I decided to switch to wix because tumblr decided to going bonkers of my old blog diemilchschnitte.tumblr.com. I still don't really know why but tumblr decided to suspend my official blog for being spam some mere days ago.
At first I was just unable to comment at my own blog posts. I didn't do anything weird that day - only posting the links to my new override mods. I reached out to them just to get a generic spam answer and with my blog being shut down immediately. No warnings beforehand, no further explanation what exactly the problem was and no one interested in my problem. I reached out again, just like they themselves suggested in their own generic email to me. And guess what? After leaving me hanging for almost 3 days, I got the SAME generic spam suspention answer like before. Now I asked AGAIN what exactly went wrong and how I can get my blog back. No answer whatsoever. Well .. I am deeply disturbed by this behaviour as - even IF I get back my blog at some point - I will never know when tumblr feels like acting out again. Deleting everything again.
I feel hateful although I don't like to feel that way because of a blog. But I put so much time and my whole heart into it and I just feel helpless regarding tumblr support that I have to keep breathing to push away those maddening feelings. I had my wip progression documentation there. I had tutorials there, incl. pictures. All gone. When they decided to suspend the blog I didn't even had time to export the blog.
Sooo. What was my conclusion? I lost trust in tumblr and looked for an alternative, just to stumble upon wix and thought to give it a go. Now I am again investing freetime I barely have and would like to put into modding, to design a website to present all my mods.
But it will be ok I guess. Can't change what's out of your reach to change. Or how would my grandparents say? "You never know what it was good for".
For now I'll look forward to build something new. Wish me luck on the website tinkerin as I am a complete noob :D
