HELLO,

WHAT SHOULD I DO WHEN I GET MY SNAPCHAT ACCOUNT BLOCKED?

TODAY ALL OF A SUDDEN, WITHOUT ANY WARNING OR ANYTHING, THEY DESCIDED TO BLOCK MY SNAPCHAT ACCOUNT. I TRIED REQUESTING THE UNBLOCK VIA THE SNAPCHAT WEB SITE, BUT, WHEN I DO, IT DOES NOT LET ME. IT SAYS AGAIN THAT IT HAS BEEN BLOCKED. 🙁

THEY DID NOT OFFER ME ANY EXPLANATION OF WHY THEY ARE BLOCKING ME. THEY DID NOT TELL ME, THIS IS WRONG OR THAT IS WRONG. THEY DID NOT WARM ME THAT I MAY GET BLOCKED BECAUSE I AM DOING THIS OR THAT. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND.

SURE I CAN JUST CREATE A NEW ACCOUNT, BUT, IF I DO THAT, IT WILL PROBABLY END THE SAME WAY SINCE THEY DID NOT TELL ME WHAT I DID WRONG.

SO, CAN I SOMEHOW FIND OUT WHAT WAS WRONG, EXACTLY?

AND SECOND QUESTION, CAN I SOMEHOW REGAIN ACCESS TO MY ACCOUNT? IF NOT TO FULL ACCOUNT, CAN I AT LEAST DOWNLOAD DATA FROM THAT ACCOUNT?

THE PROBLEM IS THAT I HAVE ABOUT 25 000 SNAPS RECEIVED ON THAT ACCOUNT WHICH I DID NOT SEE AND DOWNLOAD, AND THOSE ARE VERY IMPORTANT SNAPS. I WOULD REALLY LIKE NOT TO LOOSE THEM.

AND SECOND THING WHICH I WOULD LIKE TO DOWNLOAD IS MY FRIEND LIST SO THAT I CAN READD THOSE PEOPLE FROM NEW ACCOUNT.

BECAUSE, THIS IS STUPID. IF ONLY THEY HAVE WARMED ME AT LEAST A DAY IN ADVANCE THAT THEY ARE GOING TO BLOCK ME, I WOULD USE THAT TIME TO TRY TO DOWNLOAD AS MUCH OF THOSE 25000 SNAPS AS I CAN. SINCE I WAS GETTING HUGE AMOUNTS OF SNAPS EVERY DAY, I WAS NOT ABLE TO LOOK THROUGH ALL OF THEM RIGHT AWAY, SO I HAVE SNAPS AS OLD AS 3 MONTHS WHICH ARE STIL PENDING TO BE DOWNLOADED. I JUST SAVED THEM IN CHAT SO THAT SNAPCHAT DOES NOT DELETE THEM, BECAUSE THEY LOVE TO DELETE SNAPS THE MOST, IF YOU DO NOT LOOK AT THEM IN SHORT TIME.

TO BE CLEAR, SNAPCHAT IS DEFINITELY THE WORST SOCIAL NETWORK ON THE WORLD, I HATE IT, BUT, NEVERTHELESS, I WOULD STIL WANT TO USE IT.

AND 25K SNAPS IS NO SMALL AMOUNT TO LOOSE. I ALREADY DOWNLOADED ABOUT 300K SNAPS OVER THE LAST 8 YEARS ON MY COMPUTER, AND THIS IS ALMOST 10% OF THAT NUMBER. A LOT STUFF TO LOOSE, YOU KNOW.

SECOND PART OF THE QUESTION

In reply to Snapchat advice

I WAS ALWAYS PLANNING TO EMPLOY SOME AUTOMATIC SNAPCHAT DOWNLOADER APPLICATION, BUT I NEVER DID, I ALLWAYS THOUGH THAT I CAN MANAGE MANUAL DOWNLOAD OF SNAPS, ALTHOUGH IN THE PAST 14 MONTHS I SPENT ABOUT 6 HOURS PER DAY IN AVERAGE DOING NOTHING BUT DOWNLOADING SNAPS, AND I WAS STIL 3 MONTHS BEHIND. I AM NOW SORRY THAT I DID NOT INSTALL ONE OF THOSE AUTO DOWNLOADING APPS, BUT, I DID NOT SINCE THAT IS RISKY TO USE. IF SNAPCHAT DETECTS ONE OF SUCH APPS, IT SAYS THAT IT MAY BLOCK YOU BECAUSE OF THAT. NOT TO MENTION THAT MANY OF SUCH APPS REQUIRE YOU TO GIVE THEM ACCESS TO ROOT USER ACCOUNT ON YOUR PHONE (IF YOU ARE USING ANDROID), TO INSTALL SOME SHADY FRAMEWORKS OR THEY INJECT CUSTOM CODE INTO SNAPCHAT APP WHICH IS ALSO RISKY FROM MANY POINTS OF VIEW. ALSO, THEY ARE RISKY BECAUSE THEY ARE A BIG RISK OF CONTAINING VIRUSES OR SPYWARE. I AM NOT THAT MUCH CONCERNED ABOUT SPYWARE, BUT VIRUSES ARE NOT SOMETHING WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO DOWNLOAD TO MY PHONE. SINCE, YOU CAN NOT JUST DOWNLOAD THOSE APPS FROM OFFICIAL STORES, THEY ARE OFTEN TO BE DOWNLOADED FROM SOME SHADY AND HIGH-RISK WEB SITES AND YOU CAN NOT REALLY BE SURE WHAT THOSE APPS DO ON YOUR PHONE IN BACKGROUND. AND YES, OF COURSE, THOSE APPS USUALLY ASK YOU FOR YOUR PASSWORD, WHAT IS NOT THE BEST THING. ALTHOUGH I DO NOT HAVE A PROBLEM WITH GIVING MY PASSWORD TO THIRD PARTY APPS, I AM MOSTLY CONCERNED ABOUT THOSE APPS INSTALLING VIRUSES IN BACKGROUND. I AM ALREADY USING A FEW OF THOSE “HACKING” APPS FOR OTHER SOCIAL NETWORKS, MOSTLY INSTAGRAM. FOR EXAMPLE, FOR INSTAGRAM I INSTALLED ONE OF THOSE AUTO DOWNLOADING APPS, AND I DID IT MANY YEARS AGO, AND I DID NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH IT. IT WORKS JUST FINE, IT DOWNLOADS EVERYTHING WHAT I WANT, AUTOMATICALLY. YES, I DID GIVE MY PASSWORD TO THAT APP, AND, SURE, WHO KNOWS WHO HAS MY INSTAGRAM PASSWORD NOW, BUT THAT IS NOT TOO BIG OF A CONCERN OF MINE. WHOEVER HAS IT, IT DID NOT TOUCH MY ACCOUNT, IT DID NOT DO ANY POSTING, SPAMMING NOR ANYTHING LIKE IT, SO I AM FINE WITH THAT. THIS APPLICATION ALSO HAS ACCESS TO ROOT USER ON MY PHONE AND IT DID NOT DO ANY HARM, AS FAR AS I KNOW, TO MY PHONE IN ALL THOSE YEARS. I ALSO HAVE ONE OTHER APP WHICH INJECTS SOME CODE TO INSTAGRAM APP AND THIS APP DID NOT DO ANY HARM TO MY PHONE NOR INSTAGRAM ACCOUNT EITHER.

THIRD PART OF THE QUESTION

In reply to Snapchat advice

AND CHANCES ARE, IF I INSTALLED THIS AUTO DOWNLOADING APP FOR SNAPCHAT TOO, I WOULD NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH IT TOO. I AM REALLY NOT SURE WHY DID I POSTPONE INSTALLATION OF THIS SNAPCHAT AUTO DOWNLOADING APP TO MY PHONE, ESPECIALLY WHEN I WAS RECEIVING THOSE HUGE AMOUNTS OF SNAPS EVERY DAY, BUT I DID, AND NOW I AM VERY SORRY FOR THAT. I WOULD LOVE THAT I DID NOT, I WOULD NOW HAVE ALL MY SNAPS ON MY COMPUTER. 🙁

I AM DEFINITELY PLANNING TO CREATE A NEW SNAPCHAT ACCOUNT AND FIRST THING I AM GOING TO DO IS TO SET UP ONE OF THOSE AUTO DOWNLOADING APPS. THAT IS A SOLUTION FOR A NEW ACCOUNT. BUT FOR THIS ONE, AND THOSE 25000 UNDOWNLOADED SNAPS, WHAT SHOULD I DO?

THIS COULD ALL BE SO MUCH EASYER IF ONLY SNAPCHAT OFFERED THE OPTION TO DOWNLOAD ALL MY SNAPS AT ONCE, AND THEN THERE WOULD NOT BE ANY REASON TO INSTALL THOSE SUSPICIOUS APPS ON MY PHONE.

I MEAN, WHY WOULD THEY BLOCK ME WITHOUT TELLING ME WHAT I DID WRONG? DO NOT THEY UNDERSTAND THAT IF YOU WANT SOMEONE TO STOP DOING SOMETHING WHAT YOU DO NOT LIKE, THAT YOU HAVE TO TELL THEM, OR ELSE, IF YOU DO NOT, HOW CAN YOU EXPECT THEM TO KNOW WHAT YOU DO NOT LIKE AND TO STOP DOING THAT? THIS IS RIDICULOUS.

I HAVE MANY BAD EXPERIENCES WITH SO MANY SOCIAL NETWORKS. WHEREVER I CREATE SOME ACCOUNT, I GET BLOCK, EVENTUALLY. FACEBOOK, INSTAGRAM, SNAPCHAT, YOUTUBE… YOU NAME IT. IF THERE IS ANY SOCIAL NETWORK YOU CAN THINK OF, I GOT BLOCKED AT LEAST ONCE. EVEN ON REGULAR FORUMS, LIKE THIS ONE, I GET BLOCKED. EVEN MICROSOFT BLOCKED SOME ACCOUNT OF MINE ON THEIR SERVICES. I WILL PROBABLY GET BLOCKED ON THIS FORUM EVENTUALLY. AND THAT IS SO RIDICULOUS. USUALLY, WHEN I GET BLOCKED IT IS WITHOUT ANY REASON PROVIDED. JUST ONE DAY I LOG IN AND ACCOUNT DOES NOT WORK ANYMORE.

FOR GODS SAKE, I EVEN ONCE GET BLOCKED ON A SITE WHICH IS KNOWN TO HAVE CRIMINAL ACTIVITY, AND WHICH HAS USERS AND ADMINISTRATORS WHICH ARE VERY LOW ON RULES ENFORCEMENT. I EVEN GOT BLOCKED ONCE ON SUCH PAGE. I MEAN, WHAT THE HECK?

FOURTH PART OF THE QUESTION

In reply to Snapchat advice

THIS HAS REALLY BECOME RIDICULOUS BY NOW. I CAN NOT EVEN COUNT HOW MANY OF MY ACCOUNTS HAVE BEEN BLOCKED ON MANY MANY MANY PLACES ON THE INTERNET. TENS AND TENS OF ACCOUNTS. PROBABLY MORE THAN 50 BY NOW. I HAVE 17 ACOUNTS ON INSTAGRAM ALONE. JUST BECAUSE THEY BLOCKED 8 OF THOSE ALREADY. SO I ONCE CREATED 10 ACCOUNTS IN A ROW, SO THAT I HAVE IN BACKUP WHEN ONE IS BLOCKED THAT I CAN SWITCH. I USE 1 ACCOUNT, THE OTHER 11 ARE IN STAND BY, JUST FOR THE CASE WHEN I GET BLOCKED SO THAT I HAVE SOME READY TO SWITCH, BECAUSE, USUALLY, WHEN I GET BLOCKED, I AM NOT ALLOWED TO CREATE A NEW ACCOUNT FOR SEVERAL WEEKS, SO I NEED TO HAVE AN ACCOUNT IN STAND BY SO THAT I DO NOT HAVE TO WAIT.

THE BEST EXPERIENCE I HAD IS WITH FACEBOOK, AND FACEBOOK IS MY FAVORITE SOCIAL NETWORK. THEY NEVER BLOCKED MY ACCOUNT COMPLETELY, YET. I HAVE GOT BLOCKED MANY TIMES ON FACEBOOK, BUT EVERY TIME THEY WROTE ME A MESSAGE, SOMETHING LIKE: YOU HAVE BEEN BLOCKED FROM POSTING COMMENTS FOR THE NEXT 14 DAYS BECAUSE YOU VIOLATED THE RULE THIS AND THIS, YOU DID THAT AND THAT WHICH IS AGAINST OUR COMUNITY GUIDELINES, OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. USUALLY, THEY EVEN HIGHLIGHT THE EXACT COMMENT OR POST OR MESSAGE WHICH I WROTE WHICH IS INAPPROPRIATE AND WHY IS IT INAPPROPRIATE. SO I LIKE THAT. I KNOW THAT I SHOULD TRY TO FORM MY WORDS A LITTLE DIFFERENT THE NEXT TIME. SO, I HAVE NEVER BEEN PERMANENTLY BLOCKED ON FACEBOOK IN THE LAST 15 YEARS, EVER SINCE I CREATED ACCOUNT. I HAD BEEN TEMPORARLY BLOCKED MANY TIMES, BUT EVERY TIME WITH EXPLAINATION. SO, THAT IS WHAT I LIKE.

NEVERTHELESS, I HAVE 31 ACCOUNT ON FACEBOOK, BUT, ONLY A FEW OF THOSE ARE TRULLY MINE. OTHER ACOCUNTS ARE FROM OTHER PEOPLE WHOSE PASSWORD I KNOW, OR WHOSE ACCOUNTS I ADMINISTER.

I NEVER HAD THE NEED TO CREATE A NEW ACCOUNT ON FACEBOOK, SO, THAT IS WHY I LOVE THIS NETWORK.

AND UNTIL NOW, I NEVER HAD PROBLEMS WITH SNAPCHAT. I WAS PROUD THAT I MANAGED TO GET TO 8 YEARS OF USING A SNAPCHAT WITHOUT GETTING BLOCKED. AND NOW THEY DO THIS, WITHOUT ANY WARNING OR EXPLANATION. I HATE THAT SOCIAL NETWORK.

I REALLY DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY EVERYONE KEEPS BLOCKING ME. JUST BECAUSE MY WRITING STYLE IS A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT THAN OF OTHER PEOPLE, JUST BECAUSE MY VIEWPOINTS OF THE WORLD ARE NOT THE SAME AS VIEWPOINTS OF MOST PEOPLE, JUST BECAUSE I HAVE DIFFERENT OPPINIONS ABOUT STUFF, MOSTLY BECAUSE I ADVOCATE FOR SEXUAL FREEDOM.

THIS IS SO STUPID.

FIFTH PART OF THE QUESTION

In reply to Snapchat advice

IN ANY CASE, BACK TO THE TOPIC, THOSE 25K SNAPS ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO ME, THEY CONTAIN VERY INTERESTING STUFF AND I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO BE ABLE TO DOWNLOAD THEM. I DO NOT HAVE TO REGAIN ACCESS TO MY ACCOUNT, IF ONLY I COULD SOMEHOW JUST DOWNLOAD THOSE SNAPS, THAT WOULD BE AWESOME.

SINCE THOSE SNAPS ARE NOT SOMETHING WHAT YOU COULD JUST FIND ON INTERNET EASYLY. THOSE SNAPS ARE VERY SPECIAL ONES.

SO, HOW CAN I RECOVER THOSE SNAPS?

WHAT SHOULD I DO NEXT?

MY SEXUAL LIFE IS GRATELY NEGATIVELY IMPACTED BY THIS SNAPCHAT BLOCK, SO, PLEASE HELP. MY PENIS WILL THANK YOU IF YOU DO.

You will need to wait until Monday to contact Snapchat about this. There is absolutely nothing anyone else can do to help you if they blocked your account, and they will have to unblock it as well. We don’t know what and why your account was blocked or if it is a temporary technical issue. I wish there was a simple answer.

This entire thread sounds more like an obsession with Snapchat as it is too verbose for an ordinary user.

but typing in ALL CAPS IS CONSIDERED SHOUTING, AND RUDE TO THE NTH DEGREE!
I’m tempted to delete the entire thread as nothing more than a rant, since there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING that anyone OUTSIDE OF SNAPCHAT CAN DO!
Just a tip, when/if you contact Snapchat support, LEARN HOW TO TYPE IN SOMETHING OTHER THAN ALL CAPITAL LETTERS! They might take your request seriously then, compared to DISMISSING IT ENTIRELY. Just a bit of friendly advice from an old timer on the internets and WWW.

ps…perhaps your subject borders on unacceptable, and you finally crossed a line.
pps…nobody really gives a rats behind about your sex life…that’s between you and your hand.
