Anna B Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 I think people's sense pf humour is very subjective, and it can get people into trouble these days, more's the pity. I doubt people mean to be offensive, but it can be taken that way, which is why people seem to becoming more wary of it. That means life generally is becoming more and more serious, and that gets you down. But let's face it, sometimes the only way to cope with life, is to laugh at it. Please keep on seeing the funny side of our bizarre existance and hope for the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble is they use AI bots instead of people so it gets triggered by keywords, no context used as all. Indeed. I'm currently serving a ban for replying to a sale post. My crime: "Those are gorgeous. If I had spare cash I'd snap your hand off" To everyone and their grandma they would think I'd was being complimentary.

The other day, I was discussing holiday locations in the comments section of one of the UK leading news sources. I wrongly type country name, instead Montenegro, i put two word separately, "Monte Negra." Somebody reported me for hate speech and I got a warning.

The_DADDY Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 I was banned on facebook for calling somone racist. They made a blatantly anti white comment, I called him on it and got 3 days (I think it was 3 days) on the Facebook naughty step. Funny thing is that racists comment wasn't removed too 🙄🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipstaff Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 I’ve never used it and from experiences given by close friends and relations, I wouldn’t want to! I wouldn’t touch fb with an extended barge pole. It’s become a platform for voyeurs, egotism, exhibitionism and the keyboard sniping and backbiting that’s gone on has broken down proper relationships. It may have its uses for some I suppose.
