Feast your eyes.

2018-08-16 14:05:53 UTC  

im willing to bet that in the tens of thousands of TYT videos they broke the rules

2018-08-16 14:07:00 UTC  

Yes if the rules were applied equally.

2018-08-16 14:07:11 UTC  

certainly

2018-08-16 14:07:21 UTC  

I find that vague platform rules are always just a catch all for removing ideas and people you dont like

2018-08-16 14:07:28 UTC  

it happens on forums for games as well

2018-08-16 14:07:37 UTC  

The rules seem to be intentionally nebulous on most websites so that the bans can be doled out as pleased, or so that mistaken bans can be excused

2018-08-16 14:08:04 UTC  

there have been a few with a really blatant ingroup that got away with murder and kept special privileges, while other users were banned for small infractions

2018-08-16 14:08:47 UTC  

Are we talking about neogaf here?

2018-08-16 14:08:57 UTC  

thats how society and laws work too in general

2018-08-16 14:09:14 UTC  

Grey areas. I LOVE EM

2018-08-16 14:09:23 UTC  

"Rule 23: And generally, don't be a dick"

2018-08-16 14:09:42 UTC  

Congrats, strawman service, you destroyed all 22 other rules at once with this shitty one.

2018-08-16 14:10:00 UTC  

no, Hawken forums

2018-08-16 14:10:46 UTC  

one user was blatantly harrassing other users, tried to convince people that myself and another users were spies for MWO lol (a game I had played for a total of like 5 minutes fuckaround mode), regularly posted insults on people's personal profiles etc

2018-08-16 14:11:01 UTC  

hahaha

2018-08-16 14:11:07 UTC  

I got a warning once for calling someone a liar after they verifiably lied

2018-08-16 14:11:39 UTC  

like he said I had said something, I told him he was lying and the proof was in a post I had made on the prior page, so he reported me for it and I got a warning lol

Tim should talk about this

2018-08-16 14:13:09 UTC  

is anyone really surprised by that though?

2018-08-16 14:13:31 UTC  

i bet you can find fuck tons of plagiarized content

2018-08-16 14:13:43 UTC  

so lauren southern effectively retired yesterday

2018-08-16 14:13:50 UTC  

from regular YT content yeah

2018-08-16 14:13:57 UTC  

just documentaries now apparently

2018-08-16 14:14:21 UTC  

It's been weird watching her channel growth tbh, particularly since she's from around here

2018-08-16 14:15:10 UTC  

Hey Tim you should make a video about how an editor made his own post copying others even verbatim but claims he use others as inspiration

2018-08-16 14:15:34 UTC  

This closely ties into the game of telephone

2018-08-16 14:15:35 UTC  

There's always going to be shitty people who plagiarize. IGN responded well to this happening.

2018-08-16 14:15:47 UTC  

wait what, why did lauren retire?

2018-08-16 14:15:48 UTC  

this is true

2018-08-16 14:16:05 UTC  

she said she's done with normal YT content. Wanted to focus on documentaries since they make more impact

2018-08-16 14:16:12 UTC  

i see

2018-08-16 14:16:14 UTC  

Oh ign got the short end of the stick

2018-08-16 14:17:01 UTC  

I'm also guessing that making YT content was a waste of time for Lauren. Time and effort spent for zero reward and the risk of getting banned with every upload.

2018-08-16 14:17:12 UTC  

Not like anything she ever publishes can be monetized.

2018-08-16 14:17:32 UTC  

I doubt the documentaries she makes are gonna have an easy time either lol

2018-08-16 14:17:37 UTC  

Why did lauren retire ?

2018-08-16 14:17:42 UTC  

I think it would be interesting for a Lauren Southern to start making documentaries because her latest continent were pretty bad

2018-08-16 14:17:48 UTC  

already mentioned

2018-08-16 14:17:49 UTC  

And she is banned on Patreon and Paypal so she can't get support direct from her viewers.

2018-08-16 14:18:05 UTC  

she could hatereon (sp?)
