Owner of the Facebook group: Roman Cult of Mithras: His Mysteries, Mithraea and Worship. Owner of the blog: Meals with Mithras

VERY into the subject.

 
what exactly does it mean to be an "owner of a facebook group".. I set up a facebook group on philosophy and peace 15 years ago and have made thousands of valuable posts . two days it was hacked, and the name changed.. and I havent got a clue how to reassert my rights to ownership? or get it back ? just saying..
 
So... you *were* an owner, like me, prior to being hacked. Why don’t you start another group? Don’t let the hackers win if you love what you do. And now I will go download/backup my group again, to be on the safe side. Cheers.
