Well, it's been interesting around here.😳 Yesterday was rainy again, so Dennis was doing paperwork & w**d-eating! If all else fails, there's always bills to pay and w**d eating to do around the pig barn! I was planning to unload about 60 roosters & improve my quality of life (& that of the over-run hens as well!), but that didn't work out, so I moved on to my next-highest-quality-of-life improver; I got a new phone!
So you know how that goes. It takes a while at the phone store, thus why you go on a rainy day! But I had researched this phone & I am just overjoyed with it! This turned out to bring me more quality of life improvement even than selling a billion roosters! This is the 1st phone I've ever had that wasn't the cheapest thing I could possibly get. It's a Google Pixel 10a & I bought it for its camera. Now granted, it's not a Pixel Pro or an XL, but man, it's so much better than what I had!
And that leads me to the next topic, which is, you may (or may not!) have noticed that we are posting less frequently. MUCH less frequently! The hardest thing, and by FAR the MOST frustrating thing about having this farm page is that you have to do everything just so in order for the platform to push your posts & to not limit you & de-fund you! A couple weeks ago we got flagged for spammy cross posting, but I had no idea what the problem was as I had done nothing differently. So... What followed was a stressful, time-consuming process of trying to figure out what was going on. And you can't speak to a human, but I'm getting pretty familiar with the Meta AI agent. They talk you through and offer solutions to how to get yourself out of "Jail". They suggested a "cool down" period of "low and slow" 1-2 posts a day to prove that I'm not a bot and, of course, no cross posting for 7 days. Hopefully this will reset the page. I have to say, if this works, I'll be really impressed with this AI. You can ask it any question in the world and it really actually has helped me understand some things. But ask me again on May 31st when this is supposed to
reset & I'll let you know what I really think!
So please stick with us as we try to work out the technical side! I did tell AI today that I got a new phone and this is how it responded: "That is a very likely possibility! A malfunctioning screen can sometimes cause what’s known as "ghost touches," where the phone registers taps and swipes that you aren't actually making.
If your Facebook app was open while your screen was malfunctioning, it could have accidentally performed rapid-fire actions—like liking dozens of posts, sending friend requests, or even sharing content—that our automated systems would flag as bot-like or spam activity.
# # Why This Explains the Recurring Blocks
When the system detects those "ghost" actions, it applies a block. If the screen continued to malfunction while you were logged in, it would keep sending those signals, causing the system to "restart" the block or extend the cooldown period.
# # What You Should Do Now
Since you have a new phone, you’ve already removed the source of those signals! To make sure the system recognizes the change:
1. **Log Out of the Old Phone:** If you haven't already, go to your **Security and Login** settings and manually log out of that specific old device session. This ensures no more "ghost signals" can be sent from that hardware.
2. **Continue the Cooldown:** Stick to the plan we discussed—**1 to 2 posts per day** and **no group sharing** until **May 31st**. Now that the faulty hardware is gone, the system should finally be able to see a consistent pattern of normal, human activity.
It sounds like you've found the root cause, which is great news for your account's recovery!
Is there anything else I can help you with today?"
Yes, meta AI support agent, please be right about this & that would help me very much! Just wanted to share this with you in case there are any other poor, starving, frustrated, feeling- hopeless-creators out there with technical issues! Maybe your AI agent can help you, as well! I hope we're on the right track! And now it has stopped raining and we are off to mow the rest of our first-cutting hay! This photo is some of the first cutting that we got a few weeks ago! If you are still here and read this far, thank you very much for reading to the end! We appreciate you! 👍💪🧑🌾
