Yeah— we logged in last night and WATCHED the “messages” icon disappear from our activity//notifs…. we have absolutely no idea what’s going on, and thought it to be a minor issue that would fix itself over night, but we awake to find it’s still missing and have no ideas on how to start fixing it. there was whispers of tumblr shadow banning accounts for no particularly reason about three years back in a reddit chain we stumbled upon with these same problem, and considering this account has nothing to do with any explicit//evil themes there should be no reason why we’re being affected— we never violated any TOS either…. at least we don’t think??? it’s really perplexing our brain currently…

Any other entity going through this??

any other entity have any ideas?

╰┉┈◦ೋ•◦❥• PART TWO

I WAS ALREADY GONNA MAKE A POST ON THIS BUT YES >0< !!

— so with my career and stuff I've learnt by paying close attention to social media and how algorithms and stuff work, I know a lot about how to catch people's attention online (bit iffy when it comes to tumblr as im still getting used to it) but here's a few things I've learnt.

- im not entirely successful lols but these things will help if you're not doing them already !!

1. AESTHETICS

- first glances are so so important, you need to make a good impression and draw people in !! make it pretty but not with a confusing layout !! I know a lot of people use cursive fonts and things similar but its hard for people to read and will just discourage people from even trying to read it

2. RELATABILITY

- this is a HUGE one. it also relates to aesthetics, if you are not inclusive, people wont always read your work.

everyone looks different, speaks different and copes differently.

if you have a moodboard or even the images at the top of a fic that includes a person, it can be really off-putting for those who cant see themselves in that image.

similar, if you write in people wearing specific clothes or give them specific body types and hair types then you're cutting off a huge chunk of ur viewers ! for reader inserts you need to ensure everyone can actually insert themselves into it, it can be super distracting to read a fic where the person whos supposed to be you is just so far from you !!

3. PERSONALITY

- obviously we aren't celebrities or anything remotely close on here, but to be a successful blog you need to be memorable !!

usernames can really help! there's a thousand accounts on here with different variations of the spelling of the word sturniolo and things similar which makes it so hard so distinguish blog from blog ! if its something different, people will actually recognise you !! this is also why themes are important !! make urself unique and stand out !!

this links to aesthetics again, but if you write for different aus, give each one a set layout ! use specific dividers for specific aus so that its recognisable, at the same time change them slightly as in swapping maybe one image out for each blurb so that people dont think they've seen that blurb already so they scroll past !!

essentially, be urself !! people always wanna find a new favourite blog, they dont want a carbon copy of someone they already follow !! sounds super corny but genuinely dont be afraid to be urself because personality draws people in - dont be robotic, be enthusiastic because people want to follow a person, not a machine ! :3

4. CONTENT

- I never think people should force themselves to write smut to "fit in", ESPECIALLY if you are not comfortable with it !! it will only spoil your writing experience and its why a lot of people quit when they just start their accounts

a lot of people say start with blurbs which i think I personally shouldve done, but if you have a series you want to do, just do it !! for smut, doing blurbs is probanly the better way to go but for angst and fluff writers I dont think either is better than the other !

dont focus on gaining followers, focus on building YOUR OWN audience, otherwise you'll have a bunch of followers that dont wanna see the same type of things that you wanna write.

write down every idea you have !! write everything you want to !! there's someone out there desperate to see your fics even if you think people aren't looking for it

okay so this is the creator and yk I'm not a Tumblr expert but I thought I had it down

I want to make another blog, maybe another ask me blog

Would I need another account or what??

I see other people have other blogs along with ask me blogs and even different usernames 😫 do they have different accounts???

Apparently tumblr will auto-ban you/terminate your account if they detect that you’re using a VPN. And they won’t even send you a warning or an email about it.

On top of emailing staff about it like the termination page tries to get you to do (though I don’t suppose this does much), I would suggest contacting @tumblr or @TumblrSupport on Twitter, AND using the following Reddit post to ping the OP for assistance:

Others also suggested using a DIFFERENT email to contact [email protected], since tumblr sometimes blocks the email associated with your account (helpful!! /s)

So, I'm a Jing Yuan main and my JY team is about my only built team atm. So, out of the list:
