If your Hashnode account has been suspended and you wish to get it reinstated, follow these steps:
Step 1: Identify the Reason for Suspension
Before contacting Hashnode support, check any notification emails you may have received from Hashnode. Typically, when your account is suspended, you will receive an email explaining the reason, such as violating community guidelines or posting inappropriate content.
If you haven’t received any email, you can proceed with the following steps.
Step 2: Review the Hashnode Community Guidelines
To avoid future violations, it's important to thoroughly read the Hashnode Community Guidelines.
These guidelines primarily cover sharing tech-related content, programming, and maintaining a respectful community. Ensure that your posts do not violate these rules.
Step 3: Send a Support Request Email
If you believe your account was suspended without clear justification or you want to resolve the issue, follow these steps to send an email to Hashnode support:
Draft a support request email using the following template:
Subject: Request to Restore Suspended Hashnode Account

I kindly request your assistance in restoring my account. Thank you for your support and attention to this matter. Best regards, [Your Name] [Email associated with the account]Send the email to:
hello@hashnode.com
Step 4: Wait for a Response from Hashnode
After sending your support request, wait for Hashnode's response. The response time may vary depending on their support team’s workload.
During this period, avoid creating a new account, as this could be viewed as further violation of Hashnode's terms.

If your account is restored, ensure that your future posts comply with Hashnode’s community guidelines.
