How to Report People on Facebook
There are all types of people out there, and many of them have Facebook pages. Though using Facebook is a positive experience for most, there have been news reports about people who are bullied or offended while using the social networking site. Facebook does not support offensive behavior, and they need to know if someone is breaking rules.

For starters E-How Mr. Kingsley, Facebook does not have any rules against offensive behavior. "You will not post content that: is hateful, threatening, or pornographic; incites violence; or contains nudity or graphic or gratuitous violence", "You will not bully, intimidate, or harass any user" That is straight from the ToS and those are what users are allowed to report. What you or other people may find offensive, such as use of profanity or pictures that make situations seem humorous, others enjoy looking at for their entertainment value and we are tired of our pages being suspended or banned because just one person out their finds it offensive. For those out there that are facing bullying or harassment from other users then please feel free to report them but leave the others that are not personally trying to offend you alone. These people are simply using what they find humorous to try and bring laughter to others. You may not share the same values or views as them but that does not give you the right to report them. -
If I report someone on fb will they know who did it?
