Glitch or censorship?

I haven't been able to get my FB page to load for over 48 hours now. I sent 2 "not working" reports - 24 hours apart. I've had no messages from them that I have been blocked or banned. Yet the site still loads blank. There are a few pieces of legislation that are being voted on - and I was circulating petitions and info. Okay - I know that's paranoid and even I admit it calls for heavy duty tinfoil screaming...........

but really - this is the third day and I'm still down. Anyone else having problems with this?

    It's a glitch Sal.
    For the last two days it's been a crap shot for me and a couple others I know. Sometimes I log in and everything is normal, sometimes I get a blank home page and sometimes my browser times out.
    I noticed the problems all started right after FB went public.

      Well, hell in a handbasket Thom. I think we've been hoodwinked You and I and probably the "few others" who you know having problems were all disseminating the same message regarding a few issues being voted on during this particular time we are down. That's one "handy" freaking little glitch - donncha think

    I was signed in without realizing it, so I can access my account. I went to sign out only to find I no longer have the option to "sign out".

    Not sure what's going on.

    I've had no problems Sal and Thom.
    Jody,I sent you a message on FB about signing out,but if you don't see what I am referring to in the message you may be glitched too. Either way, I am ALWAYS signed out once I close my browser for more than a minute or so.
    I'm using chrome.

      Kim I also use chrome. Thanks for the message. I know how to sign out, but the arrow is gone. There's nothing there. Not even sure why I was signed in to begin with, as I haven't used it in awhile. I always would sign out after I was finished there.


      Help, I'm being held hostage by FB.

    Definitely a glitch. I've been having the same problem when logging in on Facebook. I'm also not getting any error messages.

    I get email notices, Kim. I don't remember where I registered to get them. The email is '"megavote" so that might come up on google. It tells what they just DID and what they are getting ready to do "real soon" complete with bill numbers and who voted what on what and exact bill numbers and summary of the next pile of crap...um...I mean legislation that's planning to "happen" in the near future.

    I recommend that for anyone who finds it. I probably won't go back and look anything up for ya - busy. LOL

    This is NOT a paid endorsement. I really just dig the emails.

    I'm Canadian lol, and I'm being held hostage.

    Gotta be a glitch, even if it is convenient.

    It's all kewl Jodi. I'm SURE it's a glitch. Just having fun playing connect the dots. If more people played that game I bet our constitution wouldn't be nearly as torn up as it is. LOL. Ya gotta practice at it - I'm just experimenting in motivational/cognitive science here, you understand that - right.

    I figure the info is out there and if people can't figure out on their own where to find it when it's as available as "push button", I'm sure they don't have enough objective reasoning skills to figure out the best choice for everyone in an actual vote.

    Et sais le faire the Republic.

    This has been my own, authoritative, assessment of this whole thread. :rolleyes:

    It's no glitch. I reported you all a few days ago for being subversives, anarchists, and excessive belching. I think it was the belching that did it.

      That's just not true and you know it. You make me sound like a terrifying monster.
      I don't belch any more than anyone else.

    Well, I certainly hope you are not mistaking me practicing the new language I'm learning,wanga wanga, which consists of modulating expelled air from the diaphram as something as lowbrow as belching!They sound entirely different!

      Sal, try loading it with https instead of http and see if that lets you in.

    I'm in but I tried to post something and it DID censor me. It refused to let me post what I wanted in a "share". I took the comments (keywords) out and it posted fine and dandy and I just added the comments in the comments instead. They still worked there. I saw an article that the FEDS are demanding info from a LOT of sites so we are being surveilled more closely than they want us to know. There was a list of sites that will inform you when your info is requested. Linked-in is one of them. I don't remember FB being on that list. I also saw that a lot of people are telling employers where to get off when they demand things like private message or password access. Right on.
