Youtube deleted his account

[A Platypus Rave is Correct]

I was Guessing this is due to him posting history of the power rangers...but the reason listed is odd...

This account has been terminated due to multiple or severe violations of YouTube's policy against spam, deceptive practices, and misleading content or other Terms of Service violations.

and his response was

Update from him

Sooo, yeah, many people may have noticed that my youtube channel is gone, removed without warning, strikes, or explanation. The best they sent was that I had “violated youtube guidelines which prohibit spam, scams, or commercially deceptive content.” Best guesses at this point is either a glitch in the system, false flags by trolls, or someone at youtube took me seriously when I continually joked that I was the greatest scammer ever by giving people what they actually paid for. But most likely just a glitch.

As it happens, there is currently no actual explanation. This has happened to other channels before, most notably I Hate Everything, who came up with a solution or two that MIGHT work, but for now Screenwave is contacting youtube to try to have this all sorted out. They apparently have had luck with this sort of thing before and HOPEFULLY everything will be back to normal soon (and of course this happened at the start of the weekend, so it’s possible we won’t get this sorted until at least Monday, but we’ll see).

In the meantime, all the Screenwave embeds SHOULD be functional if you want to watch old material. I am also finally setting up a Vid.me account and I am proceeding with work on the next episode. I’ll try to keep people updated on this as best as I can and I apologize for the inconvenience.

Still down. I wouldn't be surprised if whoever is in charge of Power Rangers these days did a sweep on YT in preparation of the new movie.

If I was James Rolfe, I'd be walking on eggshells in that case (granted, the only PR video of his i watched was the video game review which didnt have any footage, but still,,).

[A Platypus Rave is Correct]

I would think that maybe but he said he had no strikes nor was he told why it was taken down... I would think they would have sent him a strike,

Also the way the takedown was noted wasn't the usually constant copyright claims it was worded like it was a scam,

[andrew8798]

The channel is back up

Just in time for the new episode to be up.

[andrew8798]

So what was the cause?

So what happened? Well, turns out it may not have ENTIRELY been a glitch. I wouldn’t even call it trolling. Whenever youtube changes something, it tends to run videos through the ContentID ringer again. It’s possible they even altered how sensitive the thing is. Once my channel was restored, about 25 or so ContentID claims came pouring into my e-mail. Looks like aaaall of those came into youtube at once and either automatically or arbitrarily decided, “Eh, screw that channel.” In fact, while I am typing this, I am STILL getting a few claims trickling in on any number of videos for using music or clips.

Some of these will be legitimate claims on my videos. After all, I HAVE used copyrighted clips in my content outside of that which applies to Fair Use. Some of them, though, with a cursory glance, include Longbox videos using music that I have officially purchased and licensed, so those are going to be fought first. This will be a case-by-case basis where I’ll have to decide whether it’s worth my time to fight it or just edit them and reupload them. Needless to say, though, I am VERY grateful to all of you for your continued support. This was a very stressful weekend with concerns about what I’d do over this and I’m going to do my damndest to keep the channel going.

[A Platypus Rave is Correct]

and he of course had a joke at the end of his next video with Fist of the North Star.

"Time for me to review Fist of the North Star."
"hey Linkara you're already dead."
*price is right fail horns.*

[wildojinx]

I wonder if he's ever considered reviewing the Marvel Godzilla comic, which actually (briefly) put Godzilla in the Marvel Universe.

[BlackoutCreature]

Nothing too interesting coming up. I am interested to see where Kingdom of Monsters goes. The first two issues weren't really bad, just kinda repetitive, but #3 was getting pretty nuts. Hopefully we'll get more Lady Gaga expy's wearing "Godzilla being crucified" dresses.

I'm not sure how I feel about "The Wedding of Iron Man". I'm kinda iffy of the 90's Iron Man cartoon in general. I don't think the first season is as bad as some people claim, but I also really don't think the second season was as good as some people claim. I am however very interested in the "Force Works" era of Iron Man. A bunch of random characters and a guy I never even heard of form an obscure team during the comic industries lowest point, it disappears quickly and without any fanfare and would be completely forgotten about nowadays if it wasn't for this damn cartoon. This is like my dream project for the next MCU movie.

Athena #3? Man, I completely forgot that Athena was something Linkara was doing. It's been 3 years since he did #2 and seven years since #1. If he was gonna pull an old series out of mothballs I would've rather have it been something like New Guardians or Jack Kirby's 2001.

I don't know anything about Batman: The Dark Knight. Is it in any way tied to Crazy Steve?

And then another event month where he reviews nothing but good comics (I think, never actually read Flashpoint). I'd still rather see Linkara eliminate things like this.

[andrew8798]

Nothing with Crazy Steve

Wasnt Force Works essentially the West Coast Avengers with a new name? At least the lineup was the same.

But more extreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeme.

Though the Iron Man cartoon version of the team inexplicably left U.S. Agent off its roster.

[A Platypus Rave is Correct]

There is no more Crazy Steve.

All Star Batman and Robin is done, and Dark Knight Returns 3 is too new.

If it's Dark Knight volume 1 which was a new Batman book that started in January 2011... and lasted until October 2011 when the New 52 started.

Otherwise it's Dark Knight Volume 2 which started with the New 52

Either way issues 1-3 stops halfway through both stories.....

[wildojinx]

Looking forward to Infinity Gauntlet, as I just got done reading that one.
