#the bot issue

[simder-talia-blog]

Spent my early morning going through my blocked list on my main account, making sure I didn't have actual sims blogs with no icon/etc in there by mistake. This bot problem on here drives me crazy.

If anybody ever gets blocked by mistake, or if I missed your blog in my run-through, please message me somewhere and let me know so I can fix it. & you don't have to wonder if you did something wrong, I hardly ever block anyone besides the handful of hate speech or harrassment, mainly it's just the bots <3

And just a reminder, if you're a new Tumblr user, or don't use it that often, it's still a good idea to personalize your page.

‼️ If I have blocked you due to your blog theme not being personalized at all, but you’re not a bot and you’d like me to unblock you, you can contact me on IG or Ko-fi and let me know. I don’t want to block people who are just CC shopping, but it’s just hard to tell you apart sometimes. (I do not mind at all to get messages about this!)

For ppl who are trying their best to block bot accounts that follow them, just fyi that if the blank account says "İsimsiz" in the bio, that is Turkish for anon. Not something to do with Sims. Those are blank accounts.

Also, some of the pr0nbots have the word "sim" in their handle, usually accompanied by other words that make no sense. It has nothing to do with Sims, they are bot accounts.

When this all started we were informed that these accounts follow you/like your posts or whatever, but they sit there waiting for you to deactivate, or for your account to be unrightfully terminated, then they snatch up your url in order to hijack your organically created traffic. Sometimes it's really hard to tell a personal account from a bot so I just wanted to pass this along.

If you are on Tumblr for CC and you haven’t personalized your page yet, grab a free user icon

(i made these meself with ts4 icons) otherwise your blank or blank-ish blog ends up looking like a bot page. Remember to edit your description as well! & “just here for the sims” is perfectly fine!
