I tried a couple times to access my original account (Ann Vole without the underscore) but none of my email addresses worked. I have big ideas to try and prototype but currently unemployed so money is a constraint. Might be able to start several small businesses making stuff I need for my prototypes and related stuff. One idea is making helical piles from "green steel" and solar powered welding for use in foundations for ground mounted solar panels and house foundations for those who don't want to use concrete. Eventually I might get an electric semi truck and deliver low carbon building materials to low carbon building projects. I was kicked off Facebook for not revealing personal information but returned to posting on the old LiveJournal, the original social media lol.

I think I changed email and password for the "Ann Vole" account with the temporary password you set but it says the account is inactive. I haven't used that old original email in years and the email service is not cooperating with changing passcode but the new email I changed it to should work fine.

Hi, nice to see names I remember. After reaching the 5000 friend limit on Facebook, being booted off for not revealing my true identity, only 2 Facebook friends made an effort to contact me and both don't use the internet much. All my old forums I used to visit are either inactive or no longer working as a website with this EnviroLink being the only exception. I will try some specialized electronics and software to hide my identity and if I can fool Facebook to let me use several accounts at the same time without realizing they are one user, I will be able to remain active on the big platforms without real identity information... Let's see what Elon Musk does to Twitter.

Welcome back! All of a sudden, you were not on Facebook. I got kicked off for a day, for saying journalists who spread fake news should be hung, IMHO. Apparently, opinions are not allowed if they don't support fake news journalism or support Assange. #-o

I got booted off of Facebook for 30 days about 18 months before they wanted my drivers license and birth certificate to get back on. I was only told it was "spam" that they booted me those 30 days and wouldn't even let me see the help pages on Facebook using my modem (any device) or logged in at the public library... Yes, they hacked the public library system. When I finally got back on, I figured out that posting two identical event posts in two groups was the "spam"... a monthly special church service and the two groups are a group for the special services and the group for the church where they happen. That was when I decided to use Facebook's feature of showing old posts to delete all old posts then reshare the stuff with no personal information or political lean. I was still seeing some posts hidden from the previous year's purge so I hoped for another year of purging but I think I succeeded at obscuring my views. I also achieved my 5000 friend limit several times but since most were scammers sending the friends requests, the total was constantly dropping as Facebook booted scammers. I wanted this to make my real contacts hard to determine. My website host company was bought out and in the transfer, they broke my email address and lost 2 decades of emails. I suspect Facebook got suspicious of my identity because of the email fiasco. (and I don't use a cellphone)... But likely accepting too many scammer friends requests at once was the "suspicious activity" they used as an excuse to need personal information.

I have had two "cloned" Facebook accounts in the last two years....I know it this because I stayed away from Facebook until I accidentally created an account through another site. Since then I have discovered two older spam accounts using vacation home locations to claim to be me.

Yeah, several of those scammers tried to fake my account but nobody bought in because my posts are many and always about animals. I didn't want my city to be displayed but couldn't stop Facebook from revealing that in several ways... But these fake accounts trying to be me were never in Canada and rarely in North America so that helped people realize they were fake. Nobody used my cartoon profile image though so Facebook might be deleting accounts using that image. One of my other accounts based on a Disney character kept getting deleted and Facebook would not let me use any of the images I previously used on a deleted account when making a new account... Instant deletion.
