Please don’t fucking log off tumblr on the 17th as a protest. All that’s going to do is give tumblr more reason to shut this place down because of revenue loss.

This is blatantly untrue
Companies do not experience one day of revenue loss and pull the plug, destroying years of work and firing dozens if not hundreds of employees.
Companies which experience loss in revenue and consumer interest make investments and changes in order to regain their users/customers. That’s why organized protests and boycotts WORK. Tumblr will NOT go down after one bad day or week, but they might be willing to listen to its userbase if we put up an organized protest. (If you don’t believe me, think about how long sites like MySpace and Google+ hang around with fractions of their previous user base, often for years.)
Yahoo paid over one billion dollars for Tumblr, and the website will not go offline because of a one-day event, so in conclusion,
DO log off on December 17th to show Tumblr that you disapprove of its recent content ban and clumsy execution of censorship.
Please reblog this version of the post to stop the spread of misinformation.
STEP ONE. get new xkit extension from chrome store.
STEP TWO. make sure you have the MASS+ extension enabled in new xkit.
You can then (one more time) just click the SELECT THE FIRST 100 POSTS and add a tag (any tag). After the second batch (after the first 200 posts in each month) you will have to
Click UNSELECT.
Manually select the thumbnails for the next 100 posts.
Add tag.
Repeat as necessary until you get to the next month, at which point you can click ‘select the first 100 posts’ and just keep going until you reach the end of your blog’s posts.
This /should/ be a step by step to the process I used to fix the order posts were appearing on my blog and where some posts didn’t seem to be showing up at all, etc.
Hey all, I know there’s a lot of what the heck is going on issue, and here’s some information I gathered:
You can post, people can see it on their dash, but when you go to a blog, it is not on their first page.
You can only access it in their archives.
Or on another page, but it is out of order.
This is frustrating, especially if you’re NOT an explicit blog.
As a content creator, this is extra frustrating.
I’m positive this is a bug as they fix the filtering systems, however, here’s what I suggest in the meantime:
Stop your Queue/Don’t post new creative content (or do so, but know it won’t show on your first page)
Update your bio to let followers know that you are indeed active and where to find new posts
Send an email to staff, such as this:
Hello,
While my recent posts appear on the dashboard, they are not appearing on the first page of my blog. Instead, they can only be accessed through the archive or on other pages, but out of order. Is this currently a sitewide bug due to correcting the filtering system? Have I been muted, and if so, what would be the reason for this and what can I do to correct it? As a content creator this is detrimental.
Thank you and best regards,
(Your name)
I’m sure this will be fixed as it appears to be a widespread issue. But until then, let’s stay calm.
