Im very upset, My youtube channel has been suspended. (updated)

Yet you can still find IS propaganda bullshit on there along with gender neutral asexual feminist vegans vlogs on how to not vaccine your kids and have them rejected by elementary schools (happened here in Italy lol)..

This society is dumbing down everything, everything has to be politically correct and if you say "gun" you're a terrorist..

I hope you get your channel back Marc..

Also, f*ck YouTube, that's not a valid reason to quit airsoft at all ;)  unless you're novritsch and you can't sell your overpriced bolt action anymore..
Is he struggling to sell? I thought everyone was snapping up those bargain rifles. haha  

 
What I meant is:

Novritsch is selling his gun because of YouTube, if YT shuts down his channel he won't sell it anymore..

Ofc he sells a lot of them, most kids are "oh with his gun I will rape everyone" while it's only a extremely high power gun. it only takes a properly tuned mancraft sdik slapped onto a vsr10 to outperform the ssg.. And it's waaaaay cheaper..

Sorry, I hate him, it's just that all the new kids here show up with sniper rifles and they don't even know how to put their glasses on, purely because of him..

They show up for a couple of Sundays and then quit because being a sniper here in Italy is completely different than in the rest of the world..

Sorry again for the salt. If mods want to remove this part because it's not on topic, feel free to do it.

Back on topic:

Marc shouldn't give up on airsoft because of a dumb multinational company, apparently ran by gender neutral feminist vegans that decided to shut down his channel because of the word "gun" in a video, nor should any of us..

 
Unfortunately it's also happening to a lot of airgun channels as well, always without reason and appeals fall on deaf ears.

Morons in power have deemed airsoft and airguns as just as dangerous as live firing AR15s etc.

People are morons

 
Hi all, I hope its ok that I put this here,  last thing I want to do is get in trouble here. :)
 
But I wanted to update everyone.. 
As I'm still waiting on YouTube to manually review my channel which could take ages, if ever done, I have now started to upload my videos to dailymotion, to be honest dailymotion is not very good for getting new views and followers or even my old subscribers crossing over etc, but it will at least allow me to upload my videos and eventually get them back on the forums like here so you don't have to look at blank topics I've started, I have updated and sorted a few of my topics on here last night, and I will do the rest within a few days. 
 
http://www.dailymotion.com/search/Clustermarc
 
6 videos done only another 200+ to go lol, and I can only upload a maximum of a 60 minute video in one go and a daily video upload limit of 2 hours worth, so yeah it will take a few months to get them all my videos uploaded I think lol, but I will sort my topics on this forum first so they are not black and keeps the forum tidy.. :)
 
But I'm in it for the long haul,  I'll not make any money off the ads like I did on YouTube too so that's another downside, but I can still do what I enjoy most too making videos and helping people so that's the main thing..
 
Once I sort out dailymotion and the UBC I will then create a clustermarc.com website (website not forum) I've bought the domain name. I will gladly add this forum to it as well if I'm allowed, I will speak to mods/admin closer to the time. 
 
Im still hoping to get my YouTube channel back but I'm not holding my breath so Im sorting other things out.. 
 
Happy shooting all. Roll on tonight it's gun club night. :)
 
ATB Marc

Did you burn your edit film on to DVD? If you didn't then you should. Start up a new channel, edit again what ever they picked up on, and throw some random footage in things like having fun with friends, film your cat (If you have one) This apparently brings in other people to your channel, obviously focus MOST of your film on your hobby, I have a mate who films a lot of his rifle shooting at the firing range, he also films his washing machine washing his clothes..... He has 100 and odd thousand follows, mainly for his washing. haha I let you all find him on YouTube rather than send you a link! Spare you the boredem. 

 
Sadly it seems like YouTube is following the same lines as Farcebook. I'd heard a little while ago they had stopped all earnings connected with anything to do with firearms.

Instagram isn't without its problems. I tried to promote a custom Xbox controller on there recently and it was denied as the said my Web site and feed promote the sale of airsoft guns. 

 
Hi all, well its looks like i have my final update for you and unfortunately its not a good one.. here is my last reply from youtube..

Hi Marc,
Hope you're doing good.
After review, we have decided to keep your account suspended based on our Community Guidelines and Terms of Service. The channel cannot be reinstated as it violates our guidelines.
Please visit http://www.youtube.com/t/community_guidelines for more information. Do let me know if you have additional questions.
Best,
Nick

My reply to them is:

Hello Nick, well thats a shame as i know it does not violate your guidelines. and has not done so for over 3 years now, my channel is a airsoft and airgun review and tutorial channel, just like all the other airsoft and airgun review channels on youtube that have got reinstated, (although i know they are much bigger then mine so they bring you much more money then my channel did)

If my channel violates your guidelines, could you please be specify or describe the exact guidelines i am meant to be breaking as i know im not breaking any, since your youtube has updated it has unjustifiably put a wrong flagging system in place, which is pointout and and flagging videos and channels like mine that are not breaking terms of guidelines, to be honest nick this is shocking, so if my channel has in fact been manually reviewed please specify the exact guidelines i have broken, and not just send a link to your wide range of guidelines to follow.. (i know i follow them all)

All the best marc..

I hope youtube gets taken over by another plateform such as facebook or anyother video hosting plateform to be honest as the way they are treating the shooting sports and hobbies is just shocking,, oh well life goes on doesnt it.. :)

happy shooting all...

ATB, Marc..

 
Automated response. No human reviewed your case. You're wasting your time by replying as there's nobody there to listen. Its just a bot disguised as a human that picks out certain keywords and links you to FAQ/TOS pages based off your response.

Airsoftology did a video about YouTube shutting down Airsoft channels earlier. Might be worth contacting him and see if he could help boost your numbers by mentioning your new channel.

Then you'll have the exact same problem just from different companies... youtubes moderation is fairly inline with most millenials views nowadays.

i have also been talking to a real youtube person mate, not nick but another person called jose, they where in my history links, i do believe this time is was not an automatied replied as i had plenty of those in senconds from last emai..

it took them over a week to a apparently manually review my channel, which i still believe they did not do,, as i know im not breaking guidelines, so be honest i dont think theres much point trying to contact airsoftology, without sounding nasty most channels are just looking out for themselves now, in fact the only willingness to help support i have been given by other youtubers have been from airgun channels not airsoft, although i have had a good few helpful replies from people here like yourself and other forums etc, which im grateful for.. :)

I might try contacting airsoftology, well will see a few days to chill and destress is needed now lol..

Happy shooting All..

ATB, Marc..

 
I'm still not convinced that you're speaking to a human. They don't have the staff to start and no offense intended but you're a tiny channel which brings in little - if any - revenue so why would they care? Next time you email them ask them some easy questions like "What colour is the sky?" and see what the response is. No answer will confirm my theory.

Just a suggestion mate. He'll probably ignore it but he does read the comments and feature them in his vids. As long as you don't mention anything about sharing your content and just explain the situation perhaps he'd be willing to help. 

I think it's ridiculous that people like Logan Paul can show a suicide victim hanging from a tree to millions of followers but you try and show a Airsofter how to take apart his gun and you get banned for it? Dumb. 

AF-UK should have it's own little video sharing module.

*wants this so bad*
 

If only there was a place we could put it and an admin would do something about it? 
Oh wait... we have the place... just not the admin lol.

the messages i was getting from jose before nick i know was a real person as we was having proper flowing conversations, but you could be right about the reply from nick, yeah on my other reply to them i have asked to specify what guideline im breaking if they cant answer it well to be honest they can go jump.

no offence taken my channel was very small compared to other and even though in two years i earned youtube over 56K thats nothing compared to the millions other channels earn for them, (lol in two years they earn £56,000 from me i earn £320 ish)

I know we could go on for days talking about the shocking videos that youtube allow, but stuff erm lol..

ATB, Marc :)

Unlikely.  They're getting very close to passing the Turing Test.

LindyBeige on YouTube had every single video demonetised. With over half a million subs and over a hundred million of views, he still got shunted to the chatbot.  He only twigged when he asked it why anyone would choose smooth peanut butter when crunchy is available, and that tripped up its algorithm.  Google are very good are automating the process of fobbing you off.

had another reply! from youtube today after this one they can fekk right off, and they got a polite but @rsy message from me, i really wanted to call them something though lol..

youtube reply:

I do understand your disappointment, Marc.

 
But, our specialists have reviewed your channel and found your content violating our guidelines. I'll not be able to provide detailed information.
 
Appreciate your understanding. Have a good day!

My reply back:

Hello, but surly if one of your specialists! have manually reveiwed my channel then they should know im not violating ANY guidelines, and if they think i am they should be able to tell me exactly what guidelines i am meant to be breaking? to be totally honest i am not understanding of your decision i think its highly unfair and disgraceful as i know for a FACT my channel does not violate your guidelines, its funny how my small channel was one of the first channels to be affected by your new update and all of the big channels that too was affected by the same update/algorithm have been reinstated and mine has not, we create the same content the only difference is the amount of money they make you..

 
It has been 3 years of my work and helping people and you did not give any warnings or even give me the time to save my videoes or contact my subscribers, i am very shocked how you treat law abiding citizens and someone who follows your guideline i could point you to hundreds of channel and thousands of video that do not follow your guidelines but you let them remain..
 
And to be honest it would not surprise me if the replies i have been getting are automated and not even from a real person as you clearly can't tell me what guideline i am meant to be breaking..
 
Regards, marc..

Its ok though, for anyone that follows me on here you will be able to see all my content going on dailymotion.. :)

ATB, Marc..

 
Fuq YouTube, and the feminist vegans running it :P

Still, IS propaganda or general violence is still going strong on YT..

Just yesterday I came across a video of dogs viciously tearing cats and other animals apart (I like dogs, that video made me want to kick my roommate's one tho).. That video's been around for a while (according to its upload date), yet nobody said anything..

I was going to upload a review of my new chest rig, I guess I'll put that on vimeo instead..

 
I'm sorry but not in the least surprised to hear that YouTube don't want you, Marc.

its funny how my small channel was one of the first channels to be affected by your new update and all of the big channels that too was affected by the same update/algorithm have been reinstated and mine has not, we create the same content the only difference is the amount of money they make you..


I think you've nailed it.  They will come for any content featuring "assault style" items sooner or later, it's just that they've come for you first.  When they reach Novritsch, there will be nobody left to speak up for him.

Best of luck sharing your content on a less Progressive platform.
