The link above doesn't come up.

Interesting, no link... nor a share.

@ Michele, the link is working fine now.

So basically, a very DIY business that has a fan page or profile page can no longer use the platform to its fullest extent without talking with a Facebook account executive? This policy is going to crush a lot of user momentum and is inherently poorly worded at the moment.

FACE BOOK CAN CHANGE THE FACE OF THE WORLD. MISSION SMILE!

Where's the user input? I agree with Patrick and Aedan. This is a bad deal that ignores the needs of all but the largest users. It's overly restrictive and definitely prohibits many legitimate uses. For example, many small pages like to giveaway things to fans. Should they really have to ask for approval a week in advance *AND* require users to go through a separate application just to be able to give a $5 dollar gift certificate or free book as a thank-you to a fan? Please rethink.

i like that.

I like that too

I need more voices on my website....visit me pls.. www.future-way.com

This is good now how does a Tanzanian who doesn't have a credit card place adz on Facebook and use your marketing services?

So how do we get an account rep? I was going to host my very first giveaway on my fan page today and now I'm more confused. Please help the little guys!

This looks more like Facebook Marketing blocks vs solutions.. I understand the legal issues here, but you could your Terms & Conditions to indemnify you on any legal issues pertaining to giveaways. I think this is a miss.

So I can't even run a contest open only to fans? Really, this is too much! Please be flexible if you want to keep the momentum going!

i have some questions relating principles of marketing plz help me out?

I love the irony that a post by the Facebook Marketing Department includes a link that isn't clickable. Lead by example?

I think the new rules are also poorly worded and need some more expanding and explaining. We aren't all lawyers here. I think if it you don't try to reach out and help your user base (especially the small business guys) better understand this all, you are in essence just driving us all to Twitter. I'm sure you don't want that!

this is utterly ridiculous... could you please shed more light on this in layman's terms!? From what I understand these policies will CRUSH cheap and quick promotions... and you can't use facebook photos and videos? what? very sly facebook.

Oh the comedy. A FACEBOOK page that can't load an active link??? HA HA HA...

The link is broken people.
FIX IT
