      I just got banned from Facebook for...nothing?

      I don't know if it's because I'd just changed my profile pic to this,
      Spoiler for image:


      [which was supposed to be a joke for my sister, because I said "I don't like your profile picture" so she changed it to what I thought was a much nicer one and asked "is this better?" and then commented on my pic the same "I don't like your profile picture" so I changed it to the sexy Burt Reynolds (which she sent to my phone not too long ago for lulz) and asked "is this better?"]

      OR

      because I'd just become a fan of "The Bible" (which is mostly frequented by hardcore christians of course) and posted on the wall "Hail Satan my Dark Lord and Master." (squidbillies quote :D)

      hmmmm.

      (probably, one of the christians reported my profile pic as inappropriate :|

      losers)

      Probably the Bible thing, lots of people get pissed when you insult their religion like a prick.


      Can you see me now?

      their religion insults me.

      besides, it wasn't an insult so much as me simply stating my opposing beliefs. but really, it was a joke, a quote from a comedy show.

      stuck up self-righteous a-holes can't take a joke :(

      let's see if my new account gets banned for this:

      You should add in a comment underneath that it makes good fire fuel.

      So...you were trolling Facebook?

      Then, you didn't get banned for nothing, you got banned for trolling.

      if the fan page was called "christians who love the bible and only want to hear from other christians - no satanists, atheists or anyone of any other religion or philosophy allowed" then it would be trolling.

      it's a fan page for the bible, and

      I am a fan of the bible.

      just because my reasons for being a fan of it differ from theirs, doesn't mean I shouldn't be allowed to post my thoughts in there.

      Atheism regardless, the Bible is undeniably of interest.

      It's one of our older historical texts and you'll find references and imagery drawn from it almost everywhere in Western culture.

      I'm a fan.

      You know what? You're absolutely right. You've inspired be to become a fan of some LGBT group and start spouting off "Whazzup, my homos!?" or "let's GAY IT UP in here, faggots!" or "all aboard the Buttfuck Express!"

      ...Of course, I'd look like a grade-A prick, but hey, as long as I disagree with homosexuality, it's alright, right? Plus, if it doesn't say "homo/bisexuals who only want to hear from other homo/bisexuals - no straights or homophobes allowed" then it'd be a complete injustice - INJUSTICE, I tell you - for Facebook to ban me for it.

      Or perhaps I'll join an suicide help group and say "remember, kids, it's down the road of life, not across. I was just gonna go off myself right now, in fact. Anyone else who realizes there's absolutely no point in living, follow me!" That'd sure get some lulz. It'd also get a few coffins to rest on my conscience, but who listens to that thing, anyway?

      ...God, I love free speech.

      Being a fan of a literary work is not the same as being a fan of sexual orientation, or of a... suicide help group...
      Nerve also did not outright insult them; did not call them names; did not insinuate anything negative about them ("all aboard the delusional express" for example). The Bible includes Satan as a character. If the group wishes to expel him because the managers of said group are predominantly Christian and were offended by Nerve's choice of sides, then so be it. But he was banned from facebook entirely.

      Besides, any worshiper of the Satan out of the Bible has to actually believe in the Bible, and can be a fan thereof.
      The same does not hold true of your examples.

      nerve, when you posted that in the group, did you honestly have any expectations about the reaction?


      Can you see me now?

      Alright!!! Yes!!! You got banned from Timewasters Anonymous!!! Now you can actually spend your time doing something CONSTRUCTIVE!!!

      I had an FB account for a week, and honestly I could never understand what the point of it was... all I could see to do in there was waste time. I deleted the account.

      Keep in contact with friends. Cheaper than texting if you're at a computer.

      That there's timewasting frippery on it is just because most of your friends are prepubescents.

      I'm guessing someone reported your picture. I've seen worse posts on other Christian groups and those people don't seem to get banned.

      I actually signed up as Amethyst Star, and when I went to change the name to my real name, at first they didn't let me. Something about how they didn't think I was who I said I was. (I'll let you know when I become famous, though.)

      I think you subconsciously tried to get banned because you know deep down that Facebook is the most ridiculous website in the history of the universe. If you can ever convince me that it would make sense for people at an enormous social function to have trivial conversations that only concern them by yelling across the room, I might start to think in the other direction. I might go a little further in that direction if I ever come to the conclusion that it is legitimate and credible behavior for people who had two conversations in college to agree twenty years later to be "friends" after one of them says, "Hey, you are my friend. Do you agree?" But then you will have to convince me that the WTF psycho freak asses from my past who found me on Facebook when I had an account there were worth having to deal with again. I think my account there will stay deleted for eternity. That is my guess.

      Dammit, I just realized something. I should have gone out with a bang like you did.

      Oh, by the way, the ultimate experience in cringe cheesiness happens when you delete your Facebook account. The site puts up pictures of random "friends" and says, "(Insert name.) will miss you. (Insert name.) will miss you. (Insert name.) will miss you..." before asking you if you are sure you want to delete your account. I think maybe they are trying to kill people by cheesing them out.

      That's odd O.o they talk about how they only want your real name and they won't change it if it isn't valid (which is friggin retarded, I think I'll put whatever name I want thanks). And yet I've changed my last name numerous times to things like ImNotTellingYou and WhyTheHellDoYouWannaKnow

      How is this being debated? You trolled facebook, clear as day. You can try and justify by any means you want to. In the end, it's an excuse.

      You misused facebook, you got banned.

      My thoughts...

      Nerve, you are an idiot if you think you aren't going to get raged at by everyone for trolling on a page such as that.

      "Oh I worship Satan" blah blah blah. No you don't. Grow up.

      That is all.

      As sindred pointed out, it's not a religious group, it's a group on the bible. And, as Invader pointed out, nerve didn't direct his comment to any person or thing; he just said that he worships satan. Satan is a character from the bible, so it's not even like it's unrelated. So really, there was no trolling.

      On second thought, they probably banned you because they thought you were gay since you posted a naked picture of Burt Reynolds. They hate homosexuals far more than they hate Satan worshippers. They probably think Burt Reynolds is gay too because he showed up for the love scene in Deliverance. They don't care that he didn't mean to.

I'm going to wear a business suit, and put on some nice black shades. I'm gonna walk right in, shoot the lock off the door in clear view of the guards, and screech away whilst being shot at. They'll chase me down the interstate at ninety MPH, when I'll turn, last minute into an obscure exit. By the time they get in, I'll be hidden from view, and it will all be justified because it was done in a stylish manner.

      The hate homosexuality, and they hate Satan.

      They don't hate homosexuals, or Satan worshipers.

      Huge difference.

      It doesn't matter how technical you make it. Nerve went in there, and trolled. I highly doubt his intent was

      "I'm going to go have some constructive conversation, by mentioning my status as a Satan worshiper."

      After all, we all know he DOESN'T worship Satan. Therefore, his only intent could have been to cause controversy. This, is trolling.

      Sorry nerve, it's the truth.
