changes

Deleted accounts can now be recovered up to 30 days later

We’re making a big change to how account deletion works on Tumblr, and we’re really excited about it, because this is something that some of you have been requesting for… well… a literal decade.

Before today, when you deleted your Tumblr account, it was immediate and permanent. Occasionally, this resulted in Very Sad Times. Even though we’ve tried to make it super difficult to accidentally delete your account, this is something that still happens a lot. Like, a lot. There’s also plenty of folks who delete their account on purpose, but then regret it shortly afterward. Worst of all, if your account was hacked, and then deleted by the hacker, there was no way to get it back.

All of these problems are *poof* no more. As of today, when you delete your account, we will keep your data for 30 days. Your account will remain recoverable during that time, and you can contact us within that 30 day window if you’d like us to restore your account.

Eventually, we hope to make this process a bit easier, and allow you to restore your account with a single click of a button. For right now, though, you’ll need to contact us via tumblr.com/support and choose the category “Account Access” > “I have deleted my account or blog by accident”.

FAQs

How do I delete my account? Does that process look different now?

You can follow the steps here to delete your account on the web or through the mobile app, which works pretty much the same way as before. You’ll notice we’ve updated the confirmation screen to reflect the new process, though.

Does a deleted account still appear on Tumblr during this 30 day window?

Nope. As soon as you submit the request to delete your account, all of your blogs will no longer be accessible (they’ll 404), no one will be able to message you, your posts will no longer appear in search results, and you won’t be able to log in anymore. This happens right away, not 30 days later. Deleted accounts still behave exactly as they always have.

What about my email address and username? Will those become available again immediately after account deletion, like they did before?

Notably, no, they will not. In order to make it possible for the account to be restored during the 30 day window, the username and email address must remain associated with the account during that time. So they won’t be available to register again until 30 days after you’ve deleted your account.

If you’re deleting your account, and you already know that you’d like to use the same username or email address on a new account immediately afterward, we recommend that you change your username and email address before deleting the account. That way, they will become available right away, instead of being on hold for 30 days.

What if I’ve accidentally deleted one of my sideblogs, but not my entire account?

If you delete a sideblog, it will be deleted right away, and cannot be restored. We can only restore an entire account (which will restore all of its blogs along with it).

Is this feature retroactive? Can you restore the account I deleted two years ago?

As much as we would like this to be possible, the answer is no. We still haven’t perfected the art of time travel, so all accounts deleted before today are still deleted for good. This new change will only apply to accounts which are deleted after this announcement is posted.

Where can I learn more about the account deletion process?

You can check out our support documentation and Privacy Policy. Both have been updated to reflect these changes.

*squints at y'all never got back about my scammer-deleted account and it's been way longer than 30 days*

"You could get up early and do it before work" I could also wait for a magic beanstalk to start growing in my living room LMAO. Let's focus on things that happen in the real world

Pokémon Fans: "It'd be great to have a game where you can have Every Pokémon In Existence."

Pokémon Company: "Best we can do is add paid DLC that lets you catch like 150 more than the base game. :)"

You're leaving out like 700 more.

And maybe it is a monumental task to have over 1000 Pokémon in one game. The models. The animations. Blah, blah.

But that's your own damn fault for continuing to make new ones. You started this company with the phrase, "Gotta Catch 'Em All," and now you can't let people catch 'em all in one fucking game. Hubris.

So far, my shinies for Z-A have been:

Fletchling

Pidgey

Patrat.

.....

I fucking hate Patrat. Why must you give me the fuck ass rat, game?

I hear it's stupid weep-weeps in my sleep.

So, I'm pretty far into Legends Z-A, and I know all the way up to the end of the base game story.

And, while I will admit that it outshines, like, every game since, like. Sun and Moon in terms of getting the hardware to do what they have in their vision... And I *am* enjoying playing it.

I miss the difficulty. Still.

The gameplay is designed with game mechanics in mind. It does this very well. They balanced it accordingly to their vision. But like.

Because battles are real-time and moves are on countdown timers instead of using PP and you can run your Pokémon out of danger at any time...

*Old woman voice* Back in my day, you had to use Fire Blast sparingly because it only had 5 uses, unless you gave an item to your Pokémon to increase the PP available for said move, which only increased it by one.

I have an Alpha Gardevoir that knows Icy Wind, Magical Leaf, Moonblast, and Psychic. It is the Dragon Killer. It is also the Ghost and Dark Killer. Because its speed stat makes most mons try to use Shadow Ball and my Gardevoir just goes, "Pokémon Asplode," and the enemy drops dead before it can get the move off.

And you would think that shouldn't be something to complain about. But it makes battles last a handful of seconds. And the experience gained, which goes to every Pokémon, means, if you are battling trainers every night, you are grossly overleveled if you stick with the same team all the time.

And I am an old fart who picks their favorite 6 and calls it a day, until the end of the game, where it then becomes Pokédex time.

Spend half the damn game intentionally using weaker Pokémon that aren't my main team just to make it interesting because, otherwise, it's like, "I see you have a creature weak to Grass. Go, Meganium! Giga Drain. And it's dead. Oh, you have a Ghost? Well. Go, Lopunny! Brutal Swing. See ya!"

I just. I'm gonna finish this game so fast, when I used to spend over a hundred hours in the older games..training Pokémon. And the modern games make them feel like they training themselves.

saanphoenix2

The moves they learn? You can assign them at any time, regardless of when you evolved a Pokémon.

So, like. If I have an Eevee, train it up to level 40, only then evolve it, it will be able to "remember" the moves its evolution woulda known at. Like. Level 20. When it was never a Lv. 20 whatever evolution.

And I'm like. *squint*

Because part of the strategy of Pokémon was deciding what moves you wanted to learn and what you were comfortable forgetting.

Now, you can just switch them out whenever. And since TMs don't break after using them... Have Lopunny forget Ice Punch to learn Thunder Punch to take out mons weak to that and then teach it Ice Punch again because fuck Dragons.

Or switch out Gardevoir's Magical Leaf for Mystical Fire and then switch it back!

I don't have to actually strategize if my Pokémon entire moveset continues to exist in its memory for all of time. Because I don't consider switching moves to fit type match-ups actual strategizing cuz that's...baby level knowledge. Strategizing, for me, is wondering if I should keep Fire Spin or let my mon replace it with a more powerful move, knowing I will probably never see Fire Spin again.

And, yes, I recall Move Relearners became a thing in, like. Gen 3. But they weren't. In your asshole, available at all times.

I don't know. Old man yells at cloud.
