[quote:phocuss:MV8xOTg0OTc5XzMzMzY0Njk2X0RDRDhBNUYz] [quote:Anonymous Coward 3199789:MV8xOTg0OTc5XzMzMzYzODc2X0Q1MTI5RENF] [quote:Anonymous Coward 3199789:MV8xOTg0OTc5XzMzMzYzODE3X0Y0NEYwQURF] [quote:phocuss:MV8xOTg0OTc5XzMzMzQ3Mjc2XzJEMjdEQzJG] This is taken from the email received from Facebook: "[i]You're receiving this message because a friend is concerned about something you posted on Facebook. Facebook is working with the the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) to provide resources and support for those who may be struggling with substance abuse[/i]." [/quote] hehehe burn... your friend clicked something saying he/she thinks you're suicidal hope you're not cause that wouldn't be funny. But assuming you're not and they clicked that...that's kinda hilarious. Also facebook is evil, use it only in full awareness of how disgusting it is. [/quote] Eh I read that wrong. I just assumed suicidal since I saw a headline the other day that said "fb wants to help prevent suicide or smth. Seems like more like a warning to stop posting about your drug use on fb... no offense but seems like a good idea. If you are doing drugs why would you announce it? [/quote] To clarify this happened to an editor at CLG and most likely the result of a false report from a 'friend'. [/quote]
Original Message
From the article:
On September 11, Facebook would *not allow me access* until I checked a box on a pop-up to acknowledge their 'substance abuse warning,' purportedly issued due to the 'nature' of my posts. The message was identical to the email I received from Facebook below, with this additional wording: 'I have read the message above,' and a box which had to be checked in order to access my account.
