  I tried to transfer my blog from tumblr which I’ve had for a few years to your site and everytime I do that your automatic process closes down my blog because it decides I’m uploading in bunk! This is really annoying as I am advertising nothing, I simply have a tumblr visual blog that I’ve used for a few years and tried to transfer over to you! is there any reason why you encourage others to import but then decide any import more than maybe 30 blogs turn into violation of your rules according to your automatic process? What is the point of that and how do I get my blog back please?
  Blog url: http://visualarts365.wordpress.com/

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I think you’re projecting a bit. I’ve seen people import thousands of posts without getting shut down. If your blog is suspended, contact WordPress via the link on that suspension page.

  It was an automated process because I also post in chinese characters as well as english and french, so it is flagged as spam much faster.

  I emailed wordpress,they have not responded. So yes,I find this annoying.

  well wordpress, we are not here to sell you stuff…some of us have blogs in chinese & french translating stuff about serous issues like Creative Free Speech in art and dealing with Nobel Peace Laureates jailed for 11 yrs and stuff….hmm..so please get a human being to look at the content every so often. I know you have very streamlined staff for such a large presence on-line, but I am reporting this as a problem.

  Thank you.

  I’m sorry but we Volunteers answering support questions have no role to play in this process. This is between you and Staff.

  You have a warning notice with a link in it — please click that link as it works at all times (even when the regular contact form is closed). There’s also a contact form you can use to reach them at the bottom of this page http://en.support.wordpress.com/suspended-blogs/

  If you have already contacted Staff, the ToS department definitely received your request. Please be patient as they’ll be getting back to you as soon as they can.

  Mistakes can be made but as a policy, we are asked to refrain from discussing ToS issues on the public forums.
