did you guys hear about gooseworx deleting her tumblr account? i personally checked tumblr and reddit and it seems it's true. can you guys confirm or deny this recent rumour?
man it's always something with the tadc fandom isn't it
anyway thank you guys for your work keeping up with Glitch's posts and have a nice day :)
For context: A couple hours ago, Gooseworx's Tumblr account has suddenly disappeared and it has left people worried. She has not made a post prior to the situation on any of her socials. At the time this ask is answered, she has not made a comment about this either.
We emphasized before that rumors should not be trusted blindly, so it is a good thing to ask first. We'll do our best to clarify things here.
As it currently is, the Tumblr is showing the error page, the standard "the blog no longer exists in this url/handle, otherwise you found the error page". For the question rather this blog has been deleted or under a new handle, we experimented with a dummy account and both scenarios end up with the same error page. It is entirely possible that Goose may have deleted/renamed her blog, yes. However, Tumblr is also well-known to have both technical difficulties and account revisions, so this may not have even been manual from her side either.
By one key fact: the url needs to contain the word "deactivated" and a string of numbers, in order to be considered fully deleted.
Since her url currently doesn't, it more likely that Tumblr has banned her blog, which will have a couple of days to resolve with customer support. Though, this is too soon to call; we would have to wait for at least 24 hours in case her url changes.
Not until Goose herself comes out to confirm it, then we will know for sure. Regardless, whatever the case it may be, we ask everyone to please be patient and respectful about the situation. It's understandable to ask her, but don't spam either; she'll say it when she's ready. If is was her decision to deactivated after all, this should be respected too. We'll be keeping an eye on it and let you all know of any update. Thank you, and have a good timezone!
