One thing I don't get about tumblr is how you lose followers if you don't post enough. It's like... I'm not clogging up your dash, why bother unfollowing me? Maybe I am just weird but I'm more likely to unfollow someone if they post TOO much because I can't keep up.

I mean I'm usually okay because I always gain back whatever I lose (I'm an artist who does drawn fanart so I know my stuff is more suited for tumblr) but I wonder how many tumblr followers I'd have now if people weren't so unfollow happy.

Like I can't always update my tumblr, I'm a pro artist and some stuff I can't show.

I've actually gained followers during a lengthy -and announced- hiatus, so it makes equally no sense both ways.

SA. That happens occasionally to me if someone decides to randomly reblog an old piece. I never understand it either though because I think "this is old... would it even show up in the tags?"

AYRT

I can only think that's what's happening to me too. But you'd think that if people were that interested in more of whatever I post that they'd take a look at my first page, where "HIATUS!" is the very first post title.

Oh, Tumblr. Interested in the stuff and not the person actually giving you the stuff.

you may have been featured on someone's dash as a "recommended blog" with that old post, which is what's happened to me

I kept wondering why random users were finding some old piece of my art, it's tumblr's new "recommended" feature

DA

I put things like that down to Tumblr's pathological obsession with the numbers. "Oh, I've got X amount of followers, but I'm only deigning to follow three people so clearly I'm discerning and not in the least bit elitist!" Or, conversely, the desire not to inflate someone else's follower count if you've decided they're not good enough for your dash anymore.

SA I could see that. I also wonder sometimes if people unfollow me because I don't follow back (I honestly can't follow everyone back though, it'd be entirely too much for my dash on an already slow as hell computer.) I don't really play "tumblr games" with people. I follow who I want and I just hope people follow me because they like my work.

Oh, yeah, I would much rather keep someone on my dash who posts once in two weeks than someone who posts 20+ times a day.

I can follow a few hundred people if most of them are relatively inactive, but if they start spamming, it's a problem.

I have a very random side blog (mostly reblogs) where I might post 10 or 12 times a day on completely different topics, and I'm surprised people follow it. But it's easy on Tumblr to post six times that.
