The Meme-Lord Enters

Alright kids, listen up because @staff have pulled off a corker of a hot mess and have decided to add "Community Labels". I guess they've decided we can't be trusted to add our own warnings and people can't make sensible choices with what they engage with.

But why does it matter to me?

Tumblr have made labels AN OPT IN SITUATION which means every single blog here is automatically set to hide any triggering content

If you want to continue to be able to access and read fanfiction PLEASE go into your settings and click "show" on at least the "Mature" and "Sexual Themes" labels!!

ALSO IOS USERS: there's an extra fun "Hide additional content" bit just to really try and block us from any hopes of success. Make sure you opt out of that too otherwise I think content will be blocked on the mobile app!

Attached to this post are screenshots from my settings so you guys know what to look for. I could only find it on my desktop settings and not on the mobile app (for now at least)

rp admins,

please be aware that tumblr is deactivating group rp MAIN accounts left and right without warning for violating community guidelines of “using your blog with the primary purpose of affiliate marketing and deceptive means to generate traffic/revenue.” (this is language taken directly from the email you get if you inquire about why your account was deleted).

to be clear: this is not just your promo sideblog. your ACCOUNT IS BEING DELETED without warning. this INCLUDES YOUR MAIN and all the information stored on it. several roleplays have already been the victim of this.

back up the things you keep on your main.

if you have time, please email support expressing your concern for this action. below is a draft of the email i sent if you would like to use it. it is extremely important we express to them that this is causing a huge problem within the roleplay community which has lived on tumblr for a great number of years on this model.

if you run a rph blog, please consider reblogging this. thank you.

please also consider joining the findrps discord server ( link in source ), which allows you to promote your rp to over 500 people ( and growing !! ).

Reminder to donate!!! I got mine today and for the first time in my life I used my card online because this is extremely important to keep this place running. Please donate as much as you can!!!

TIS THE SEASON yet i have not had my dashboard graced by 

A swat cat

If you could either donate (any amount from $1 will help) or signal boost to increase visibility, I would greatly appreciate it as much as I hate to get on my knees and beg. But at this point, I have no other choice. I can also only hope I have not lost my job over what happened.

I don’t know what to do at this point. I can’t lose the house. My mother already has failing health. She’s already taking pills for blood pressure, iron, thyroid, cholesterol, arthritis, and depression. Losing the house would be too much for her and likely kill her…I don’t want that to happen…she’s my only parent left after losing dad. I can’t afford to pick up a second job due to my hours. She’s not old enough to get her widow’s benefits from social security. She has to be 60, she’s 59 and she won’t be 60 until April 10th which is too long to wait and we already lose the house then.
