Help with the Tyranids Facebook page

[riverzora]

Hey - wondering if there’s any cross pollination between these communities - I seem to have been banned and blocked from Tyranids Facebook this evening and I have no idea why :s

I’m pretty active on the page and have been for many years now. Not sure what the sudden ban is about. My last post was a post discussing the legacy names on the genealogies from the 3rd and 4th edition fluff. Comments mentioning the Dominatrix a lot so maybe that set off an alarm? Genuinely no clue otherwise.

I understand if there’s no link between the communities but figured I’d try!

Also if this is the wrong board for this thread feel free to move/delete what have you!

Peace and love

Which group is this? I'm on one of them.

The one that’s just called Tyranids. Also the 40K Tyranids one I was banned before even answering the intro questions but not bothered about that one as I’ve never been a part. The Tyranids group I’ve even made the cover photo once or twice so it’s a real shame I can’t be involved anymore

Ok, PM me with your facebok account name, I'll see what I can do about it.

Is it the one with a Harridan background?

The group has rules posted. Did you break one of these?

RULES
1: This is a group primary for Tyranids.
Genestealer Cults are allowed as they are closely related. Posts of other factions will be deleted.

2: All models shown must be GW models, all parts must be GW parts.
Green Stuff and plasticard (or similar hobby supplies) are allowed. FW models are considered as GW models. We do understand that some people use 3rd party parts and models, recasts, 3D-printed parts and models and so on, but drawing the line and making the call from case to case if it’s a legal model or an infringement of GW IP is just too much admin with 10k members.

3: Keep the group positive.
No insulting, no spam, no discrimination, no racism, no personal attacks, no illegal requests in general. Respect eachother and most importantly of all: have fun! (and nom)

4: No negative comments on models
There are no badly painted models and no one should ever be ashamed to post their work.
If you don’t like a model, just don’t click “like” and scroll past it. If the painter asks for feedback, try to keep it constructive.

5. No non-40k related material, this includes political or religious tie ins.

6. No buying, selling, trading, or giveaways/contests and No promoting or advertising.

7. No posting or sharing of copyrighted material.
This includes screenshots/photos from GW or FW books, magazines, or e-books, assembly instructions for models, links to sites with these materials and leaked material from GW or FW. Material made public by GW on their websites or Warhammer Community page may be shared.
Exception: If you have a rules question, you may post a picture of that rule alongside your question.

8. Follow the rules - or leave the group
If you break the rules, you will be banned. We do understand that some people would prefer other rules, then feel free to leave the group and join a group or start a group that suits your needs better. Consider this group as our house. You may visit, stay and have fun – but you have to follow our rules.

9: No arguing with an admin about the rules
This will result in a ban without warning, and you will be blocked. Blocking an admin will also be an instant ban. If you have any problems, feel free to contact an admin in PM.

10: This is a friendly group with thousands of members, this is not anyone's personal safe space.
This is social media, you will not like all posts and you will not like all members.
You cannot report posts just because you don't like them or feel personally offended.
If you report a post that doesn't clearly break any of the group rules - you will be banned.

Nope - not in the slightest 😕

Again - been a member for like a decade and have been the cover photo more than once. Never even had a warning before suddenly being booted. I just wish I knew what I did!

I PMed a couple of admins but never got any word back, I don't know what's going on
