So a while back I made a thread about an issue I am having with my facebook fanpage, where in it thinks anything associated with my page is spam. I finally heard back from FB that someone has been constantly reporting all of my posts (few as they are) as spam. This has created an issue where when someone tries to tag "Raina the Halifax Mermaid" in a status, share the page, share an image, or tag a photo- they are presented with a security check capctha they must fill out. Because the capctha's rarely show up on FB, people often freak out thinking there's been some security breech- and they don't follow through. Often, when someone tries to follow through they keep getting re-prompted with the captcha and it doesn't work.
I'm not sure who has it out for me, but obsessively reporting my posts as spam is pretty fu*king low honestly. I've filed a FB help ticket which they tell you right upfront they usually don't respond to.
I tried posting about this issue on my personal page and it took 5 tries to get it to post because I tagged my page, and it still wouldn't post so I had to remove the tag.
On FB our reach is already low, but this severely handicaps me. It means clients can't tag me in statuses or photos (which I am constantly getting emails about). People I have made deals with to share their pages when they share mine etc can't follow through. The average user wont share because they think there is a security hazard.
The only real way I can get help is if people fill out the form under "this is a mistake" when the captcha pops up. You need to include the link to my fanpage.
So I'm asking, I know I've asked before.... but I'd really appreciate it if people could attempt to share something from my page. If it does share you can delete it if you want to, if you get the capctha, you don't have to actually follow through with sharing you can just click this link on the bottom right:

When you fill out the form you gotta link my page which some people didn't do last time (I didn't realize they had to for the report to be considered valid) https://www.facebook.com/RainaMermaid
Id really really appreciate people helping me out with this. I try to help out the community a lot and this is affecting my direct business. I *do* get business from Facebook, and I network locally a hell of a lot. It would be really great if I had the tagging ability back without the warning/blocking.I've been struggling along since this started happening... and you'll notice what I post to that page has gone way down. I used to post a few things a day now it's 1 or 2 a week or so.
P.s. I know I had a thread on this elsewhere but the search proved useless. I can't remember what I titled it and I tried the usual keywords for title + my username to no avail, so please don't give me crap for a second post :p
