Tumblr Problems - SapphireSkylines - 10-05-2016

Hey! So on Tumblr I actually have two blogs, one for my character Relana back on Zalera and then one for Y'zhara on Balmung. Whenever I follow a blog, it says I'm following the blog on Relana, which makes people follow her blog... when I want people to follow my more active one - Zhara's. I've tried figuring out how to delete Relana's blog, I've tried making Zhara's blog the default blog, but I can't seem to do either of those. 

I'd rather keep Relana's blog, because she does have neat stuff on it, but I have no idea if there's a way to make Zhara's blog my account's default blog. 

Any suggestions? Thanks!

It's a tumbl limitation. Whatever blog you started with is the one that people will follow because they'll get a notification from your primary account. Secondary blogs won't make a notification because they can't actually follow things.

Update: I actually researched on how to fix this problem... apparently there's no real solution. Advice to anyone wanting to make a secondary blog on a tumblr account: Don't do it! If you want to make a new blog, just create a new tumblr account all together, it's not worth it.

Another Update: Yeah... thanks Unnamed Mercenary. I wish I knew that before I made a secondary blog lol.

I worked around this in the past by having my primary account as a general RP hub for my stuff, and then linking off to any character specific blogs I have there.

But, that solution isn't for everyone!
