I hope everyone had a great day! You guys rock!

      1. They’re the ones who run the tech side of WordPress. Do you know how to get in touch with them. If not, I think I have their email address.

  6. Some of the issue may come from the counts you have, either from more than a particular count of posts for a day, or the same with the number of links. You’ve done five for the last 24 hours that I’ve seen – is that correct? If so, maybe put two or more of the posts together so you only post a couple of times a day, rather than five or more. That may be what the ‘spam controller’ is picking up on. Always best to check with them, though – I’m nobody’s expert.

    1. I didn’t know you couldn’t post more than a certain amount of times! I have been catching up on reviews and some of it’s because of blig tours and publicity that’s been saved and scheduled! Drats! Thanks for letting me know I will investigate the issue. But I see some people who post like 10 a day!😭 Thanks so much for the advice!

  7. Dani, just mail WordPress. It is in their support category.
    Also put it up on twitter about this. So it gets their attention fast

      1. I’ve never actually heard of problems with follows. Now getting “like” banned or commenting yes, happens all the time and the more followers you have I’m sure the more often you’d have to wait those out but following? Weird.

  13. I have issues with WP at least three times a year. All it takes is for someone to reject a pingback, or mistakenly spam a comment, and I am exiled automatically. It takes a while to get back on track, as those comments are gradually freed from Spam, or WP decides I am OK after all.
    At least you are still able to comment on other blogs, and the rest might sort itself out soon.
    Best wishes, Pete. x

        1. You missed the big rant! There was a post that showed what they said to me and I told them I would take it down if they fixed it because I started having followers messaging them. They said if my spam behavior continued they were going to permanently block my ability to follow people and I did nothing wrong. It was crazy!

  18. How many are you following? Someone else had the same problem because WP told her she hit the 4000 follower limit and she will not be able to follow anyone else at all.

    1. I am only following 800 and I have 600 something followers. But they told me the issue was book giveaways, blitzes, cover reveals and reviews are not allowed supposedly its insane girl! I fought with them for hours. I have another blogger friend who got suspended yesterday and I read a post online when I googled it from a book blogger named Tammy that it said they also made her self host because of it and its supposedly in the guidelines! It was nuts!!
