Facebook Blocks Users From Mentioning BugMeNot.com

ThinkingInBinary writes "The other day, I was trying to mention bugmenot.com in my Facebook status, and I discovered to my horror that Facebook blocks the phrase 'bugmenot.com' as "abusive" in status updates, messages, and presumably any other communications on the site. Facebook isn't even listed on BugMeNot, as they requested that logins for Facebook be blocked. This is pretty ridiculous, as I can't even send my friends a message mentioning bugmenot.com!"

EVENTUALLY the business dorks will figure out the cycle. What are we, up to about fifteen years now? They're a little slow, but the come around eventually.

Thanks for the tips! May I subscribe to your newsletter? By the way meta comment on moderation is a very different beast than metamoderation. Sure you weren't talking about commenting on moderation, but your post was very much a comment about moderation.
