    Hey guys,

    its happening again, we need your help very urgently.
    Maybe you already noticed it by yourself that Facebook does not allow to post the link xsimulator.net because of any (unwanted) error. I investigate it a little bit and its obviously that Facebook blocked our domain. I can only assume the reason is that the domain xsimulator.net has been in the hand of a malicious group which used it for bad content before we reserved it.
    (Yea stupid from myself not to have checked that earlier)

    Try it out:
    1. Log into your Facebook account
    2. Post the URL www.xsimulator.net

    A windows pops up which says:

    facebook_blocked.PNG

    I send several manual requests to Facebook to unblock our domain but they did not react until now.
    So, we need your help to send further small request to the Facebook team to unblock our URL.

    Its easy and reading this post lasted probably longer than doing the request;)
    1. Log in to your Facebook account
    2. Go to this page: https://www.facebook.com/help/contact/571927962827151
    3. Copy and paste somethink like:
    Dear Facebook Team,

    it seems that you blocked the domain xsimulator.net for no obvious reason and i want to ask you to unblock it after you have checked it and think its safe.

    Thank you very much!

    Yours,

    xx

    Hope that helps when different people are doing a similar request.
    Feel free to give me a better suggestion for the letter.

    Parallel i will send a real letter to the Facebook Headquarter.

    Thank you very much guys
