I know people can get weirdly hostile with others getting banned and needing help but, please don’t be overly harsh for at least a second, I’m being completely honest and genuine here, otherwise I wouldn’t be posting this.

Very sorry if this isn’t the place for this, please bear with me as reddit also keeps suspending and deleting my accounts (so can’t go there for help, very cool of you reddit 🙃), and tumblr email support hasn’t gotten back to me so, nowhere to go for help, these platforms have been really ban happy lately so I’m kinda locked out of most online places now adays. I miss the old internet man, this fucking sucks…

I’ll try my best to be as detailed as possible to demonstrate good faith:

I legitimately have no idea what’s going on, I haven’t been given a warning, an email, anything at all for me to go off of, I very seldom use Tumblr and only posted like, once or twice on there from time to time? (So definitely not spam…) I wasn’t reported or anything as far as I know, didn’t violate any rules either, didn’t do anything crazy compared to the literal porn bots flooding the place without restriction or the fully NSFW profiles on there that can just exist apparently (so if it’s “your being too naughty” then that’s definitely not it either, I was being far tamer then some of the stuff I’ve seen on there, though I’m getting mixed signals with tumblr on that, the platform can’t seem to decide whether or not it’s okay with adults existing or what, it’s not fun to navigate if you ask me lol), so I’m very much in the dark here, your guess is as good as mine.

I’ve emailed support, got nothing, followed up with them, and boom: termination, no explanation or anything, no responses, nothin’, found out by accident, same as reddit’s bullshit. Apparently others are also experiencing this? Automated systems being poopy at their jobs and randomly flagging people that aren’t even bots or malicious, and this has been going on for years it seems so, that fucking sucks, skeleton crew much? How do y’all survive that? 💀

My email didn’t get blocked, tumblr sends me a “email request received” when I email them, so not an issue with my email. Not an issue with a VPN either as, again, everything was fine for a while, then suddenly got double whammed with a shadowban and termination out of the blue. Shadowban happened a few days after I made a post, wasn’t instant, and the termination as soon as I followed up with support, so like, did they really not want me to email them again after a week and a half of nothing? No clue otherwise, again - nothing clear cut here for me to work off of, stuffs just happening out of nowhere.

Still wanted to be transparent incase something about my case was weird, mind you I’m not very familiar with tumblr culture or anything, so apologies if I should’ve known some things beforehand. If anyone can help, please do, message me and I’ll share my username on there or whatever helps, until then I guess I’ll wait for a month or something, and if they don’t respond then I’ll say my goodbyes to that platform and move on.

Though quick side question: when an account gets terminated, does everything get deleted with it? Is the username permanently gone as well? Is some stuff logged? What would happen if I make another account later on? Would they just instantly terminate it too? Or is all of that a mystery? Just asking.
