if my tumblr gets deleted don’t try and find me. i’ll finally have time to learn how to use a loom. i’ll be somewhere making yarn out of sheep’s wool i got from a friend in exchange for some honey from my own bees. i’ll be happy. leave me alone.
if my blog deletes here is a list of places to find me:
Was always intended. It was going to happen regardless because Oath/Verizon don’t think anyone wants to advertise on a site with porn on it. This is probably why they didn’t bother handling the porn bots and CP, since for the last 6-12 months they’ve been working to scrub the site either way.
Only then Apple took them off the app store, pushing up their timeline.
This was done for advertising reasons. Which also means this isn’t going to stop either. Give it 6 months and there’ll be some hit piece on Tumblr by whatever news outlet and they’ll purge something else. What will it be? LGBT themes? Political discussion? Copyrighted material (Fandoms)?
In the quest for more money, Verizon made it clear. Nothing is above sacrificing for the ad revenue. Don’t get comfy. You’ll be next.
THIS IS MY DASH COMPLETELY REFRESHED MEANING THIS IS THE MOST RECENT POST
I CLICK ON THE BLOG AND
IT DOESNT FUCKING EXIST ON DASH VIEW AND WHEN I GO TO THE URL
IT SHOWS THEIR MOST RECENT POST BEING 3 HOURS AGO AND THIS IS HAPPENING TO MULTIPLE BLOGS IF NOT ALL
You can and probably should reblog this because this is much much more likely to kill this site than the flagging thing
This is happening when i tested on you @ryukotatsuma – checked to see your commission reblurg and even this and all I saw last was the rice post being flagged :
They’re turning your explicit content private, yes. But they are not deleting your entire blog, everything else will be public. You can still support our work and post other content! We need you guys so please please please don’t delete your blogs as disheartening this all is.
Fic authors, ever wanted to hold your story in your hand like a published book? Well, I did some digging and I found a way to! The company just prints a single book, no editing, no marketing, no putting it on any official published book lists, so there’s no copyright issues here. It’s not publishing. It’s just printing like an actual book. Pretty cheap too, as far as I was able to see! So yeah! Go hold your fic in your hand as an actual book! I plan on doing it!
Nice!
I HAVE WAITED MY WHOLE LIFE FOR THIS IM GONNA PRINT SO MANY FAN FICS FOR MYSELF
O_O
Oh.
Oh no.
I was LITERALLY just coming to Tumblr to make a post and show my newly bound published fic-book! I used Lulu.com – it was less than $7!!
anyway so i just read through the new posts tumblr & tumblr support put out about this and here’s the low-down for my fellow members of the rpc:
written content containing “erotica” is still allowed – aka you can still write all your smut
nudity found in art like sculptures & illustrations is also fine – this does not include gifs of scenes from tv shows, movies, etc. that have explicit material such as genitalia and sexually explicit acts
if you’ve reblogged sexually explicit (visual) content and were not the original poster of it, you have nothing to worry about – tumblr is contacting the poster & it will likely be removed from tumblr and therefore your blog
aka save it to your computer if you really really want it i guess
this process isn’t going to be perfect – some things you think are fine will be flagged & vice versa. give it time.
also if there’s anything you’re the original poster of that is flagged & you disagree, you can appeal it to tumblr
if your blog was flagged as explicit, that is now obsolete by these new guidelines – your blog will still be overlaid with a content filter when viewed directly
