How can I be blocked if I was never a member. All I can think is maybe I tried to sign up to the group when I first started looking at Oliver more than a year ago, but didn’t answer the questions! I know some of these private groups sometimes have two or three questions, I don’t always answer those questions. If that’s the case, how on earth can I explain/plead my case to the administrator of this Facebook group if I can’t even find it on Facebook?! 2 2023 Elite II, Hull# 1386, Lithium Platinum Package (640AH, 400W Solar, 3000W Xantrex Inverter) Truma water heater & AC TV: 2024 Silverado 2500HD 6.6L 10-Speed Allison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators SeaDawg Posted June 15, 2023 Moderators Share Posted June 15, 2023 Your best bet is to message one of their admins, via Facebook. They've had their own issues with spammers, and have blocked/deleted a bunch of folks, I think. I'll send you a list of their admins, via pm here. Also could try pming a member here, who is a top contributor there, but not an admin. I don't spend a lot of time on Facebook, and I am not on their admin team. 2008 Ram 1500 4 × 4 2008 Oliver Elite, Hull #12 Florida and Western North Carolina, or wherever the truck goes.... 400 watts solar.

Dear members, Due to some issues that have arisen, and our desire to be consistent in application of our group rules, we have decided to eliminate Pages as members, and to also eliminate members who use obviously fake names. The purpose of this group is to be a friendly, helpful band of fellow travelers. The group is classified as Private, meaning only members can read posts. This protects us from scammers. We will be culling our member list, and contacting those members who are not using their real names. People who have experienced having their Facebook accounts scammed or cloned should know that the fact that the group is Private helps prevent those types from infiltrating the group. Also the due diligence of your administrators in vetting new join requests helps keep you safe. To increase your personal account safety, you should go to your privacy settings, and make sure your selection on who can see your posts is “friends only”. 6 Steve, Tali and our dog Rocky plus our beloved Storm, Lucy, Maggie and Reacher (all waiting at the Rainbow Bridge) 2008 Legacy Elite I - Outlaw Oliver, Hull #026 | 2014 Legacy Elite II - Outlaw Oliver, Hull #050 | 2022 Silverado High Country 3500HD SRW Diesel 4x4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Morris Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 There are a lot of Oliver owners on the Facebook group that are not on this forum. So I would guess that there are also prospective buyers there that don’t know about this forum. I do not do anything on Facebook except groups. My personal account is locked down with zero info, no friends requests, no location, etc. it’s just a means to use groups that I’m interested in learning about. Case in point: we ordered two Gazelle e-bikes. There’s next to zero forum activity anywhere , but an extremely active Facebook owner’s group. So that’s where I need to go if I want to learn more about our new bikes. Same with our Hiker trailer. The only online activity at all is a Facebook group. 1 ----- Steve - Northern Ohio, USA Wandering around on occasion, always lost. 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser - 2023 Oliver Elite II Twin Hull #1360 “Curiosity” Facebook - Instagram Camped in Curiosity = Green —— Visited with Curiosity = Gray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John E Davies Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 Well, thanks, maybe a current FB member could help me out by posting a Heads Up message and a link to my "Mouse" ad in the FB For Sale group. Is that allowed? I don't want to break my social media abstinence quite yet. I did post on my local Craigslist. That will show up in any nationwide "Oliver For Sale" Google search.

I see your point, but so what? It is a free and painless process… I don’t see that being any kind of impediment for somebody looking for an Ollie. If they can’t be bothered to join the primary support and sales forum for the brand, they are probably very unlikely to follow through on a purchase anyway. Seriously … They can go jump in a lake IMHO.
