How I Got Kicked Off of Facebook For Being Too Awesome (& Why You're Still Seeing Posts)

I recently got kicked off of facebook. It was a bit heartbreaking for a couple reasons. My first thought was to the ten years of photos that I had saved there and no where else. From my adventures through Ecuador, to the birth of my nephew, all those are gone. Secondly, and this is probably surprising considering I'm fucking Jin N Tonic, but I actually really don't like offending anyone. So to be accused of being SO offensive that they had to remove me entirely, actually upset me. And then of course the biggest issue, is how much facebook is used in my line of work.

Before getting kicked off I had spent three FULL days adding new connections in the NE as I was preparing for my first DC-Baltimore-Philly-NYC tour. There was plenty of them who I had messaged, and promised to follow up with, that I then lost contact with. While I don't book directly through FB, that's still bad for business. And it's nice to get to know people outside of email.

The biggest loss however was some of the private modeling groups I was a part of. I've been modeling full-time for three years now, and was honored and excited to be in these groups with so many other models that I have looked up to and admired. 'I've made it' I thought. It felt good getting to 'that next level' and interacting with these other models. Not only are they amazing, gracious, and beautiful people inside and out, but the groups were a tool to help and also to warn each other. I know there's this whole scandal going on about a public "Photographer Black List." None of us were that unprofessional, but we were able to share our experiences both good and bad, and offer contacts and hosts and just advice in general. I hate that I lost that.

Odds are good that I'll be making a new facebook page though, mainly for those reasons. I've gotten asked why I got shut down many, many times now though, and thought I would lay it all out.

It began on a day like any other..

If you recall, I had just spent three days adding and introducing myself to new photographers, film makers, models, make up artists, studio owners, and more, all in the North East, as I preparing for my first ever NE tour. I had actually just set up an event page to which I had invited all my new and current contacts, letting them know that I would be in the area and would love to shoot, hang, dance, chat, whatever. It was when I went to pick the photo for that event that I got the notice from the Facebook Police.

Hey. We Removed your Post for Nudity. You cannot Post again for 7 days.

Picture

The post itself was a video that I had shared from my amazing friend Kristy Jessica aka Rebel. She'd made a great behind the scenes video from 15 days of travels, which included a lot of our time together at the Arizona Shoot Out Event. Being the supportive person I am, I shared it. In fact, I was one of many people who shared it, and two others shared it from me. So why am I in trouble! I didn't pick the damn thing!

They were right though, the thumbnail was in fact of two nekkid ladies. And while I can hardly help that, it was more than fair that I got "in trouble."

Here's a link to That Video (I show up right around 9:50). I'm sure it goes without saying at this point that it is NSFW.

What that report led to though, was another verification process over my name. As many of you know, many individuals are having to change or close their accounts due to this name verification bullshit being held by Fascistbook. I had already gone through this process once before, and successfully proved that "Jin N Tonic" is my authentic name. The moderators this time though were not nearly as reasonable, and it took a week of emails back and forth until I got the right person in the right mood on the right day before I got my account OKd to be reactivated. 

Yay!!!
I was excited. 

I logged in and had just one more hurdle before my belated newsfeed binge: Proving I am a person by identifying the friends in the following photos (because you know, no one has friends on facebook that they don't personally know in real life and, also, you know, nobody looks at all different in real life than they do in their photos sooo....).

That last one was a bit of a curveball (it was three different people), but luckily I was able to identify the required 5/6 and was Cleared to Pass! Extra Yaaays!!

I survived the friend-recognition gauntlet however, just to be slammed in the face with this page:

Picture

You may or may not have noticed, but none of those three images contain any kind of sexually explicit image or language to my knowledge (although I do look pretty damn hot in that black wig).

I immediately sent in an appeal. I promised to do everything in my power to follow the FB guidelines to a T and that I appreciated their policies set in place for the safety of all FB users (a little flattery never hurts - and it's true, they think they're helping). I also explained that everything I share is designed to educate and/or entertain and that, while much of my art form could be considered sexual since human beings are inherently sexual creatures, my work is never, ever explicit, all nudity is censored, and the resulting images come from an artistic place.

Their answer was a definite and deafening N.O.

Enter, Heartbroken Jin.

As mentioned, I will likely rebuild, if they'll let me. I've been in a state of mourning, and of course traveling though, so have not made the commitment just yet. You may have noticed though that I have found a loophole and the JNT Fanpage is still up and kicking! This is all thanks to my promotions assistant, who was also an admin on my FB page before I got shut down, so I'm now logged in through his account, and still able to post.

So be sure to go like it, dammit! And you can also find most of the same posts on my instagram.

Think it's bullshit that I got shut down? Yeah, me too.

Happy Jin is Happy, over on IG!


Apparently I'm considered sexually explicit, but Douche Fuck who has a Cock as his profile picture and 3,000 friends is doing just fine. I'm actually a bit surprised. I know us models are fairly infamous for our 'haters,' but I don't believe in those, and of all the shit that I've posted I've only ever had to take down a couple photos, and only ever got in trouble one other time, coincidentally also for a thumbnail, that time to a website link that I had no idea even had an image until it was removed.

It's ok though, I figured the universe was just letting me know that I waste entirely too much time on that website anyway (and I miss the shit out of it!). I do truly miss my biggest FB supporters though. Hopefully you guys have found me on other platforms by now.. <3
