Facebook Disables Our Stop Sex Offenders Account

We wanted to let everyone know that Facebook disabled our STOP SEX OFFENDERS account for no reason. But, we think it's quite a coincidence that it was disabled shortly after we reported another Facebook account for copyright infringement. We wish that Facebook would have at least given us some sort of warning or notice, but they gave none. Before we discovered that our account was disabled, we had been informing our Facebook fans about child and family safety. Our fan base was steadily growing. We apologize to our 548 fans, and hope they will continue to support us via our website. We've emailed Facebook, but after an Internet search, we would be quite surprised if we received any reply. Apparently, disabling accounts without notice and reason is a common practice by Facebook.

Again, we apologize to our fans and hope to be back in a social network soon, whether it be Facebook or another network.

New Article: Social Networking Website, Facebook, from a Safety Mom's Point of View
