Our main channel was vlogolution. I still have screenshots of our sub and view counts from those days for posterity (one of our videos alone, at the time, had over 30 million views)! lol
I've always wondered how far we could have gotten there without so much resistance from the YouTube "powers that be". But then again, seeing what's happened the past year... like Alex Jones, imagine having budgeted millions expecting a certain level of income from YouTube, and then it evaporates overnight. Of course, all the more "incentive" to "keep your nut low". I actually wrote a bit more about it in a comment on Anegelo's intro post if you're curious.
Why did you delete the channel all together though?!
we didn't delete it. you can click through and see it's still there. we just haven't really posted any new content on it because nearly everything we posted would be immediately flagged down and/or demonetized as "inappropriate". for example, forget about demonetization, they completely pulled our "I'M OUT OF TOILET PAPER" video off our channel (and other videos as well). At the time, that one video was earning around $150/day on average! However, it still exists on a copycat channel (it's our user name but spelled with I's instead of L's)! For some reason, they never felt the need to remove that copy, despite numerous requests while ours was still live on YouTube!
Ironic, though, how YouTube has no problem monetizing Katy Perry's despicable latest video Bon Appetit, now at 152 MILLION views and counting! So much for "inappropriate for YouTube", if that doesn't stick it right to the gut of every other "hard working" YouTuber, I dunno what does!
Yeah I know we had a video demonetized yesterday that is called: 7 Most Heartwarming good deeds... How about that?!
and there ya go... now ask me if I'm shocked! lol
But I can say this, WELCOME TO STEEMIT! 😁
Thank you :)
