Squashie Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 3 minutes ago, greenday.stuff said: Would it be easier if someone made a Google form rather than a spreadsheet? It would keep their information confidential, and it’s a lot easier to make sure everyone is included. It’s easy to share around and that’s what we need. It can be very hard cause not everyone is on Green Day authority. The forms are not hard to navigate. I just think it would make everyone’s life a lot easier. It's best to just DM BeachBum so not everyone's information is public. Some don't use email and instead have phone numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenday.stuff Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 The thing with the form is that your informs is kept private. You can put all your information in there that needs to be given and only the person who creates the form will be able to see (unless it is physically shared with someone else I believe). It would be the same as a dm to BeachBum. It would just be a shareable form. There are tons of people who don’t have accounts on here, and it can be really hard to share information and keep people updated. I can only do so much. Have any of you even done a google form before? It’s like a survey. Your info is sent it and it is only seen by the creator of the form and shared collaborators. Phone numbers or email, it can all be put in there privately, without conflict. 1 hour ago, BeachBum said: These are the accounts I currently have information for @greenday_ita @greendaybrasiloficial @gdmiarg @greendayinc @greendaymx @greenday.stuff @greendayitalianrageandlove @greendayjournal @greendayslongview @godsfave @gdlot @greendaychile Just want to make sure you know that the account is @godsfaveband in case you weren’t just abbreviating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can fill the form and send for them to review.

If the case is just about copyrighted images, every account or GD/Billie Joe page has been sharing the almost same images and copyrighted content but then why not every page affected by that? Now I've seen people saying like you cannot have greenday on your username or your account will be deleted but I don’t think it’s just about that because the accounts who do not have greenday on their username or even profile pictures got disabled (or deleted) as well and some other gd named accounts are still online and they are still sharing the copyrighted pictures. And also some pages that got diabled was not even sharing pics but mostly covers, some of them was just sharing live concert footages, they seem had a more appearent copyrighted material but there are still accounts can share music video clips on Instagram and they are not official or verified accounts but Instagram does not take action for them. So overall, I don't still think this whole thing makes sense in a solid way, and if all the other pages would continue sharing the copyrighted content without affecting from now on, I would consider that unfair for all of us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I don't know the answer to that. I did complain about a scam account that was asking budding photographers for money to show their photos and it took IG six months to reply so that's why I say it could take time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, I don't think they would feel good about the absence of them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So do you think it’s worth it to fill out that form? I’m just terrified of my account getting deleted. Can they do that if they don’t find what I say convincing enough? If I don’t know that the gd team are working to fix the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, I cannot be sure about things you’re asking. I don’t think it would do anything to send the form anyways. So, you might not do it, I just shared because I think it would be a better option than sending e-mail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I decided to go ahead and send the form. I wrote a very long message. Hopefully they read it. I think if we get more people who got disabled to fill out that form, they will take notice. You don’t have to send in your ID or anything for that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdmadeinargentina Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Theorically, in the first instagram notice (when they disabled the accounts) it said something like "30 days to assess the situation." This is why most of our accounts are listed as "disabled", not in a "deleted" status. We try to generate the claim with the ID. But nothing happened yet. We think it must be something related to the instagram algorithm. That is why there are accounts that still work, normally these changes in the networks take time and are random. The name of the account, it was said at first but we did not have that and we are in the same situation. Accounts that did not have videos were also terminated, perhaps it is an error of Instagram and its algorithm trying to "eliminate accounts that impersonate identities. Since that was the message that was received the first time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenday.stuff Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Hey so I've been watching videos on how to get my account back, and I figured that I would let everyone know that all of instagram's support forms for disabled accounts are down, besides the one that was linked in the chat earlier. Also I got a reply back from Instagram after I filled it out and it replied in Japanese. Super weird. I tried another one but I haven't gotten anything yet. I'll keep everyone posted if I make any progress. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btw, all the e-mail comes from Facebook/Instagram is in Japanese, they don’t use English. You shoud have gotten another one like that earlier. When I replied it, they sent another one in Japanese again. Also, I couldn't find anything to write rather than saying "impersonating is not never my intention, I was just posting some fan page content like the other hundereds of pages on Instagram that have been posting the exact same content as me." and that doesn't seem convincing enough, I guess lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post BeachBum Posted February 26, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 26, 2021 Guys Instagram is notorious for it's horrible and slow support so realistically this is not something that will be sorted out over 2-3 days. The band's management is aware of the issue and working on it so let's give them a chance to work on the issue. They will update us when they have new information to share. 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IcyMoffatt Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 I'm sorry about the delay for replying following what I've written last meekend about article 13 voted by the European Union. Let me clear some things. First, even if it has been voted by the European Union, the effect is global. Accounts can be seen everywhere. If a account would have been blocked in one country, it is still viewable in another one. People will find ways to share the content of the blocked account on others that are accessible. Article 13 asked social medias to have legal licenses for everything posted online. In other words, if you posted something made/photographed by you, you're the owner and you must have the license for it to be posted. If you posted something, even with giving the credits, you don't have the license since it's not your work. You're then illegal. For Instagram, it means to take down everything and to keep the original sources only. And as for how the accounts have been found by Instagram, there are a few things that explained it. Yes, the username can be one reason, but not the only one. The avatar used showing the artist/brand, the artist/brand name's presence in the bio, the common hastags used by the artist/brand, posting pictures that don't belong to you, etc. It's a combination of things that the algoriths are searching. You only need one to be taken down. For now, the only thing that can protect your account, if yours is still opened, is to change your setting to private. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marie_GD Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Our statement for now: Hey everyone, as you know by now most Green Day fan accounts have been suspended by instagram without reason or warning. We took up @trecool ‘s advice and created a new page until matters, hopefully, get resolved, so that we still have a place to connect here. #greenday Instagram.com/greendayinc_ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
