Facebook group harassment help?

If you already reported it, give it time. Facebook has 250 million users. Reviewing reports and taking care of everyone's drama doesn't happen instantaneously.

Keep in mind that people submit frivolous reports all the time. I suspect Facebook's harassment threshold to be rather steep. If it's a group poking harmless fun, and the butt of the joke reported it because they have no sense of humor.

I suppose it has to be really severe harassment for Facebook to intervene; like clearly threatening or psychotic stalker language or something.

"Slander" is an often misunderstood word and people use it to suggest their feelings were hurt. Defamatory words are legally defined as the issuance of false statements with the intent to damage to one's character or reputation. "Character or reputation" does not include ego. Saying someone cheats on their wife when they know it isn't true would be considered slander; saying that person as a small penis, true or not, is not slander.

Unless these people in the group are saying things that grossly attack his character, it's not slander, and there is no reason Facebook should get involved. Making fun of your husband online may not sit well with you guys, and it may even get ugly, but it's still fair game.

People knowing where he works or when isn't a big deal at all. Your place of employment, especially if you have any sort of contact with the public, is hardly a private matter. This is not personal information. His details of employment (such as how much he gets paid, responsibilities, etc.) are a personal matter, but not the fact that he is employed or where he works.

I suggest you ignore it. People will still make fun, regardless of you or your husband knowing about it. Trying to contain and control it is a fruitless effort.

And unless you tell us what kind of "personal information" is being posted, this is the kind of sentiment you will receive. You give us a vague problem, we provide a vague solution. That's how this works.
