UPDATED! YouTube Account RESTORED!

[Dasgust]

Tweeted and shared with people. This is horribly unfair.

[KennyFarino]

Tweet and shared everywhere, as well as making a Blistered Thumbs page reporting on the news so that support could be rallied against this unfair action! GameJams supports the OCRemix community!

[Sinewav]

Be sure to set the tubes up in parallel. We've seen what happens when one thing breaks in this current series of tubes.

Yeah, ever since they shut GeoCities down, the whole thing has gone straight to hell.

[PhatJon]

Is You Tube really that out of touch? How can they not know what OCRemix is about. This whole debacle has got to be the work of some moderator over there that is living under a rock.

Nope, it's an automated server that's done it.

Apparently, if a channel gets enough flags, then a server will suspend the account. Then someone else has to come and check out the claim, then decide to fix it or not, based on the claims and the flags sent, in this case, "spam".

How about we begin emailing Google and YouTube about it?

[Cash]

I made a twitter account just for the occasion, which I'll probably never use unless OCR needs my help again. I tweeted and shared on Facebook. I hope the account is up and running again soon.

[LiquidRain]

Total balls! I've tweeted at YouTube from the Rainwave account, for what it's worth.

I also know someone who works at YouTube, and I forwarded him this info. He said he'd be reaching out soon. That might be worth more than my tweet.

[edit] The YT account is back up!

[Jason Covenant]

Yay, it's back.

[Brandon Strader]

Looks like it has to generate all new thumbnails, hahaha!! Glad the videos are back though. That's a lot of thumbnails to regenerate. It's their own darn fault.

[Ryan Jobson]

Nice teamwork guys! Glad this was all sorted out! Huzzah for the OCReMix Community!

[Crulex]

Victory is OCR's!

yay.

[Angry Ancestor]

*applause* Yay! Well done to everyone involved in the restoration movement.

[psychowolf]

Nice work everyone.

[SuperiorX]

Did they ever explain why they actually disabled it in the first place?

[Dyne]

EXCELLENT NEWS! Congrats OCR for getting your YouTube Channel back!

[myudoicp]

GJ guys.

Any news/reason/explanations about it?

*Edit: Good thing I haven't deleted my embedded videos, everything working as expected.

[timaeus222]

Success! All is well again! =d

[CC Ricers]

GOOD NEWS EVERYONE, you are now reading this message in Dr. Farnsworth's voice.

And score one for the OCR crew. I can get back to my regularly scheduled listening of Goonies 2 - I'm Taking It All Back, which was my plan before the channel went under.

[Bored_Man]

This reminded me a whole lot of the issue with SilvaGunner and others that uploaded music. At least Youtube has no actual reason to keep ocremix's channel down, so thank goodness for that.

[Mae]

VICTOLY! Now back to lurking by not lurking.

[Dj Mokram]

Yay! Glad that the account was brought back to life so swiftly.

By the way, in regard to:

it’s pretty much impossible for us to be commercially deceptive.

I'm just gonna go ahead and speculate since no other reason for the takedown was given and this wasn't mentioned anywhere in this thread.

Could the links in every video description to buy hoodies/shirts and to make donations have led some people to draw the wrong conclusions?

[cfx]

I was joking. I spammed that shit on twitter anyway. TWICE!

I did one cookie-cutter and one of my own.

[Sinewav]

I did one cookie-cutter and one of my own.

Yeah, same here. I retweeted MAGFest and wrote out my own.

[DaMonz]

Yay!

I'm glad this took so little time!

[Platonist]

congratulation, guys.

if i had seen this sooner, i would've tweeted my ass off
