Appeal WON! 2nd Youtube Strike REMOVED!

WHEW! Good news for a change. The 2nd Community Guideline Strike that I was given yesterday for a Tekken 7 video ("Natsu VS Josie") has been overturned as I have won the Appeal. Fortunately, in contrast to the IDIOT who flagged the video, someone higher up in Youtube has deemed our content to not be in violation of the TOS. Hopefully this sets a precedent and we will no longer be in the crosshairs of some Puritan Asshole Intern who wanted to get some dead channels under their belt.

This doesn't mean we're completely off the hook- we do still have one strike still up, which annoyingly I feel could have been appealed as well, but sadly I made the mistake of deleting the video immediately when I saw the strike notification. This was a BAD idea, since deleting the flagged video prevents any appeals (so DO NOT delete vids that are flagged, appeal it first).

However, with just one strike (that will lapse in July) my Youtube channel is no longer teetering at the edge of a cliff and in immediate danger of deletion. I still feel the need to be a bit wary of what I post, so we'll be laying low for a bit (but not too much). This is honestly the best birthday gift I can get from Youtube. Thanks for everyone's well wishes, we're still alive. For now.

Anyway, life goes on... stay tuned for more content soon. Later then!
