wattpad support is so useless - "your story was removed due to banned content" 
          	
          	okay, WHAT BANNED CONTENT? the story was literally clean, and if i were actually able to make my case about it i'm sure i might have a chance at getting it back, but you can't even submit an appeal with an explanation. it would only go through if you sent it through the chat bot, who doesn't prompt for a defense of your removed story. so stupid. i'm so pissed and so sad.
          	
          	rip the jeremy gilbert diaries. wrote that a long time ago but it meant a lot to me. it got me my following, a community, friends. that silly fic is truly a part of me, played such a big role in my younger teen years.
          	
          	thank you to everyone who was around back then, and thank you everyone who's read it since. you guys are awesome.

@Holly_Volturi yess there's soo many ads now, and they removed and shadow banned so many works around march/april/may 2024 that people on reddit were calling it the purge and posting advice on how to survive it

Hi everyone,
          
          I logged on today to see a message from Wattpad telling me they've removed The Jeremy Gilbert Diaries from the site due to a breach of policy/guidelines. I don't know which guideline exactly, but I will try to appeal it. Hopefully they'll be willing to restore it.
          
          I didn't have this story backed up anywhere else, and when Wattpad removes a story, it's gone from even your drafts. There was years poured into typing and editing all that from my original handwritten notebooks. 
          
          I'm so sorry about this to all my lovely, ride or die readers who've always supported that crazy story. It's been years since I've updated it or even watched TVD, but that fic is a part of me. It meant a lot to me, and I know it meant a lot to some of you, too.
          
          I'll be backing up all my works here onto my Google Drive now. Lesson learned. If you're interested in some my newer writing, I post on AO3 every now and then- it's better for writing, over there.
          
          Much love,
          Chantivera

Hey I saw the message about publishing on AO3 but sadly when I click on the notif it only takes me to the chapter and not the comment and I couldn't find it. That's great!

@Holly_Volturi that's strange, but yay! i'll probably post an actual update when i post it so that should work better and so everyone can know<3
