Please @TeamYouTube message me 🤞

Cereal = perfect

Dear @TeamYouTube . This is my 7th day since my channel was terminated without any specifics, citings, strike, or any clue. Please message me.

@TeamYouTube @WeDoAIStuff With all due respect it is not working this way in reality. My channel was terminated with no warning, so citing, no specific violation. I appealed and was denied within moments. I am asking that you please message me.

You can look into the feedback & appeal options available to you in YouTube Studio, and you can submit an appeal within 21 days of suspension. After submitting your appeal, our teams usually respond within 14 days with a decision, more here: goo.gle/4cKnovG Note that when we review it, your channel will be assessed in its current state

One screenshot. YouTube's own dashboard. Same channel, within two days Three days ago YouTube demonetised my channel of 154 episodes for "inauthentic content - mass produced." My appeal came back denied yesterday. The same week, YouTube's own analytics tool generated this assessment of my latest episode: "performing exceptionally well... an outlier in the best possible way." I've spent 3 years, working 50-70 hours per week building a serialised D&D campaign in an original world, with an audience of 1,250+ paying supporters across BOTH YouTube + Patreon, 500 of whom are now being cut off from supporting what they love, losing membership badges they've held for 2+ years. If nothing else, this is unfair to them, and the damage is done. The denial cites "similar template across multiple videos" as the reason. That criteria applies to every podcast, every gameplay channel, every long-form actual play show on YouTube. I'd genuinely like to understand what specifically distinguishes my work from the formats YouTube actively recommends. The denial also says I can reapply in 90 days "after making changes." But the same email says they can't tell me which videos triggered the decision. You can't fix what you can't identify. And at the risk of repeating myself, what good does that do for the woman who has been with the channel for 1 year 8 months, or the man for 2 years 5 months? Nothing. They're two of the 500 people now being cut off from supporting work they love, through no decision of their own. Or mine. To @TeamYouTube - please open this case for human review. Every cited claim has been addressed with evidence in the replies below. To my audience - please be respectful and polite if you engage. The work continues. I'll see you all Friday on Patreon. - Lewis / TheAIGuy (7 receipts in replies. Audio. Cinematic. Editing. Performance. Audience. Music licensing. The broken process.)

@WeDoAIStuff Uggh. This robot automated massacre of YouTube channels is incredible. I was terminated 7 days ago with no specific citing. @TeamYouTube has yet to message me when they said they would look into it and get back.

Question…

@alfredoistic @TeamYouTube @nealmohan @YouTube @YouTubeInsider So sorry to hear of your plight. This is a real tragedy, what is happening to channels (mine included, terminated). I empathize with you.

After 16 years creating on YouTube, I’ve been demonetized and it really hurts. The replies feel automated, like there’s no real human review anymore. This is my only income. I might stop making content for now @TeamYouTube @nealmohan @YouTube @YouTubeInsider

@KaiKai2492 16.67% increase! That's inflation 📈

Brother you can’t be serious rn

@nailath_vt @TeamYouTube I empathize with you. I never made it to monetization because my channel was terminated without any specific example, citing, warning. So sorry.

Well fuck me i guess. @TeamYouTube I read through your Inauthentic Content Policies... NONE of my Videos are reuploads, NONE are slapped together Clips, NONE are stolen content. I upload ONE Video per day at the most, so NO spam either. I ALWAYS upload something different so its not the same video over and over either. I NEVER upload other peoples content. I upload Gaming Videos, i add commentary and transformative value to reaction videos and my Music videos cant be easily reproduced and are all very different. Where the fuck did i break the policies?! No warning?! No Strike?! No explanation on how to do better?! Just instantly nuking my Bank Account. 👍

@bstuartTI @c_valenzuelab @PsyopAnime Well done. That is a lot of planning, story boarding, imagining, prompting and editing. I'm only good for maybe 3 minutes 😄

This is NULL 📽️🍿 A 15-minute short film. 250,000 Runway credits. Created in 4 days. The all-nighters nearly broke me, but this is the thing I’m most proud of making in film or AI. Thanks for hosting AIF & CPP @c_valenzuelab Thanks for amazing anime inspo's @PsyopAnime

Hoping that @TeamYouTube will message me, so I can get my appeal heard .

Please message me @TeamYouTube . This is Day 6 of my wrongful termination.

@oxDessyxo @YouTube This is tragic. I was just getting started with my channel, enjoying doing something original. I was terminated. But you? 500K subs and they deleted you? This is incredible and incomprehensible. So sorry this happened to you.

Sadly my @YouTube has been banned. I believe these ai systems are wrongfully banning creators as my channel follows the policies. I am so sad because I had years of memories on my channel, since I was young. So much time, money and effort now feeling wasted. I was almost at 500k subs and was so excited to make new content. I am heart broken as YT was one of my favorite platforms. I know many of you loved my videos. I am not really sure what to do now 🥲💔 @YouTubeCreators

Back lot

Feels Springy 💐

@DaveCullenShow @YourselfSuit Where does one go? Every other platform has a definitive "scroll" or "swipe" engagement, not a "sit and watch" like YouTube. Again, I was terminated on YouTube, so I'm languishing in the scroll & swipe platforms now.

@YourselfSuit Hey Suit, I haven't been demonetized yet, just to clarify, I've just been following the story and trying to figure out what's going on. But it's inevitable. This is a massive purge. Tomorrow I'll sit down and assess my options.

May be time to migrate to a place where you can broadcast yourself again and let youtube die.

@DarkGiftComics @TeamYouTube Incredible. I thought I was alone until I came to Twitter to plead with @TeamYouTube to grant me a simple human review of their auto-termination. I empathize with you.

Looks like I'm theatest victim of @TeamYouTube 's newest AI bot. Got me for I authentic and mass produced content, even though I do videos of me playing my guitar, commentary vids/streams, Unboxing vids, physical media vids, karaoke streams, and comic book crowdfunding promo streams.

@DaveCullenShow Thank you for your reporting and commenting on the YouTube termination and cancellation crisis. It is a helpless feeling when my channel and 400+ videos evaporate without warning.

Please @TeamYouTube message me. This is day 5 of my inaccurate termination.
