I want to thank everyone who stops by and visits my blog.  If you visit regularly but have not registered / subscribed or liked my facebook page, I’d like to ask if you wouldn’t mind doing so.  I post about 75% of all my blog posts to my facebook page and it goes without saying that those who register receive all my posts so you’ll never miss a Scruffy Sunday post like this handsome guy.

Special thanks to all of you who comment and regularly share a post with your social networks. I greatly appreciate all the support and kind words.

Now that I have your attention 🙂

Ever since Facebook threatened to delete my alter ego Bos Guy, I’ve struggled to transition people to the  blog page I was forced to set up, and I would like to try and get 4,000 likes.

If you have a Facebook account and haven’t liked my page, I’d ask that you do and if you have friends who you think might like what I write here, I’d also ask you encourage them to do the same.

Ever since Facebook threatened to delete my alter ego Bos Guy, I’ve struggled to transition people to the  blog page I was forced to set up.  I currently have approximately 3,500 likes for my BosGuy Blog Facebook page, but I would like to try and get 4,000 likes.

I don’t want to go into last month’s drama regarding Facebook’s threats to deactivate my account, but I would like to thank those of you who have a Facebook account and “liked” my FB blog page, facebook.com/BosGuyblog.

I’d also like to ask if you would help me by sharing the posts you like with your network of friends on Facebook.  I would like to see my blog page double the amount of likes it has over the next few months, and that can only happen through your help – so thank you in advance.

Like my blog page on Facebook.  It will make me feel ever so validated.

More than a few of you noticed that my public persona “BosGuy” suddenly changed on Facebook a couple weeks ago.  Facebook ambushed me and gave me an ultimatum to use my real name or my account would immediately be deleted.

Facebook has always been a distribution channel for my blog posts, and now that the page is no longer “BosGuy” it seems out of place so if you ‘befriended’ me to follow my posts, please like my blog’s page: BosGuy Blog Page.

The page now known as Robert Wilson will no longer host blog posts. Over the next few weeks I will ‘de-friend’ many.  This isn’t intended to hurt feelings but the Bos Guy page now known as “Robert Wilson” will actually reflect those with whom I spend time.

Thank you

Facebook photo that banned Jesse Jackman

My friend Jesse whom I posted on my blog here was recently banned from Facebook for sharing a photograph of him kissing his partner.  Not familiar with the story? Check out the HuffingtonPost write up here.

The publicity that ensued was able to get Facebook’s attention and they quickly rectified the situation telling HuffingtonPost “In this case, we [Facebook] mistakenly removed content and worked to rectify the mistake as soon as we were notified. We apologize for the inconvenience caused due to the removal of this content.” 

One wonders if my buddy Jesse didn’t have such an extensive social network what sort of recourse he would have?  Would he need to stop posting photos of him kissing his partner? Would cuddling or hugging be too risque and result in continued suspensions? The problem has been rectified and in a way (despite the unfortunate threats made by a few to Jesse & Dirk) the resulting press has hopefully helped to foster conversations about this policy and will make Facebook more sensitive to this in the future.

I’m curious – have you ever experienced this sort of censorship from Facebook?
