Hi, my dear bats. Today I’m here to bring some sad and controversial news. But it’s really important for me that you read all of it, and share it. =/

Last week, on 5/11, Instagram deleted my account @giu_hellsing, with no warning. No photos were deleted, no Stories either. It was just deleted with nothing that I could do about it. Yep, that’s it, just deleted, not banned or blocked.

I tried to reach Instagram in every possible way but got only an automatic answer saying that ”a deleted account cannot be recovered”.

You guys know more than anyone that I use Instagram to work, not just for my content but for promotions, ads, and my steady job (I’m an employee) that demands that I use the account that I used to have. This means that I just CANNOT work…

I have a business with people that I hire monthly for their services to help me bring the best content for you, photographers, editors, manager, cosmakers…

With my account deleted by Instagram, I had a lot of contracts with brands, partnerships, and companies, and I still need to deliver them content. I still owe them numbers of deliverables, photoshoots, posts, engagement, activations… My account was fully organic. I didn’t pay for sponsored posts, I have never used bots or bought followers… It was years and years that I invested in content, with dedication and money invested in each photo, cosplay, job (that I’ll probably have to compensate for breach of contract).

And what is the point of explaining all of this?

I always thought that this would happen someday.

Cosplayers know that this can happen at any moment, having their accounts taken down for anonymous fak3 reports, by Instagram for content, sales, hashtags, etc… I myself have helped countless girls every month by having their accounts taken down. I’ve spent hours and hours giving every tip on how to get their accounts back, on how to protect themselves, how to prevent this from happening… Countless friends have asked for help concerning this. But my time had come, and when it came I couldn’t put anything into practice. The account was just deleted from the platform.

We are talking about financial and moral damage here.

You may think that it was because of my photos, but there was not any warning of deleted photos for not following the rules, after all there were no nud3 photos, or insinuating nud1ty (or any other way described on the rules). While talking to other people that had their accounts taken down (I was not even warned) we could see that Instagram doesn't allow certain types of sales. But what can we do if a lingerie brand hires us to promote them? Or when your work is literally forwarding the customers to the sales of other products of some brand?

I need to work and just can’t.

And I really do work A LOT. I literally gave up on a job I’ve worked for years to dedicate everything to this.

Now I ask you. Would you stay on a platform that cannot accept who you are and what you do?

I wouldn’t. And I won’t.

I can’t just stop working, and I don’t think it’s fair that I’ll need to create a new account so Instagram can just delete it. I can’t dedicate years and years of my life on a platform that just doesn't want me there, that despises the content that I and so many others produce.

I know that many of you have felt this way before, or have had your accounts taken down and know of this feeling that I’m talking about.

I have just decided that I will not invest my time, my mind (‘cause even I can be shaken psychologically, you know? =/), my effort, and my money on this platform. I just feel powerless.

I thank from the bottom of my heart every friend that was concerned for me, that came after me on other social networks, and even by mail hahaha, you all just found a way. I confess that I didn’t expect so many of you to worry about me, and you all live in my heart.

I also thank every follower that wants me to be well, and that are concerned for my well being. And I’m so sorry if I have disappointed you. But I just can’t stay in a place that doesn't want me. You know me like this, exactly like I am. So please, don’t ask me to do something, or be someone else, just to fit in a place that would make me sad.

But to everyone that wants to keep following me, please, click on the link in my Bio.

You will find every social network that I have there. Follow me, send me messages, be active! ‘Cause I surely will (more active than I have ever been 8D). I promise that I will never leave you. I miss you SO much! And I need you more than ever…

And if you are reading this please share it, help me let more people know about this! I couldn't even let my followers know, it was so sudden that there was nothing that I could do, but I feel like I owe this to all of you. And even though it’s impossible to reach every single one, I at least need to try.

Thank you, and catch you on the flip side!

Giu Hellsing  PS: for you my patrons, nothing changed, besides, I'll post way more here! So you can continue seeing my updates, stories, life, previews! It's not your fault, and you always helped me so much, so I truly will compensate even more!

Olá meus morceguinhos. Hoje eu vim contar uma notícia triste e polêmica. Mas é muito importante que vocês leiam até o final e compartilhem =/

Semana passada dia 11/05, o Instagram deletou minha conta no Instagram @giu_hellsing, sem nenhum aviso prévio. Nenhuma foto foi excluída, nenhum story também. Simplesmente foi deletada, sem que eu pudesse fazer nada. Isso mesmo, foi deletada, não banida ou bloqueada.

Eu tentei contato de todas as formas possíveis, mas só recebi uma resposta automática de que “uma conta excluída, não pode ser recuperada”.

Vocês sabem mais do que ninguém, que eu uso o Instagram para trabalhar, não somente para meu conteúdo, mas para divulgações, publis, e meu emprego fixo (que sou funcionária) que exige aquela conta que eu possuía. Isto é, dessa forma, eu NÃO posso trabalhar...

Eu tenho uma empresa, tenho pessoas que eu contrato mensalmente o serviço para que me ajudem a trabalhar nessa empresa, fotógrafos, editores, manager, cosmakers...

Com a minha conta que foi deletada pelo Instagram, eu possuía inúmeros contratos com marcas, parcerias e empresas, e eu ainda preciso entregar conteúdo para eles. Eu ainda devo números de entregas, ensaios, postagens, engajamento, ações... Minha conta era orgânica. Não pagava anúncios, nunca comprei seguidores, nunca usei bot... Foram anos e anos de conteúdo, dedicação, e dinheiro investido em cada foto, cosplay, trabalho (que agora possivelmente terei que desembolsar em função de quebra de contrato).

Onde eu quero chegar explicando tudo isso?

Eu sempre esperei que isso um dia iria ocorrer.

Cosplayers sabem que a qualquer momento podem ter suas contas derrubadas por denúncias, pelo Instagram, por conteúdo, por vendas, por hashtag, etc. Eu mesma, já ajudei incontáveis meninas todos os meses por terem suas contas derrubadas. Já passei horas e horas dando todas as dicas de como recuperá-las, como se proteger, como prevenir que isso acontecesse. Inúmeras amigas já vieram me pedir socorro quanto a isso. Mas, chegou meu momento. E quando eu poderia pôr tudo isso em prática, eu não pude. Apenas fui excluída da plataforma.

Estamos falando de danos financeiros e morais.

Vocês podem achar que foi pelas fotos, mas não houveram avisos de fotos deletadas por não seguirem as regras, afinal, não haviam fotos nu4s, ou que insinuaram nud3z (ou qualquer outra forma descrita nas regras). Conversando com várias pessoas que tiveram suas contas caídas (eu nem fui sequer avisada), pudemos ver que o Instagram não permite alguns tipos de vendas ou vendas de terceiros. Mas e o que fazemos então quando uma marca de lingerie contrata para divulgação? Ou então quando seu trabalho é literalmente encaminhar para vendas de outro produto de alguma marca?

Eu preciso trabalhar, e não posso.

E eu trabalho muito. Eu literalmente larguei um concurso público para me dedicar a isso.

E aí eu pergunto a vocês, vocês ficariam em uma plataforma que não te aceita?

Eu não.

Eu não posso deixar de trabalhar, ou acho que seja justo eu criar uma nova conta para que novamente o Instagram diga que minha conta foi deletada. Eu não posso dedicar anos e anos para uma plataforma que não me quer, e que despreza o que eu e tantas outras pessoas produzimos.

Sei que muitos e muitas de vocês já se sentiram assim, ou mesmo tiveram suas contas deletadas e sabem do que eu estou falando.

Decidi que não irei investir meu tempo, mente (pois mesmo eu, me abalo psicologicamente sabe =/), trabalho e dinheiro nessa plataforma. Eu só me sinto incapaz.

Eu agradeço de coração a todos os amigos que se preocuparam comigo, que foram atrás de mim em outras redes, outros contatos, até email hahah, deram um jeito. Confesso que eu não esperava tantos, e vocês estão no meu coração.

Agradeço também a todos seguidores que estão querendo meu bem e se preocupam comigo. E sinto muito se acabei desapontando vocês. Mas não posso continuar em um lugar que não me quer. Vocês me conhecem assim, dessa forma. Não me peçam pra fazer algo, e me enquadrar em uma coisa que me deixaria triste.

Então se verem outras contas com meu nome por aí, NÃO sou eu.

Mas a todos que quiserem continuar me acompanhando, por favor, vejam o link na minha Bio, lá terão todas minhas outras redes sociais.

https://allmylinks.com/giuhellsing

Me sigam lá, me mandem mensagens, sejam ativos! Pois eu serei (e como 8D). Prometo não abandoná-los. Sinto a falta de vocês! E preciso de vocês mais do que nunca...

E se vocês estão vendo isso, por favor, compartilhem, me ajudem a deixar mais pessoas saberem! Eu não pude avisar meus seguidores, foi tão de repente que não pude fazer nada, mas sinto que devo uma posição a todos, que mesmo sendo impossível alcançar a todos, preciso pelo menos tentar.

Obrigada e até ali do lado!

Giu Hellsing  PS: A todos que me apoiam aqui, não se preocupem, nada vai mudar! Na realidade, irei postar mais, mais stories, mais previews, mais tudo, afinal será onde posso me comunicar. Obrigada pela carinho!

Magnetron

AJ Matheson

Sorry to here this, kiddo... its unfortunate, but you will find your feet.

Corey Salvatore

That sucks, I'm sorry that happened 😞 Have you thought about creating a free OF account to (somewhat) replace the IG one?

Vic Coyote

I’m at the same very happy to know you are fine and sad for what happened to you. Instagram is such an awful platform with a shitty algorithm so I understand why you don’t want to go back; you have my entire support I know you’re going to come back stronger than ever bat queen 🦇🖤💙

Mauricio Galvão

Eu esperava um retorno triunfante, jamais esperava que isso poderia ter acontecido.

Miceal

I’m so sorry to hear Giu, no one deserves to be treated this way. And You better believe our support isn’t going anywhere. Much love <3

Explosive Joseph

So sorry to hear what IG did to you Giu, it seems like they are really cracking down on the wrong people on that platform. We'll keep supporting you on patreon, keep strong and you will get through this ❤😘

Mauricio Barajas

That's terrible what they did to your account 😕 I hope you stay strong and keep being you because you did nothing wrong.

Da_robblar

I'm so sorry to hear that, I have no idea how this would affect you, other than what you wrote down. I wish there was a way to assist in alleviating some of those pressures, in regards to your employer/ads/promotions/etc. Stay strong, don't change to get back onto IG (you said you won't anyway), you have your fans/patrons that want to help, or will find other ways to further your employment/finances. I'm more than willing to follow you on whatever venue I find you on (I have been so far). This will make you stronger, and better able to move forward. As I tend to say, "You got this" :D And fuck IG, glad I never signed up for it.

GiuHellsing

Thank you so much Nico, I kinda lost still, but I know everything will turns out!

GiuHellsing

Thanks casey, you always be there for me ;,,; have no words!

Nico_Artoo

GiuHellsing

GiuHellsing

GiuHellsing

GiuHellsing

GiuHellsing

Yeap... I mean, if I did something truly wrong, okay, I got it. But I was working on IG for so long... =/ thank you so much joseph, you are amazing!

Miceal

GiuHellsing

GiuHellsing

Thank you so much Ivan, you are such asweetie!

Danny Valencia

So not cool Giu. Whatever happens, we got your back and wishing you the best! Keep working hard and making things happen! You're an excellent woman!

Talles Almeida

Giu, que absurdo. Mas esperar o quê de uma empresa que censura pessoas e empresas? Que apoia uma agenda liberal e progressista mas é extremamente conservadora e autoritária?

Talles Almeida

Estou a seu lado, e se precisar estou a disposição. Talvez seja a hora de ir além e pensar em um novo projeto. Beijão!

Ernesto Montalve

Damn! I am so sorry this happened, I have been with workshops so I didn't realize this has happened, I did try to access your account and saw something odd, but was too damn busy to actually think. Dear, one of the reasons I began using Instagram is you, ok, now I follow more people), wherever you go I follow, I love your work and the enthusiasm you apply to everything, and it saddens me that this happened because I understand your contacts and business partners and employers were all there because is where there is movement. Whatever you need, we are here for you dear.

Ernesto Montalve

Dear, about the Instagram situation if you are in a position to get a lawyer you should. Instagram by deleting your account with no forewarning is damaging your person and your business, this falls under "damages" both moral and economic, if you can (and I am sure we can all help you one way or another) sue, you are in your right and is not fair for your or your business partners suffer for Instagram inability to communicate or support their users. You have found ways of protecting legally your copyright material, you should do the same with this on Instagram.

GiuHellsing

Awnnnn thank you so much for your support babe! I honestly never been on IG for likes or anything, just to get in touch with people andddddd to work... so for me, I think there's no back there =/

Maniacal Media

Damn, what they did is seriously messed up. It also sucks you have to do damage control for something they did. In my opinion its their loss though. Because you are going to grow your brand even more without them holding you back!😁 I'll be wishing you luck, positive vibes, prayers and all the hugs this teddybear can give.❤🖤

GiuHellsing

Thank you so much sweetie, Idk if they will back, probably not =/

GiuHellsing

né verdade? ;..; é bem triste, mas não podemos esperar menos!

GiuHellsing

yeap, I'll try, but =/ still a little shaked about this =// thank you for all the support Ernesto! for reals!

Archer4prez

No one knew when it first started that Instagram would be bought out by the ugly Facebook horde, who has treated it poorly and only wants to squeeze it for any profit they can get from it. I hate Facebook for what they've done to the world, and Instagram is just a short step below it at this point. I'm very sorry that you lost all the work you put into IG, but I'm also happy that you have this chance to break away and live free! Good luck, and I will keep cheering you on!

Vajazzle McDildertits

We are so grateful Giu we are rooting for you! Wish you all the best ❤️❤️❤️

GiuHellsing

awnn i wish sweetie! thank you so much for your support Ryan!

GiuHellsing

I think I feel the same... I mean, I'm super sad, but now there's nothing holding me back! thank you for your support babeee

Ernesto Montalve

Dear we are for here and believe me, I understand, something like that is a world-shattering event (your world, your security, and work) the idea (and I know you understand that) is that your contracts won't hurt you, you are not in breach of contract of your own volition, but because those assholes hurt you, and if we can hurt them back we will just let us know.

MrKnobb

So sorry to hear, keep strong girl. Seems new liberal run companies don't need any reason to do just what they feel like doing.

Edilberto Farfán Saavedra

I do not know if it is helpful, but by the msn of Patreon I leave you a link to a copy that I had of many of your instagram photos. Good luck Giu.

Giulio Dainese

Oh no,i cant believe it,I'm close to you, for what it's worth

VitAnyaNaked

It is very sad to hear such news from you. I can't help but agree with you that this is terribly unfair. I am sorry and hope that you will not lose heart. Keep your great work up!
