Rules Is it against the rules to sell facebook advertising?

    I have looked through the rules and the only thing I can find on facebook is that you can't sell accounts. I wasn't selling accounts I will selling services.

    There are alot of threads of people selling exactly the same services where I simply invite my friends to join a group/app/fanpage for $5.

    Any idea why my thread has been taken down?

    Thanks

    Sam

    Edit - Also to add I got an infraction from it.

    The thread to which you refer was started in the wrong category. I just moved it to freebies due to pricing. Sales of good and services for five dollars or under belong there.

    Don't start new thread. Spamming services are not allowed. If you see others offering the service use the bad post report to alert us.

    What are you about? My thread was deleted. So I made a new one I am not spamming.

    I am confused. You said that my thread was moved because it was in the wrong caterogry but my thead is not even there so I made a new one in the right category. I have 1 thread.

    You are NOT permitted to create social network threads on services like Twitter, Facebook, Myspace, etc.

    From the FAQ:
    Stumbles / Diggs / Social Bookmarking / Social Networking - No buying or selling of services; no exchanges; no freebies. (This also includes microblogging services like Twitter, Tumblr, Spoink, etc. or any other social network).

    Your subsequent thread has been deleted, but no infraction.

    Yes, it's spam...and your thread proved it. You were willing to spam your own friends (if they are all real friends) for money.
