Facebook has blocked my account because they claim I've added too many friends. They have blocked me from adding any more friends for 14 days. This is the second time this has happened. I am not careless in adding friends but is there anything I can do to get reinstated?

Sadly you can't unblock your account earlier. You'll have to wait for the 14 days to pass.

Trouble Using Facebook » I am blocked or disabled

Blocked: You are unable to use a specific feature, but you can still access your account. Facebook has policies to stop behavior that other users may find annoying or abusive. A block is set when Facebook systems determine that the user was adding friends or using a feature repeatedly in a short period of time after being warned to slow down. If your account is blocked, you will still be able to log on to Facebook, but you will not able to add friends, post, or use another feature temporarily.


I am blocked from using a feature. Facebook has policies to stop behavior that other members may find annoying or abusive. Even if you did not have this intention, we determined that you posted something that violated our standards or were repeatedly using the same feature in a short period of time.

Here's what you should keep in mind about your block:

  • This temporary block will last anywhere from a few hours to a few days.
  • Attempting to use this feature while you are blocked can extend the block.
  • We cannot lift this block for any reason, so please be patient and refrain from using this feature for a few days while waiting for this block to be removed.
  • Once you are allowed to use this feature again, you must significantly slow down or stop this behavior. Further misuse of site features may result in more blocks or your account being permanently disabled.

Unfortunately, Facebook cannot provide any specifics on the rate limits that are enforced. The threshold at which you are warned is not a specific number, but rather determined by different factors, such as speed, time, and quantity.

The threshold at which you are warned is not a specific number, but rather determined by different factors, such as speed, time, and quantity. I am blocked from sending messages. If you've been prevented from sending messages on Facebook, it may be because you have sent a high volume of messages recently or Facebook members have reported your contact as unwelcome. Please note that these blocks can last anywhere from a few hours to a few days. Please review the Facebook Community Standards while you wait for it to complete.

Once your block is complete, please remember to only send friend requests and messages to people who you already know personally. Otherwise, additional limits may be placed on your account. Keep in mind that it's possible to run into a block based on how many messages you send and how fast you send them. It's also possible to be blocked when either starting a new message thread or replying to a message. Deleting old messages will not allow you to send more messages.

Why didn't my friend request go through? Facebook is a place for connecting with friends, family, and other people you know personally.

If you've been prevented from adding friends on Facebook, it's likely because friend requests you've sent have gone unanswered or members reported your contact as unwelcome.

You'll be allowed to add friends again soon. At that time, please remember to only send friend requests and messages to people who you already know personally. Otherwise, additional limits may be placed on your account.

Hiiiiiiii My Friend Requests Block for 30 days.. Plzzz Help.. me Give me solusion .. Plzzzzz PLzzzzzz

Taken from the Facebook help page: "If you've been prevented from adding friends on Facebook, it's likely because many friend requests you've sent recently have gone unanswered. This may be because you've sent friend requests to strangers, or it may be due to other behavior that Facebook members have reported as unwelcome."

Check the terms of service and make sure you're not breaking them. If not, it could be that your account was hacked. Change your password and security questions, then wait out the time.

Facebook tends to mark friend requests as spam if you send out too many per day. Only send out approx. 5 a day to be safe.

Sorry, we can't send your request Because sending requests to strangers is considered spam, your friend requests have been blocked for 14 days. Please visit the help center to learn more or let us...

Hi

Yes, facebook is preventing adding friends whom you do not know. Once you forcely do that you will be block adding friends for a couple of days as per their rules.

I suggest you send message to your friend to invite you to become you friend or neighbor in any games. In rare occassion, this might be allowed as he is not banned for adding friends. Regards

I created a new account on facebook and was adding friends from my previous account, and i got blocked. i really need to add people its been 3 days since i have been blocked!

It's up to Facebook when to allow you to create another account. I'd suggest using a pseudonym that your friends would know you by. Also use a different e-mail address if possible.

I can not add friends in Facebook..plez help me... *if i click add as friend then message appear like this.... "You have been blocked from adding friends because you repeatedly misused this feature. This...

Facebook has strict settings regarding the "mass add" emails people send out. If you add large numbers of friends (over 50 in a day) you will get this warning, and won't be able to add any more friends until tomorrow. If you haven't added that many friends today, this block should go away in a few hours, but you will have to enter a code word each time you add a friend. If you consistently get this block too many times, Facebook will actually suspend your account for a month or more. My suggestion is just to limit your friend requests to less than 50 each day (I would even try for less than 20 since you have been flagged already) and wait until tomorrow to add more friends. You can still accept as many as you want with no penalty.
Hope that helps and Good luck. :)
