Nerosmyfavorite68 Posted Friday at 02:43 AM · Member Share Posted Friday at 02:43 AM Was there some sudden damnatio memoriae upon the Aaron Berk youtube channel? Youtube often acts for no reason, but I don't recall anything too out there happening in the latest one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AncientJoe Posted Friday at 02:55 AM · Member Share Posted Friday at 02:55 AM Very strange - they aren't showing up for me either and visiting a known link to one of the episodes results in this message: Hopefully it's just a random error and not some erroneous banning by Youtube. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Postvmvs Posted Friday at 03:05 AM · Member Share Posted Friday at 03:05 AM (edited) The channel just crossed 100K subscribers, which is an insane number for a niche channel getting a few hundred views per video. Perhaps the channel got banned for artificially increasing their subscribers. Edited Friday at 03:26 AM by Postvmvs 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerosmyfavorite68 Posted Friday at 03:06 AM · Member Author Share Posted Friday at 03:06 AM Yes, I first noticed that screen on another post. A youtube search of the channel turns up nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Limes Posted Friday at 11:22 AM · Supporter Share Posted Friday at 11:22 AM It hope it gets fixed. I enjoy the show. I saw a new episode posted, and when I clicked on the link, I was shown the same message as AncientJoe. Is anyone a member on their Facebook page? Is something mentioned about the situation, there? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Conduitt Posted Friday at 11:58 AM · Supporter Share Posted Friday at 11:58 AM The bot may have simply looked at the subscriber volume as mentioned above. Average subscriber to view ratios: 1,000 subscribers: Expect around 140 views per video 100,000 subscribers: Expect between 12-15,000 views per video So they should be getting 12,000 views per video, not 1,200. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kali Posted Friday at 01:13 PM · Member Share Posted Friday at 01:13 PM Those "bots" are terrible. It's just as bad, if not worse on Instagram. Simple comments get flagged by the mod bots and you get comment ban suspensions or account bans and it's brutal to get an account back on instagram. There are loads of posts made daily on the instagram sub-reddit over it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerosmyfavorite68 Posted Friday at 04:11 PM · Member Author Share Posted Friday at 04:11 PM Mike Nottelman mentioned on another forum that it was likely due to the new short segments, excerpted from the podcasts, and that one, taken out of context, was verging on NSFW, and was flagged by the bots. One of my favorite youtubers makes jokes that would make John Waters blush, and nothing more serious happens than demonetization. It's strange how these bots work...

Ocatarinetabellatchitchix Posted Friday at 07:59 PM · Member Share Posted Friday at 07:59 PM (edited) Just received this: « Thanks for your concern. Youtube's bot took down the entire page for a short clip on the Roman erotic tokens for nudity. We are appealing to an internal team, and I am told it will take time but should be put back up as the nudity was educational not sexual in nature. Not sure why they would not just take down the one video and not entire page, but it is what it is. We are on top of it and working hard to get it fixed. Thanks again for your concern and support. » Aaron Edited Friday at 08:00 PM by Ocatarinetabellatchitchix 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think his originates from a Roman cartoon, which I remember seeing once on public access. The guy was the butler or servant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victrix Posted Friday at 10:03 PM · Member Share Posted Friday at 10:03 PM Either way it's in really bad taste to buy subscribers and they clearly did. They should be punished for that in my opinion even if it may be an unpopular one. Plenty of coin youtubers who work hard for their channels.🤷♂️ 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although "sexual" in nature it's not any more offensive" then other coins or art depicting a nude scene. And the video in question has been on youtube for a while so someone must have recently filed a complaint. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
