What's the justification for deleting apps that grow too fast?

• catch23 16y ago
  In the past, lots of scammy/spammy apps grew fast by bribing the user to invite all of their friends etc. But you have to grow pretty fast for FB to see this and delete you, I doubt anyone can replicate that growth now since lots of the viral features were removed. Seems like the only way to mass a huge audience is to buy it with FB ads.

  They are assumed to be spammy. My strategy for adopting the new api was to move the userbase from an existing app to a new one. Fb deleted the new app in the middle of the migration.
