So um...my Tumblr was just terminated

[morgandawn]

 I had posted about looking for tumblr adult hosting alternatives and as I soon as I hit send, I lost it all.

I just sent in a request to be restored.

I had not had time to make a backup of my full  blog (messages, drafts etc) so I lost a day, plus all the messages etc. The sideblogs were backed up.

edited: temporally back, trying to use their export tool asap just in case.

edited: their export tool backup failed, so I used python to make a second backup 

UPDATE: Well...that was special

I'm sorry to hear that. What a debacle.

Ah, so still a debacle, I see.

Wow. I guess that the 17th wasn't a hard deadline after all. (Or else it's another mistake/bug, which is... not better...

[morgandawn]

Totally not a bug. I'm working on a longer post about this but the short version is I asked for feedback on a specific adult web hosting site and that was enough to get me shit canned.

If nobody's told you yet--or not enough people have told you, you have been an invaluable source of information on Tumblr, as well as LJ and DW. I see a post from you on any of the sites I visit and I know it's valuable and the latest available info on things fandom related. In this Tumblr purge mess, you've been a clear head and a source of direction for everybody, and I can't say enough how much you're appreciated. Thank you for your determination and all your effort.

WOW. That's awful.

Actually: Do you mind if I post a link to this on Tumblr?

[morgandawn]

Not yet. I am trying to get an export done on my blog. If I post again about tumblr alternatives before I could lose it all again.

[jamethiel]

Yes! More than fair enough. That's why I asked.

(It's so, so shit that this has happened. You're doing your best to obey their rules!)

the tumblr backup failed, so I used python to backup and just made my post

Ah, I see /o\ And I saw the name of the site below. Urg, I hope everyone manages to do backups in time before Dec 17 hits :/

[nenya_kanadka]

Holy shit.

WTF, Tumblr. That's...creepy of them.

[morgandawn]

The site I mentioned may actually be a bad site. I found them on many of the Top 10 adult web hosts so how was I to know. Since we're on Dreamwidth I can mention them AdultHost.com But for fucks sake, I just wanted some feedback about the site.
