@FairyLabYT @TeamYouTube @TeamYouTube help!

Hello @TeamYouTube. UPDATE: My gaming channel was removed almost 2 months ago, and now I’m being told it won’t be restored? I waited almost 2 months for my channel review. During all this time, I was told that my case was being reviewed. But during that same period, my channel was actually RESTORED, stayed active FOR 5 DAYS, and then got REMOVED again. Now I’m receiving a response about "Spam, deceptive practices & scams" even though my channel does not contain spam, misleading content, scams, artificial engagement, external redirects, or mass reuploads. My videos are gameplay recordings and mod reviews for the popular music game. And I have a question: if I hadn’t made my previous post, would I have received any response at all?

@FairyLabYT @TeamYouTube @TeamYouTube It's exactly the same situation, my channel was deleted almost two months ago and still hasn't been restored. I'm having the exact same conversation with support right now.

Hello, @TeamYouTube. It will soon be 2 months since my gaming channel was removed. It was removed on April 8 for “spam, fraud, and deception policies.” During this time, the channel was restored for exactly 5 days before being removed again for the same reason. As of now, it still remains deleted. Since April 8, I still haven’t received any resolution regarding this mistake. So far, I’ve only seen template responses in DMs, although I truly hope this is simply how the review process works in situations like this. Thank you for at least not ignoring my requests and for continuing to look into my case. I still hope that my channel will eventually be restored. URL: youtube.com/channel/UCAw-E…

Hello, @TeamYouTube My gaming channel has still remained deleted since April 8. So far, I’ve only received template responses, but I still hope that you are genuinely looking into this issue and that my channel will be restored. Thank you for at least not ignoring my requests.

@FairyLabYT @TeamYouTube I'm in exactly the same situation right now. I've been waiting for my gaming channel to be reviewed for over a month now, and it was removed for exactly the same reason @TeamYouTube

Hello, @TeamYouTube. At this point, the conversation with support unfortunately feels more and more like template responses. Honestly, I no longer understand what is taking so long to review in my case, but I truly hope it will be worth it. Still, thank you for at least not ignoring my requests. My gaming channel was removed on April 8 for “spam, fraud, and deception policies.” During this time, it was restored for exactly 5 days before being removed again. As of now, the channel still remains deleted. I still want to believe that you are genuinely looking into this issue and that my case will receive a proper review. I also see that many creators are eventually able to restore monetization on their channels, which is genuinely good to see. I hope I’ll be fortunate enough at least to have my channel restored, considering it did not violate any of the listed policies. URL: youtube.com/channel/UCAw-E…

@FairyLabYT @TeamYouTube My channel is in exactly the same situation. It’s been exactly one month, and I still haven’t received any decision regarding my channel. I don’t know how many more months I’ll have to wait for a decision @TeamYouTube

Hello, @TeamYouTube. My gaming channel has been deleted for a month now. Exactly one month ago, on April 8, my gaming channel was removed for "spam, fraud, and deception policies" During this time, the channel was restored for exactly 5 days before being removed again for the same reason. Support contacted me, however I still haven’t received any actual result regarding my case. Only template responses saying that the matter is being reviewed. Meanwhile, my channel has remained deleted this entire time. Could you please let me know how much longer the review of my situation may take? I would really appreciate any information.

Hi, @TeamYouTube. It has been exactly one month since my gaming channel was removed on April 8. I contacted support on April 9, but still haven’t received any actual update regarding my case. The channel remains deleted. Are there any updates?

@FairyLabYT @TeamYouTube @TeamYouTube Your AI moderation system has destroyed the Roblox animation channel. My gaming channel was also destroyed by the same AI moderation system

YouTube removed a 760k Roblox channel @TeamYouTube This is about the Bloomation channel. Roblox videos where all animation was created manually, with hundreds of hours of work invested. No reuploads, no scams or fraud. The reason given was “spam, fraud, and deception policies.” How do original Roblox animations fall under this reason? This is the creator’s only channel. Result: the channel was completely removed from @YouTube. It’s been almost a month since the deletion. The appeal was rejected, and the decision remains unchanged. The situation becomes even more concerning when you realize this is not an isolated case. Many animators are now facing the same issue: original channels getting demonetized, removed, or penalized by YouTube support and automated AI systems. These are not scammers. These are creative people who spent years building their channels, only to lose them. I strongly ask @TeamYouTube to take this situation seriously and reconsider the decisions made by the AI system, which is increasingly making critical mistakes. I ask everyone who reads this post to help bring attention to this problem. This can affect any creator at any moment. Many animation channels are already facing this, and YouTube needs to pay attention to what is happening.

@DreamchikTwit @TeamYouTube @TeamYouTube My gaming channel was also taken down for the same reason nearly a month ago and still hasn’t been restored. YouTube urgently needs to fix the terrible AI moderation system they use for such serious decisions

A 760k Roblox animation channel was deleted by @TeamYouTube Reason: “spam, fraud, and deception policies". Which is just insane. "Bloomation" created original Roblox animations. All animations, scripting, and editing were done manually by the creator. No reuploads. No spam. No scams. Still: the channel was removed. It’s been almost a month. The appeal was rejected, and support responses didn’t provide any clear explanation. How can original animation be treated as spam or fraud? And this isn’t an isolated case. More and more creators are facing similar removals, often linked to automated AI decisions. I ask for your maximum support. @TeamYouTube , please take a closer look at this.

Thank you @TeamYouTube for your response and for not ignoring my requests. However, my channel has remained deleted for almost a month since April 8. I hope this situation will be resolved soon.

Hello @TeamYouTube, my channel was removed on April 8. It has now been 20 days since I first reached out to support, and I haven’t received a single response with any information about my case. I would really appreciate any update. I am still waiting for your response.

@FairyLabYT @TeamYouTube @TeamYouTube My channel was removed for the same reason on April 8, but I still haven't received a resolution regarding it, I hope this will be resolved soon

Hello @TeamYouTube, I would like to share an update regarding my case. After my channel was removed again (just 5 days after being restored), my appeal for reinstatement was also rejected. The reason given is “spam, fraud, and deception policies,” however this does not reflect the reality of my content, which is original and not related to spam, fraud, or deceptive practices. I’m not sure how this is possible, considering the channel had already been reviewed and restored, even if only for 5 days. Could you please clarify how this situation can occur? (screenshots below are 12 days apart). I would really appreciate any explanation or additional information. URL: youtube.com/channel/UCAw-E…

Hello @TeamYouTube, my channel was removed on April 8. I reached out on April 9, and thank you for looking into my case. However, I haven’t received any updates since. Could you please share an estimated timeframe? URL: youtube.com/channel/UCm1hj…

@FairyLabYT @TeamYouTube @TeamYouTube My channel was taken down for the same reason, but I was making the same kind of videos about this popular game. Please help us! We don’t spam or scam anyone, we just play games and make reviews

Hi @TeamYouTube, my gaming channel was removed again after being restored. Channel history: For the entire 2 years before this situation, I was creating and consistently uploading videos every day March 4 - demonetization April 8 - channel removed (reason: spam, fraud, and deception policies) April 15 - channel restored April 20 - removed again for the same reason My channel focused on gameplay content. I manually created mods in Scratch, made character animations in Adobe Animate, recorded gameplay using OBS, edited videos in CapCut, and designed thumbnails in Adobe Photoshop. I want to emphasize that I did not engage in spam, fraud, or deceptive practices. I believe this may be a mistake. URL: youtube.com/channel/UCAw-E…
