Our TikTok Status - We Need YOU!
Hey all!
As you may have recently noticed, our TikTok @blatepapes was permanently banned in November. Because of the holidays, we hadn’t taken contacting TikTok as seriously as we are now. We are rigorously submitting reports to have TikTok reverse this ban, but so far all we’ve received are generic copy and pasted responses.
CONTEXT:
Their reasoning, as they put it, is due to a violation of their “Regulated Goods and Commercial Activities Policy.” However, as we’ve explained consistently, our products do not apply to their rules, and that we follow all laws in place in regard to our products and commercial activities. Additionally, had we been told, we would have immediately changed any such content or behavior.
The ban took place suddenly with no warning, strikes, or violations at all. We were given no opportunity to address or fix the issue that they felt we violated. If one was to speculate… you might even say that it seems odd given the large following and the messages we conveyed about your health and the truth…. but alas, I digress.
Just to reiterate, using their own rules, we did not violate, and ESPECIALLY not in any way to deserve a permanent ban.
To Our Community:
It’s starting to seem as if the only way we’ll be able to recover our account is if our community helps.
For this reason, we’re humbly asking you to:
Submit a report to TikTok requesting @blatepapes be unbanned. You can also do this in the TikTok app through help. It’s better to use your app, so it shows it comes from real users.
Tweet, comment, post to or message or email TikTok on any platform you use and are willing to do so on.
Links to TikTok Social Accounts:
X: https://twitter.com/TikTokSupport (supposedly the most effective for getting help)
X: https://twitter.com/TikTok (regular TikTok account on Twitter)
Easy copy & paste-able sentences you can use to submit a report, comment, post, messages, or emails:
Dear TikTok Support,
I'd really appreciate if you'd re-examine the violation/permanent ban against "@blatepapes". It would mean a lot to be able to follow them on TikTok again instead of having to use Instagram or YouTube.
Thanks so much.
OR
Dear TikTok,
Would you please consider unbanning '@blatepapes? I was surprised and hurt when I learned they'd been banned because their content has only ever been super informative and a positive addition to our community.
Thank you so much and I really hope you reconsider.
Thank you!

We'd be SUPER grateful to any of you who did this for us
If you followed us on TikTok, or do follow us currently on other platforms, you know that the main goal of our content is to wake you up from an unhealthy lifestyle. Since the ban, we have slowed down tremendously on the video content we were producing… but once again that is changing, regardless of TikTok’s final say.
If we’re unable to revive our TikTok account as it was, we will create a new one. Moving forward, we will be creating more helpful long-form content as well as our typical shorts! Follow our YouTube channel and Instagram for the latest life-changing content!
Thank you for being awesome!
