If this is true, it could be a part of Facebook&#8217;s &#8220;load balancing&#8221; mechanism, whereby they distribute the workload &#8212; such as web browser requests &#8212; across many of their servers. Technically, load balancing is defined as the methodical and efficient distribution of network or application traffic across multiple servers in a server farm. But even with that, if the load becomes too great, maybe Facebook simply prevents a certain region of the world from sharing or commenting for a short period of time until the load on their servers lightens a bit. But this is just a guess on my part.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, it could also be that Facebook has purposely restricted you personally, because you have been posting, commenting, sharing or tagging too fast. I discuss these issues in some of my other BBB Blog posts. Basically, if you surpass the hourly or daily quotas which they have set for a particular activity, they may in fact restrict you for hours, days, weeks or longer. Many Facebook users refer to this as being thrown in jail. Again, I have written a few blog posts about this issue as well.
