Facebook Fiasco…

By sage of monticello | August 13, 2007

So, if you didn’t notice, we got kicked off of facebook the other day for using a fake name. Our facebook customer service “professional” Dominique had this to say:

Fake names are a violation of our Terms of Use. Facebook
requires users to provide their full first and last names (i.e.
no initials). Impersonating anyone or anything is
prohibited. Nicknames are only permitted if they are a
variation of your first or last name. Also, nicknames cannot
be used in replacement of your first or last name. The
accepted format is as follows: FirstName ‘Nickname’
LastName.

If you would like to use this profile again, just get back to
us with your real name and we will reactivate the account
for you.

Thanks for your understanding,

The professionals at facebook also had this to say:

Hi Tommy,

We have processed your request. The name on this
account has been changed to Tommy Jefferson.

Additionally, your account was disabled because you took
repeated actions that could be construed as spam. For
instance, it is a violation of Facebook’s Terms of Use to
repeatedly send the same message or to make the same
post. Facebook prides itself in protecting users from
spam, and we take this standard very seriously.

Well, the good news is that we are back on facebook. The bad news is that we had to put our real name to the account….

If you didn’t already know that I, Sage, handle the facebook account and that Sage is my nickname. My real name is Tommy - Tommy Jefferson.

So, if we aren’t already friends, add me. If we are already friends check back often for updates as to what we are up to here at CR Nation.
