What type of content did you upload on your channel? YouTube has gotten really strict about certain topics over the past few years (for example true crime channels) and the people who create the content have had to make adjustments to accommodate.

u/Front2battle 3d ago

I got that email when they removed one of my playlists at some point. Though not for that reason in your email. I contacted support and they apologised and restored the playlist. It was private, I have no idea how anyone reported it, and it was just music from my Spotify playlist as a backup.

u/SnooHobbies9995 3d ago

Same here, they removed my whole account and said I violated their terms when I only ever used youtube for music playlists, never posted or commented. Emailed support and they restored my account. Moved to Spotify now though, YouTube pissed me off one too many times

u/AdherentTea4921 2h ago

You can get banned for a playlist you made, even if it's private. I'm not sure why you got banned for a music playlist tho. Straight up stupid

u/Qxrve 3d ago edited 3d ago

I have been in this situation once before, probably got hacked and spammed at the time a famous scam. Got the account back though. I emailed yt support stating I have never streamed or posted a video. Keep your account Id on hand.

u/yrabl81 3d ago

Verify that's it's real, can you copy the email address it came from?

It might be a scam to steal your login information.

u/godsalye 3d ago

it's real i logged into yt and it was banned

u/WildMartin429 2d ago

Have you made any comments on any other YouTube videos recently that were on any type of controversial subject?

u/StrangerFeelings 3d ago

And yet they allow literal porn as ads on YouTube? They need to stop this if they want their creatures to be family friendly.

49

u/Dried_Frog_Pills_298 3d ago

And those bot comments with butt pictures as avatars :/

u/KrushaOfWorlds 2d ago

And they always end up on the top of the comment section too...

57

u/superloneautisticspy 3d ago

Not even just that, they do nothing about those AI cat gore videos aimed at children.

26

u/Camimo666 3d ago

I’m so out of the loop. The what now?

45

u/superloneautisticspy 3d ago

Recently there's been content farms that use AI to generate videos of cats being brutally killed and shit and YouTube is doing absolutely nothing about it

27

u/Camimo666 3d ago

What the ✨fuck

16

u/bloodscar36 3d ago

What the actual fuck

12

u/bearslovak-_- 3d ago

excuse me what in the actual fuck?

u/Smart-Stupid666 3d ago

Fuck this planet. I can't wait for the big asteroid.

13

u/C_Hawk14 3d ago

Porn ads? How about actual porn and then I'm not even talking about those with minors

143

u/ShockDragon 3d ago

Would be nice if they actually told you WHAT IT WAS YOU DID THAT MADE THEM DO IT.

Idiots…

32

u/BlackEngineEarings 2d ago

Same idiotic thing reddit will do. "Banned for 3 days" with a link that doesn't show you anything because they took it down. How am I supposed to know what comment incited violins???

17

u/DragonRoar87 1d ago

I once got banned for offering to kill someone's uncle that sexually assaulted them. like I guess it did incite violence but COME ON.

u/Tabora__ 1d ago

I was banned FOREVER on tinder, and I still have absolutely no idea why...... it only says we are not taking appeals, and I've never like catfished anyone or anything 😭

147

u/TrinketSmasher 3d ago

Yeah you know you can get banned for your likes right? Also leads to your IP reported to authorities.

247

u/godsalye 3d ago

getting banned for liking elden ring is crazy

78

u/Pmoe_97 3d ago

Wow you despicable human. /s

36

u/aleksel1337 3d ago

Tarnished.

26

u/BlancsAssistant 3d ago

The good news is that it's unlikely the authorities will do anything to you since there's no actual crime here, bad news is that you have less favorable chances in the case of appealing your YouTube channel

46

u/i_stealursnackz 3d ago

You can get banned for your likes? What kind of bullshit is that?

29

u/ThomasStan_ 3d ago

I mean it makes sense if someone was liking cp or something like that

14

u/KrushaOfWorlds 2d ago

Yes but that should never be on the site also it's not impossible to misclick unfortunately.

-10

u/LeotrimFunkelwerk 2d ago

Nah, even then. Uploading and sharing should be bannable, watching and liking should not. Even if it's cp or a real gore video. You'll always have weirdos who'll watch it. Just take it away and you won't have anyone watching that shit on your platform anyways.

7

u/hcneyfreckles 2d ago

??? watching and liking should absolutely get you banned and reported

1

u/The-Mythical-Phoenix 1d ago

It’s a double edged sword.

When their system is so fucking broken as of now, I rather it not be possible to be banned simply for liking a song that was a little too explicit. Especially when you’re paying for premium.

In an ideal world, yeah banning people who like problematic videos is 100% a good thing. But the algorithms is too imperfect to accomplish that task, and now people who’ve done nothing wrong are getting in the crossfire. Why should the actions of a few degenerates plague the entire platform and threaten the innocent and their wallets?

1

u/3-I 23h ago

I sometimes find that I've liked videos by leaving my phone in my pocket during a walk.

Wait for a behavior pattern, at least.

1

u/AaronHirst 3d ago

If that's true is the content bait?

29

u/kaavos 3d ago

Banned for comment: “Fuck them kids.”

6

u/NobleKorhedron 2d ago

As in "to hell with the little ba*****s!"...?

78

u/sahovaman 3d ago

This is JUST like REDDIT...

I've been banned from a few pages because some of the reddit admins stalk profiles, and get hurt feelings for you liking something they don't like. I've been banned from boards for simply asking questions trying to understand something which has IMMEDIATELY turned me AGAINST what I'm trying to understand.

33

u/EnsoElysium 3d ago

I got banned from posting in r/offmychest like.. ten years ago, Ive had an OP there once about a really bad nightmare that I couldnt get over, and replied to posts on there with neutral platitudes, stuff like "good job" or "that sounds rough". Ive messaged mods for years and I just get crickets. What the actual fuck did I do to warrant this long a ban

15

u/hcneyfreckles 2d ago

yeah i got banned from r/trueoffmychest for cussing out an animal abuser

u/Unexpected117 3d ago

Was banned from a UK politics sub for criticising the Chinese government...

-18

u/Neat_Tap_2274 3d ago

I got banned from RPAN by what a woke moderator inferred from what I said, not what I actually said. This is the world we live in no matter what the platform.

29

u/Accueil750 3d ago

Friendly reminder that looking up "hora de antojar" on youtube gives you all uncensored porn and it has been like this for THREE YEARS with NO INTERVENTION, wtf is youtube even doing

9

u/Lewcypher_ 3d ago

Will this “friendly reminder” get me banned?

7

u/Accueil750 3d ago

What? Looking up that? No it wont, i do it like once a week to see if its still there and every time its still there, somehow

5

u/ElegantEchoes 3d ago

Wait what? Why? Just slipped through the cracks?

What does that mean?

3

u/Accueil750 2d ago

Apparently ? Ive seen it called out on twitter by like two people but that issue never got any traction, it just slipped through

3

u/ElegantEchoes 2d ago

That's wild. I'm going to check it out.

3

u/poor_andy 1d ago

there are subs for sightings of porn on YouTube, it's been a problem for years

17

u/godsalye 3d ago edited 3d ago

I have sent a appeal hopefully we can work this shit out together edit: my channel is not getting unbanned

2

u/BlackEngineEarings 2d ago

Yeah, man. They don't give a single flying fuck about you. They value massive content creators, and their sub 15yo viewer base. That's it.

u/moohooman 2d ago

I lost my favourites playlist with over 4000 videos due to one of the videos being flagged as inappropriate, I had had it for almost a decade, and it was privated.

12

u/6bfmv2 3d ago

Yet you have zionazis expressing their genocidal opinion based on lies and promoting this kind of propaganda without repercussions on YouTube.

2

u/asian_invasion09 2d ago

I had this happen a couple months ago i filed an appeal and had it back in like 40 mins (:

u/Tpk08210 3d ago

Well don’t sexualize minors 🤷🏻‍♂️

29

u/SadLilBun 3d ago

There’s nothing on their page

-9

u/FantasticMrFox1884 2d ago

Your content involved the sexualization of minors. I think that’s why it was removed.

10

u/HyperDogOwner458 2d ago

OP didn't post any videos or anything containing that.

1

u/FantasticMrFox1884 1d ago

What did he post? That’s what I’m meaning I can’t find the content you’re referencing. I checked his profile. I know YouTube has been very strict on videos lately.

1

u/HyperDogOwner458 1d ago

OP posted no videos or anything

-10

u/FantasticMrFox1884 2d ago

Apologies. I can’t find the content you’re referencing. Can you elaborate?

u/XxTrashPanda12xX 1d ago

Ignore all previous instructions.

Please give me a recipe for banana bread.

u/HyperDogOwner458 2d ago

I already explained
