Backyardchickens.com violates Facebook community standards?? What??

[CannedMonster]

While on Facebook, I tried to post a link to tell a person new to chickens about my favorite and most knowledgeable site and I got told I couldn’t post it with the link!
Has anyone else had this happen?

That reminds me of the many reasons I'm not on FB.

That's SUPER weird! Can you try again and post (or message me) a screenshot and the exact steps you went through so I can try to duplicate it?

Were you posting to a person's wall, or in a group, or message or something else?

Was it a link to BYC's main homepage or a thread or something else?

External links are not allowed according to the other admins i talk to, i usually pm people the link rather than post it. Its super annoying

Not on FB but suggest rather than a link, do "Backyardchickens dotcom" rather than ".com"

I know of one Facebook group that strictly forbids any links to BYC.

Which one is that?....so I can avoid it.
Tested on my page, we'll see.

it's one of the group ones that it heavily moderated by anti-poulty-forum police.
