Y'all know me. Can't speak with confidence about the current situation but BITD the Mods sure AF knew me.
After a minor edit, removing a pic that some found offensive, after 20+ years here, my revised profile has been pending approval for over a year now. Its total BS. Can't email or message any old friends, basically not been voted off the island but most def put in solitary with zero communication. I've started forum threads emailed every one I could think of, groveled (You have no idea how hard that was to do or what it cost inside) to the powers that he, all to no avail. The folk that currently "run" this site are some serious greedy one way street mofo's.

I'd much rather they'd left the site dead of a mercy killing than this half assed shit that's the net equivalent of blue balls. Fuck, they are shitting all over decade plus of good memories and thus sadist, for one, resents the fuck outta that.
Do it right or don't do it at all
On a BDSM where interactions are oft based on accountability this shouldn't be tough to fathom.

I have been following all of this for years. None of us know why some of our profiles are still here and the other half are not. It was definitely not because TOS breaks. I have no doubt a handful of profiles broke those but not the rest.

One thing I read on another site is there might actually be a glitch. In that if you update your profile it goes to a computer purgatory that no one can see, not even the mods. And the site itself might not actually be aware of that glitch.

I think that theory makes sense, surprised I never thought of that myself. They probably have a program system glitch they are not aware off.

Don't use a VPN, someone else wrote but he had no idea if that would make a difference. The ones of you awaiting approval are you using a VPN or not?

The most common recommendation I see is Create another Profile. I don't think collar records IPs or email addresses, not that that should impact all these problems I read about on here, but use another email address if possible but to reiterate I don't think it has anything to do with that.

I now think the site has glitches when it comes to profile creation and updating, and they are totally unaware.

When I first started reading these problems I actually updated my profile to see what happened.

blnymph did you do that too? presume like me yours got approved, with mine I just changed one single word in it to see what happened. I have asked her and a few others on here if they know what is going on but no one knows.

I didn't have a stop watch on mine but it was approved sometime less than 3 days.

I do know the mod team is small on here but I now actually believe they don't see these profiles and therefore don't have a clue what many of you are on about.

For the foreseeable if you have an approved profile do not update it, don't even add a full stop to it.

I don't want to get complicated but another thing I thought about collar might actually record join IPs, and or emails, and somehow half of them get shit canned by some system glitch to where no one sees them ever again.

One question I will ask if you updated your profile how long did it take for approval? Are we talking months, 1 year, 2 years, longer?

I don't know how collar works but I think if your profile goes to Pending no one can see it, but you can still post on the Forums.

Thank you for that input.

Most of the profiles I have read on here over the years have never broken abuse/TOS violations.

My issue is the in "account has shown previous acts of abuse/TOS violations, including those under a different username." Part. Firstly if your profile wasn't an issue when you joined but then became one due to tos changes it makes it sound as though you will never be approved so why doesn't the site just ban

Most strange system message, not sure what a profile update message shows these days. I see 2 conclusion's from that.

I know my IP is static, I am with Virgin media in UK. But I also know some IPs are not static. I just cant see people getting shit canned because of there IP.

I can actually still see profiles here, from the past and distant past, that are not real profiles and those ones shouldn't be here, then or now. I used to swear at those ones from time to time on a slow eve. And that is before I put them through a lie detector test. I never judged the ones that were married and their partners where unaware of what ever website they were all on.

I do not think it is that. Here is more logic. If your profile gets flagged by wtaever collars number is 3-10, even by all scammers and liars you might get shit canned into some naughty corner never to see the light of day. I have no idea how collar works but places like Tinder use those sort of metrics - flagged numbers - and removal is auto, and that is if like 10 scammers report you or 3 people do not like your face, or you knocked them back, or some married bitch trying it on with 100 odd users. I just don't think it is this.

If it is, then the only possible reason is that collar record's your IP and join email address. This makes close to no sense I joined here some 20 years ago and I don't have a clue what email address I had back then but I sure the fuck don't know it now. From within my profile I have no idea if I can update that detail. To compound matters further some sites ask you for your old email address.

I am currently of the opinion that there are several site glitches and the site and mod isnt aware. It may be the collar records emails, or IPs, and they arnt full aware that many get shit canned to places not even the devil sees.

Now and then I pop into the chatroom and ask pretty much all these questions I see here and on other sites regarding the status. I also ask on these forums to the people I know on here.

My issue is the in "account has shown previous acts of abuse/TOS violations Even if that was true, which I suspect it isn't with most users. That doesn't make any sense either which I explained Another way I can explain this sort of stuff is if I mail a legit women on another site and she doesn't reply to me I can report her profile. And if 10 other people, even scammers and liars, did the same her profile will be auto deleted. I read a few profiles on pof saying that my old profile vanished. They have no idea. 12 angry men most likely reported them

If I knew who the mods were I would ask these questions too.

All my time on Collar I have never seen a bot scam problem. I have certainly read a lot of iffy profiles. The ones I notice is if they try and attempt to link to else.

I know a few of us on here have made the offer for free to read and approve profile by Collars current metric.

I am currently favouring a few site glitches is the source of most of these problems.

Yes, several times At first when it was pulled the first time, five years ago. Then again afterwards maybe 3 times or more when searching what in whatever logic might have been against TOS, then again when the header changed to approval denied, now back on awaiting approval for maybe 6 months, still pending.
Lucky you you got approved, congrats, mine didnt yet ever, still the hollow shell for 5+ years since, hidden, no new messages in and out, nothing new, except collarchat requires an extra login after the latest renewal period to access. Haha very funny.

If I take the previous explanations seriously, deleting old for new is not an option but then the old profiles seem to be stored in some backup limbo and once a mistake, can't be corrected but means being kept on hold or denial forever for previous and new, not to mention the loss of old messages and whatever more?

OK so I set up a new profile. My narrative mentioned looking to connect with friends after I lost access to a profile with a similar name and hoping to meet someone. Rejected on TOS grounds. If I'm banned from having a profile then tell me.

I wonder, I wonder, could it have happened during my barley tasting expedition years on the big isle, roaming the territories north of the Umberland or the later return visits of the kilted folk lately when we discussed what this nasty mountain folks and folkses here can do with barley and oats... my memory may be a bit blurred in hindsight though I can clearly remember a sweet honey bee with red curls that did not at all look like you but had a nice single malt flavour.

To my cat ridden hovel? You had more sense. Have you ever been over here? I have never been to Germany, or Bavaria - what ever that is. I am easily confused, and that is before people start using words like "Canton" and "Federal" on me. What is going on over your way these days. I see the AfD are doing well yet even today I was reading a mere moment ago AfD classified as extreme-right by German intelligence that shit is happening here too, more so in England. End well? Probably not.
