Wow I didn't think it was that gross. Wondering what would happen to ToysToMee now.[DOUBLEPOST=1511312230,1511312024][/DOUBLEPOST]By the way, it's possible they deleted all these channels for providing misleading metadata, especially titles, for example Johny Johny Yes Papa. It's not allowed by YT. I think big channels thought that they can break rules and nothing would happen. In this case no law challenge will stand a chance.

Sounds like they had no choice after the March Ad crisis. Hope nobody doing the right thing gets caught up in this.

That is (or maybe was) the big problem - you follow trends or we will not promote you. Hopefully YT will now appreciate creativity and promote it.

The algorithm is flawed fundamentally. It promotes popular content. It doesn;t discriminate what that content is. Everyone sees a spider on a kids face get 50M views and $50,000, they but a few spider props for $10 and a few hours later have an equivalent video. You can't fault the creators - we only do what the algo tells us to do. Sure I can spend $80 of the latest Thomas set and unbox it, but the algo, and views don't care, so where is the incentive? Youtube is as much to blame for this as creators are - Yt let ideas get out of control and widely promoted them, encouraging others to get on the bandwagon.

Agree it's a design flaw, it doesn't promote creativity, it promotes being obnoxious and over the top instead because it sees people like that but things spiraled completely out of control due to that. While I didn't like the food wasting part of some of Vlad Crazyshow videos, I did think they made a lot of cute, funny and entertaining videos. Don't think they and several others deserved to loose their channels like this.

They may come back... once everyone gets the point. There have been a number of sizeable channels put offline in recent years that returned with zero explanation. Guess more will be known in another week or two.[DOUBLEPOST=1511321111,1511320995][/DOUBLEPOST]

Yes true, some were a bit over the top but ok for 7 yo and above in my opinion. My daughter liked their channel. On a separate note I just noticed lots of videos are gone from both of your channels - did you remove them yourself or it's YT?

Quite a lot of them removed by youtube, I decided to delete most of the rest of them were I could be in trouble. I got a Community Guidelines strike this evening on Kids Corner and with all the channels dropping like flies I decided to just remove most of what people could complain about myself and keep the channels alive. Seems they went for the top first, if they move top down in this mopup activity it would/will be my turn soon too. Hopefully they will now skip me.
