So frustrating that they have not sorted it out. Hang in there man

Sorry you've continued to have issues, dear one. Doing our part to "enlighten SC admins to changes they NEED to make to remain a viable platform for creators!!!

oh my , i had no idea this was happening to you , and reading all these comments here it happened to so many others , very frustrating indeed , personally i havent got any problems so far ( lucky me )  but maybe that is because i am not as an active member as some of you are , anyway , i cant believe this is happening to you , you are always so frienly , giving the most wonderfull comments , why being punished for that ? unbelieveable . i would love to see soundcloud punishing people that just push the like button or comment without even listening and sad enough soundcloud has so many people doing this .

It reminds me of Jimi Hendrix, good track

lovely wild guitar ! Gary I have also been blocked several times for basically saying thank you, one thing I have tried when this happens,  is to delete there cookies, that might help ;)

So sorry, Gary! I have found only one frustrating cause and remedy to these calamitous moments on SC -the cause- my system reboot wipes my login to SC and I have to reset my account. Once I had to create FB account just to log into SC. Another issue could be the settings. SC wants/needs us to not use some of the security features that block ads. Try adjusting that too. It is frustrating. I have felt the victim on this issue of not being able to comment, too! Patience and determination. I was just about at the point of deleting and starting a new account. Be patient and tray all of their tech ideas, and investigate your own system. Hoping for a fix for you, sooner than later!

Very cool ending guitar solo, with some Hendrix feel like someone said ;) Hope that you could solve your problems on Sc...

Hope this is all sorted now. How annoying! Helen x

Oh~~Love this live house resonance....Super cool Rock trio play...

*UPDATE.  After a 5day hiatus, tried to say thanks to all those who have been leaving comments for 'River To River' this morning (Sunday 11 Dec.) but was blocked again after only 2 hours, during which time I was able to send 43 replies.
I will resume as soon as I get the chance.  Apologies to all I haven't had the chance to thank as yet.  It's clear I won't be able to continue like this so have decided to stop active interaction with SC after the end of the year.  Will try to keep everyone posted on developments. (Gary)

Original Message, left on Monday, 5 December...

For the fourth time in the last few weeks, I have been blocked from making or replying to comments and also cannot sign-in to my repost page. My sincere apologies to you all for the radio silence but it is not of my choosing.
I have written to the SoundCloud Helpdesk to ask why this is happening and to say they have not exactly been helpful is something of an understatement. This is part of their reply:
"If the issue persists, it’s possible that you might have been flagged by our anti-spam systems. These systems are automated, and although we’re always refining and improving their detection measures, it is difficult to ensure that they’re always 100% accurate.
They focus on detecting accounts posting large numbers of similar or identical comments in a 24 hour period, to people who haven't recently interacted with them. Looking at your comments, even though they are positive, they don't always vary so much. This is why you've run in to this block a few times.
To avoid being blocked, we would suggest making each comment unique to the person you're contacting, or trying to cut down on the total number of comments you make in a day. The more personal and unique the comment you make, the more memorable it will be to the person receiving it. "
I replied, disagreeing strongly about leaving similar replies, particularly to accounts I have not previously interacted with. I also asked many questions to precisely ascertain any prescribed limits SC have on leaving likes & comments and on reposts. They didn't answer my questions, stating merely "I understand your frustration however, as mentioned, these are automatic anti-spam systems and when a user gets blocked, we cannot removed (sic) the block from their account before it's due to expire."

I have written individual messages to friends here on SC and the same has happened to many of them. They too have written to the Helpdesk without success.You are never let into the secret about how long the block will last, neither it's specific reason for being applied in the first place. Piecing together what I have been told by others, you can be flagged for leaving too many likes, too many comments (and comments that are too long) and reposting too many songs. But you have no way of knowing exactly which because they will not tell you, relying solely on the explanation that as the system is automatic, there is nothing they can do.

The way I have operated my account hasn't differed very much over the 9+ years I have been on the platform and am puzzled as to why the problem has only arisen over the past few weeks. Right now, I am not too sure what I can and cannot do. What I do know is that I am heartily fed up with being treated with contempt which is why I have been forced into the decision of stopping active interaction with SC from the end of 2022.

I heartily wish things were different but as I said, it's clear that it is impossible to carry on like this...

Lyrics:

Here we are, lost in haze
In an endless concrete maze
Working for our enslavement
nature giving way to pavement

Turn our back on truth
Our convenience is now a prison
Sold lies of a better tomorrow
Consumed by greed, promises hollow

Money's your God now

Hungry ghosts wail and moan
Believed the lies they were shown
Mouths agape at parlor tricks
Pied pipers’ lead to the river Styx

Forgot everything that’s come before
Bathed in the manufactured glow
Consuming all of our attention
cradle to grave their sole intention

We never take the time to ask
Who profits from our pain and lack
We watch others fall through the cracks
Our morals no longer intact

Black mirrors sell a vision
Improve our fallen condition
$19.99 for the golden calf
It’s half-off, better act fast

Slip down the evolutionary ladder
Brains shrink with each misstep
Sell our souls to get our kicks
How many skeletons got rich quick

Money's your God now
You can have it all
Did you think that it was free?

Babylon built brick by brick
Bad decisions wall us in
Search for the escape hatch
buried beneath mounds of scratch

We’ve reached critical mass
No attention span left to ask
Why the foundation is so cracked
Tipping point has been surpassed

Life valued less than common cents
Even our bodies have been lent
Ones and zeroes decide our fate
Plastic identity, totally fake

Sign on the dotted line 
Everything goes, name your price
Puppets dangle from golden threads
Souls gone, hearts of lead

Money's your God now
You can have it all
Did you think that it was...

Never enough to feed the beast
Consumes all for its feast
Never stops, feeds and feeds 
Belly bloated on all that breathes

We won’t stop until we reach
The highest peak of idiocy
Almost there, not much time left
We wallow in our lack of depth

There’s still time, we could say no
To this degenerate side-show
Turn back this broken clock
The door will open if we knock

Unless...

Money's your God now
You can have it all
Did you think that it was free?

I came across this little improv I did a while back on Pat Howell's beautifully crafted home-built guitar, and had been keeping it in my back pocket for St. Patty's Day.  In this track I riff on some tunes I've played over the last several years but take on a new richness played on his guitar in drop D tuning.  If you're keeping score, the first is "Emerald Isle", the second is "A Splash of Joy" and last is "Celtic D'lite".  Enjoy with your favorite Irish brew:)
