Blocked from Bookshelf

So that we can provide faster and better support, this forum (the "Public Suggestion Box") has been retired. Instead, please send any suggestions you have to us using the official website contact form.

This allows us to streamline our support system so that we can get to your message much faster. Instead of our support staff having to check three different places (support forum, suggestion box, and contact form messages), they know can respond to all message through one method, with that one method being the official website contact form.

Blocked from Bookshelf

Post by crisjohnson »

Hi,
I'm new to this "club" and found a book I was interested in reading well getting more information on. Now I'm "blocked" from accessing my bookshelf and can't do anything as far as adding books or even to select a book from my bookshelf to review. How do I remedy? Also why is this even permitted in the first place. Authors, publishers or whomever should not be permitted to place any incomplete items for review as well as one should not be "blocked" from accessing their bookshelf.

I would still like to participate in this "club" but this is really making me have second thoughts about participating further.

That book is there for a reason, and it only counts against your account if you rate it (meaning you are rating a book you have not (could not have) read. Also, it has a blurb that makes it very clear what will happen if you do.

The notice you received about this should provide information about how to appeal this, and is the only way to do so. :tiphat:

What is grief, if not love persevering?

Grief is just love with no place to go.
