Alright, i notice a lot of you have the Generic Tumblr Icons and- in case you dont know- Tumblr has a bad case of Bots so every once in awhile, creators and other blog owners will do a purge.
What do we do in the purge?
We block any and all Bots
It used to be easy but now- not so much
Let me show you a common Bot
Nothing on their page, with a standard icon.
Now, a year or two ago, i know this is a bot and i can block em, done deal!
But now-
I see Ikarus, i think they are a bot
Its the same right down to their posts. No reblogs, but it differs on the likes and follows
But this? This is not good.
Not only are you not supporting your content creators by reblogging their items, but it makes it so hard for those creators not to block you.
And shabang- you end up with a creator blocking you with no idea why.
If you have a standard icon, please reblog from your favorite creators- we're on tumblr, no one cares about the weird shit you like or reblog, and if they do- the block button is there :)
But the first thing to do to get off the block list, is to change your icon. And i'll show you how on Mobile.
Take note, i am an android user, but the process is similar for Apple
Head to your blog, and at the top right corner, you will see a little pallette. This is the universal edit me for your blogs where you can change color and font
Now you can see what i can edit and what's available, my icon and banner, my background and accent, but for now, lets focus on that icon!
This box will appear, you can choose to not show your avatar/Icon, and the shape of a Square or Circle, that's up to you, but for now Choose a photo and use any of which you like! You can zoom in on a photo to get a single character or not, that's up to you.
Tumblr offers many icon sets if you'd like, my suggestion is to not use an IRL photo.
1. Cause its the internet
And 2. You'll still maybe be banned cause a lot of Porn Bots and 'Sugar Daddy Bots' use IRL photos. Like below
Just keep it in mind, and have a fun time changing your icon to suit you!
I must not mock Gen Alpha. Mocking Gen Alpha is the mind killer. Mocking Gen Alpha is the little-death that brings total generational solidarity obliteration. I will engage with Gen Alpha lovingly. I will permit them to be cringe. And when they grow up I will turn my eye to their accomplishments. Where mocking has gone there will be nothing. Only generational solidarity remains
adrien: if i so much as touch marinette with one inch of my body i will surely lose every one of my scooter ride privileges and never again be considered a gentleman look she's already so nervous it must be scary driving i must sit as properly as possible it's fine it's not so bad my arms are almost long enough to hang onto the sides of my seat like this
marinette: if we hit one bump in the road i'm going to faceplant into the basket and adrien is going to fly into the sun seriously he isn't even holding onto anything why isn't he holding onto anything does he have that much faith in my driving or does he not want to hold onto me oh god was that a bump in the road just now i'm focusing i'm focusing i'm focusi
