The rules are clear. Like with any other FFP I know of, FB members need to requalify every year to maintain their status. The OP obviously did not fly enough on Skyteam carriers to meet the threshold. FFPs' status grant benefits (bonuses, additional baggage allowance...). Why should airlines be too generous towards someone who did not give them much business over the past qualifying period?
I am always surprised that people don't pay more attention to their miles which, to me, are like money.
