TeamYouTube only cares when STUFF goes viral. You could literally be terminated from YouTube with ZERO VIDEOS on your channel, show proof, explain exactly what happened, and if your post doesn’t go viral? THEY WOULDN’T GIVE A FLYING FUCK. No viral post? No massive replies? No thousands of reposts? Good luck getting anyone to actually pay attention. But let a situation blow up publicly and suddenly TeamYouTube is there. Suddenly they respond. Suddenly they review it. Suddenly something gets done. WHY DOES A CREATOR HAVE TO GO VIRAL JUST TO BE HEARD? This is supposed to be creator support, not a fucking popularity contest. And this isn’t just about me. Every creator deserves the same chance to have their case actually reviewed, whether they have 100 followers or 10 million. MY STORY WITH YOUTUBE: My YouTube channel had 7K subscribers from January to November 24th. THEN, FOR 5 DAYS, I made CTA videos in Steal a Brainrot, the game I had already been making content on for 11 MONTHS and which was one of the most popular games on Roblox at the time. I was telling people that IF they wanted help unlocking a limited-time in-game item called “Aquatic Base,” they could follow me on Roblox. The item was only available for 2 WEEKS, from November 15th to November 29th. During those 5 days, my channel went from 7K → 25K subscribers because the game was averaging around 15 MILLION PLAYERS during the event and people wanted help getting the item. I did this for 5 DAYS. I NEVER DROPPED A LINK TO ROBLOX. I NEVER FORCED ANYONE TO LEAVE YOUTUBE. I NEVER SHOWED THE ROBLOX APP. I ONLY SHOWED MY ROBLOX USERNAME. I always said “IF” they wanted help. I wasn’t asking for money. I wasn’t running a scam. I wasn’t asking people to give me anything in return. THEN NOVEMBER 30TH HAPPENED. The event was over. I was DONE with the CTA videos. I was going back to making my REGULAR CONTENT. I woke up at 9 AM to an email saying: “Your channel has been terminated.” THE VERY DAY I WAS GOING BACK TO NORMAL CONTENT. No warning. No strike. No “stop doing this.” No chance to fix anything. JUST FUCKING GONE. WHY ARE WE NOT GIVING PEOPLE WARNINGS, YOUTUBE? Instead of telling me to stop, you completely erased everything. MY 25K CHANNEL. MY 40K CHANNEL I BUILT IN 5 MONTHS. AND MY OTHER CHANNELS I BARELY EVEN USED. ALL GONE BECAUSE OF THIS ONE MISTAKE YOU SAY I MADE. I AM NOT A THREAT TO YOUTUBE. I AM BANNED FOR LIFE. I will never be able to make a YouTube channel again because I told people IF they needed help with an in-game item, they could follow me on Roblox. 5 DAYS OF OFFERING HELP. No money. No scams. No links. No forcing people off YouTube. No asking for anything in return. NOW I’M BANNED FOR LIFE? WHAT THE FUCK DID I DO THAT DESERVES A LIFETIME BAN? And I’m supposed to believe the only way to get YouTube’s attention is to somehow make that situation go viral? NO. THAT’S FUCKED. Creators shouldn’t have to build a viral campaign just to get a human being to look at their case. And if YouTube only starts moving when the public pressure becomes big enough, then you’re creating a system where visibility matters more than fairness. That’s not creator support. THAT’S A POPULARITY CONTEST. Every creator deserves real support. Every creator deserves a real review. Every creator deserves a chance to be heard BEFORE YEARS OF WORK ARE WIPED OUT. TEAMYOUTUBE, STOP WAITING FOR THINGS TO GO VIRAL BEFORE YOU GIVE A FUCK.
