Blocks
Facebook has policies to stop behavior that other people may find annoying or abusive. If your account is blocked, you will still be able to log on to Facebook, but you may not be able to use features.
Facebook has policies in place to stop behavior that other people may find annoying or abusive. We've determined that you used a feature in a way that could be considered abusive, even if you didn't mean to.
A few things to keep in mind about your block:
- Blocks are temporary and can last a few hours or a few days
- We can't lift this block for any reason
To keep from getting blocked again, please slow down or stop this behavior (ex: send fewer messages each day, only tag people in photos they're actually in). Otherwise, your account could be permanently disabled.

The block on your account could last between a few hours and a few days, depending on the situation. We can't lift this block for any reason.
When the block is over, please slow down or stop this behavior (ex: send fewer messages each day, only tag people in photos they're actually in). Otherwise, your account could be permanently disabled.

If your account is blocked from sending someone a friend request, it may be because friend requests you’ve sent have gone unanswered or been marked as unwelcome. In the future, you should send friend requests to people you have a real-life connection to, like your friends, family, coworkers or classmates. Make sure to use your authentic name and picture to help the people you're adding as a friend recognize you.
If you're interested in receiving updates from people you find interesting, but don't know personally (ex: journalists, celebrities, political figures), try following them instead of sending them friend requests.

If you're temporarily blocked from sending messages, it may be because you sent a lot of messages recently or your messages have been marked as unwelcome.
This block is temporary, and you can still use other Facebook features to connect with your Facebook friends while you're in this block. Once your block is over, please only send messages to people you know personally. Make sure to use your authentic name and picture to help the people you're messaging recognize you.
To learn more about our policies, please review the Facebook Community Standards.
Note: If you're blocked from sending messages, you may also be temporarily blocked from sending friend requests.
If you've been blocked from creating apps, it may be because one or more of your apps aren't following the Facebook Platform Policies.
If you believe we made this decision in error, please review the Facebook Platform Policies and then submit an appeal.
