RESTRICTED
🕑 Added 2024-01-27 16:17:11 +0000 UTCYouTube says we used "hateful" language in this week's show, so they're taking money out of our pocket. The ad revenue is "limited." If anybody can find egregous instances in this week's episode that used especially harsh language or whatever they found "twice," and only if you have a sec, please let me know and I'll try to cut those out. What an unexpectedly stressful day!

I suspected it was the fat thing too, because it's early and happens twice. Wouldve thought War but they say it way more than twice

Did Vengeance-edging get flagged??

They reference the Blob exactly twice at the beginning. Maybe the algorithm thinks it's body shaming?
ComicPop
Thank you for the timestamp! I'm going to look at that moment, see if it can be pulled too. I can't believe they don't just point to the issue. Instead they just give vague judgements.

Not yet

Was going to peek yesterday and yesterday got in the way. Did this get resolved?

Them saying they found it twice is really bothering me, because I'm looking through it now. If YouTube suddenly has a problem with the f-word, "fuck" is said 8 times. "Suicide" is mentioned once in regards to Eddie helping out people collect on life insurance but who don't want to commit suicide (10:35). I see you removed the mention of "Rapey", so if that fixed it, cool. Not cool that you had to edit it, but cool if YouTube got the stick out and gave you guys your money back.

Youtube gets extra pissy about the first 30 seconds and you said "War" several times in that window and also said, "There's no war". I could see how a bot might confuse this with commentary on Ukraine, but not a human.

Maybe YouTube is sensitive about giant goop monsters eating horses.

Y’all’s rep as the “bad boys” of comics criticism strikes again. But honestly, this sucks.

I made a subtitle file in case anyone wants to skim through the text. or do a full-text search for a phrase. You guys never said the word 'cannibal' but 'eat people' and 'eating people' came up a lot. Other than that, i can't think of anything that you haven't said before, like bomb or sex or anything objectionable. https://gist.github.com/ninjajosh/5606bbe63c8c56702c937ac1be9c6f8a#file-sal-srt

That sucks. I can't imagine they had a real person look through the vid.
ComicPop
We did... This is the ruling.
Ninja Josh
Having watched 300-400 episodes of back-issues, the only thing I can think of off the top of my head that this episode had more of than others might be mentions of cannibalism. I'll pull a transcript later and skim it to see if I can find anything.
Christopher Wolf
Any way this can be appealed?
ComicPop
VERY possible! They hate that word.

Damn. Tf sorry to hear this I hope you can figure this out and doesn't change the conversations on the couch I enjoy the natural feel to the conversations nothing really feels censored, self censored or like if y'all try to tip toe around any subject matter it's genuine sincere and that's one thing that made me a fan and that's kept me here keep your head up sal. Love ya guys

This has been happening a lot lately. YouTube deleted a podcast just this past week because of a link that was attached to it that wasn't even connected to that channel

Nothing was said that wasn't true especially how Grapey Eddie Brock was in his original story
Myles_EXVS
I didn't notice any hateful languages when i saw the ep
Andrew Van Ness
Maybe because it mentions Eddie being date rapey?
Rami Darwish
WTF, I watched the episode last night and the episode had nothing of the sort!
