    So my youtube video has 2 million+ views and is a year old and they pull this shit...

    One of my youtube videos has 2 million + views and has been on there for over 10 months. It gets about 20,000 views per day right now and that makes me a good $600+ per month from their ad sharing program (easy easy money) well today all of a sudden the video was flagged and can't be viewed by minors which means my ads wont display anymore. $6,000+ per year down the drain and now I'm also afraid of this happening to the rest of my videos. How can a video go that long and then get flagged out of the blue like that?

          That's the problem people flag shit just because they see you getting a lot of views.

              Why not resubmit the video with identical keywords and such?

                Just a random street fight. I mean damn I sell these same clips and stuff to Spike and Tru TV for the world to see and youtube censors it? WTF???


                I know you can't have any fights of people getting hurt, jumped or at school etc.... but my videos I upload are very tame for this reason but still they are censoring them.


                Seems like if you even say a naughty word there is a chance they will censor your video.

                    Well I got lucky on the vid, it used to only get like 1,000 views a day but once it got to the million mark I guess it made everyone click on it a lot more and it just went out of control from there. I could do that but I'm not sure it would take off the same again.

                        When you get that many views don't delete any comments.
                        The A-hole can come back to rate your video low and flag it.

                        How do you sign up for ad sharing?

                          Yeah, a million views attracts another million for sure.
                          Not easy to just get that spot back.

                            is there any way you can hit up google and ask them to de-flag it?

                                there are more haters in here then ever and it is not the first time you have made threads about the easy easy money you make on youtube. Next time insted of making another thread go out and spend that easy easy money and I bet you will have more at the end of the day

                                          Thats what I was wondering. Anybody that sees my videos can tell they are not offensive at all and I am clearly being targeted by certain people. I wonder how many flags you need to get to have this happen in the first place.

                                            That sucks, I see a lot of street fighting videos being tagged, most of Kimbo's are.

                                              I'm surprised that the guys at Nasty don't have kimbo's videos under their accounts

                                                Happened to me several times, not with that many views, but as soon as a video attracts alot of attention, there are always some assholes flagging it...and if it's controversial in any way, it gets pulled. This rule doesn't apply to fluffy funny animals, cute babies and any self proclaimed crusaders for a good cause.

                                                    Interesting. I have another video that has been flagged since day one and has about 400,000 views and I just noticed they de-flagged that video. I wonder how this works. I mean its in their best interest to keep my ads up cause thats more money for them.

                                                    Maybe once somebody reviews my account they will see that the video is not bad at all and de-flag this one as well. I mean damn an extra $6,000 for google is an extra $6,000.

                                                          The people making the racist comments are more likely to seek revenge.
                                                          They have a "vested" belief in their comments.

                                                          I think I hit the nail on the head about why your video got smacked.

                                                          It sucks, but when the website gives power to the surfer you will get this kind
                                                          of situation.

                                                          I hate ebay for the exact thing that should make it great.
                                                          The feedback is great info when buying but buyers are also holding the sellers hostage
                                                          sometimes by threatening to leave negative feedback if they don't get all the "extras"
                                                          that they want. I also bought some crap on ebay and was afraid to leave negative feedback because the seller didn't leave my feedback yet.

I haven't seen a flagging bot yet, but I wouldn't doubt it if people got them tucker away too. All it takes is a few flags from a bunch of generated accounts and you can kiss your shit goodbye.
