know why FB would block your access. Hope you get it back soon.

@computerguy1980 I have blocked a few people. Normally from men who hit on me. Since I am in a relationship I am not looking for anything like that.

@rusty2rusty I hate when they do not give you a reason and just do it.

I've been blocked when I was adding friends from other countries. I think it took 30days. But since I stopped adding people and joining/posting on Facebook groups I had no problem. I am only sharing links on my Facebook timeline and pages this time.
