Ooops I Did It Again
UPDATE 14th June;! The account got re-activated this morning!
I think I am in the position now to write a book about how many times I have been suspended by Pinterest without doing anything😂🤣
This is the "beauty" social media engagement. You never know when the platforms decide to suspend you "just for the fun" of it.
That was my rant for today🤓
Today I was suspended by Pinterest while looking at some pins on my Pinterest account for my niche website for Coffe, Beer and Gadgets. After about 2 minutes I was kicked out of Pinterest., with the message that I was suspended due to a violation of Pinterest's spam policy.
This is the 5th time within one year that this happens on this account alone.
Back to the appeal procedure once again to get the suspension lifted and wait in patience for the result.
I expect that I will have to appeal at least one additional time to get it lifted.

That would be so frustrating for you Roy, nothing worse than investing energy to have it thrown back in our faces. If the returns on that investment are not paying dividends; perhaps time to invest elsewhere, for a while.
Then again pushing the boundaries can be fun and add some spice to the online wild ride, that we all experience from time to time. Keep banging on the Pinterest door they will get sick of it and leave you be.😎😎😎😎.
Thank you, Sandra. Your words are encouraging and motivating😊.
I fully agree with you. If it happens again and again, the energy is better put elsewhere.

Hi Roy,
it seems like you are becoming the king of suspension. I do hope that your suspension is lifted soon so you can get back to doing what you need to do! Just hang in there; this too shall pass!
Have a great day! Wishing you the very best!
Kind regards,
Nichola

You reminds me my mother, like you did, not taking NO for an answer but wait patiently, you do what you have to do in able to get it! 👍
She was denied 5x a Visa to come and visits me for I got car accident big time, back 2002.
Happy Sunday indeed

You´re welcome, Jocelyn 😄 I love the story about your mother. A great example of being patient and not giving up👍🏼

I'm very sorry to hear that, Roy! It certainly keeps me outside of Pinterest since I have better things to do other than having to constantly look over my shoulder. It is the main reason that I also detest Fakebook and their "thought police"!

Thank you, Jeff. I understand what you are saying. But I am not worried about Facebook or any of the social platforms. In my opinion noen of them are better than the other. I select instead to utlize them as a tool for my message about how to earn some money via the Interent😊
I just don't need the aggravation, Roy! There are way too many other ways to make money!

Roy this is like groundhog day,
Feeling your pain.(again)......Can you imagine if you were one of these huge influencers and then with the click of a button your online income ceases?
I have seen this happen, in fact here you are telling us exactly that.
I was watching a Youtuber who had nearly a million followers and one day, for no apparent reason, he found he was unable to load any new content.
This situation went on for many weeks, luckily he had Patreon subscribers and his subs appealed on his behalf, he had apologies from Youtube with promises of reparing the damageASAP; never the less it still took a further 8 weeks and that cost him thousands and thousands of dollars of lost revenue.
It is always a concern that you can invest huge amounts of energy and time only to have the platform take the rug from under your feet.
Good luck with it all and hopefully Pinterest will come to their senses... :(
I am back in business, Cordelia :-) It is sad that these things happen. I you remember fromlast year I had quite a bit of traction from Pinterest to my websit bout dogs, when Pinterest decided to suspend the account and then close it down for good.
I lost a bit of traffic for some time, but then I started to get traffic from Facebook to the website instead.
