It’s kind of weird to get these kinds of messages from facebook, who suppose to be the leading social network in today’s online world

I just hope that they will not join other social websites that deletes users for every small violation, and then by counting the deleted users as well take pride in having millions of active users.

This is a message one of my friend received when chatting with a legitimate friend in facebook

If it was spam, I could understand it. But to limit the number of messages between legitimate Facebook members is just unsocial and more suitable to the web 1.0 era.

I sent Facebook a question about the subject and here is their formal answer:

one of these features, Facebook has determined that you were going too fast.
These blocks can last anywhere from a few hours to a few days. Unfortunately, we cannot lift the block for you. When you are allowed to resume using this feature, please proceed with caution to avoid reaching the limit again. Please be aware that the threshold at which you are warned is not a specific number, but rather determined by different factors (such as speed, time, and quantity). For security reasons, we are unable to provide additional information about this system. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Thanks for your understanding,
User Operations
Facebook

In other words, it seems like Facebook does not want you to spent too much time in their website, or maybe they are planning a new marketing strategy that we are not aware of such as to start charging the heavy users monthly subscription fee…
