Why are FB deleting gun pics

[Whoopty]

Why are fb deleting gun pics makes no sense we're not RPing in europe.

U can say take it IC but fb mods are just admins as far as I know, how do you take it IC.

If thats the case its goofy because there are a lot of gang members or even rankers posting pictures with guns on facebook, instagram, and snapchat

It says are not prohibited. There are lots of them on Facebook as well that I have personally seen. Am I missing something?

Moderation in a small community versus moderation on facebook is quite different, moderation on facebook is actually widely discussed due to how people claim "it's poor", but facebook claims they take down up to 1.5 minion posts every day.

Basically, people that post pictures of guns on facebook are in violation of facebook rules, but simply put, facebook is too big to be moderated as efficiently. If you don't want gun pictures to be taken down, don't post them publicly, instead add people that are your friends that won't report your posts and share it on friends only, same as facebook.

I don’t think you understand the meaning of “not prohibited” 🤣

"It's not prohibited/banned by Facebook ToS"
It's allowed/legal/permmited

Or it may just be my dyslexia that hit me hard like a truck on the side of the road and I'm dumb, idk.

You’re allowed to post your guns. Just not sell them through the marketplace, basically bro

Well, technically Facebrowser is a private entity, so therefore it can be regulated as they team wishes. I would be surprised to hear if someone said we should take inspiration from Facebook and should follow their TOS 😂
