    YouTube banning airgun videos

    Looks like YouTube have blocked quite a lot of airgun related videos.
    Deemed to violent nature yet I have some real firearms subscriptions that have not been touched
    Like
    Andy airguns review
    Replica airguns(some seeto work but most airgun, airsoft have become private)
    Airgungearshow
    Replica-reviews
    And possibly many more, looks like some are ok at the moment
    B.A.R
    Airgun-review.tv and some others

    Personally it looks like YouTube are forcing their political view or yet another British politicians driving yet another nail in the coffin at UK airgun scene.
    How often do you hear of a shooter(Mainly America) going into a school with airguns and shooting/killing students and teachers.
    Might have to do away with YouTube as a lot of these people who put various types of videos are jumping ship to other platforms but a lot of these charge to use.
    Rant over lol
    Thanks

    Some of them are such poor vids that they should be dropped, not necessarily banned just kicked into a corner with the dust bunnies and the other forgotten detritus.

    I was happily watching Hot Air yesterday evening and I notice Forgotten Weapons is still there so while they may be doing some housekeeping it doesn't seem to be a ban.

    Logan Paul has a lot to answer for . He put a video of a japanese forest that is known for the place to go to commit suicide and he found a hanged man . Videod him,showed his face and joked about it .

    Most of his viewers are kids.
    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...ide-video.html

    Logan Paul appeared on Good Morning America to ask for a 'second chance' on Thursday, a month after he posted a video which showed the corpse of a dead man who had hanged himself in Japan's notorious suicide forest.

    'I think that reason is so I could take this experience, learn from it, spread the message the right way about suicide prevention and suicide prevention awareness,' Paul told Michael Strahan.

    Paul went on to talk about how hard it was to lose millions of dollars following the uproar over his video, the fact that he is 'not a horrible person' and eventually declared that he is a victim.


    No Diddy boy ,Other youtube channels are paying for your stupidity, and you are still on youtube . Maybe 16million subscribers give you a little immunity. The snowflakes are taking over you tube

    youtube - night of the long knives

    Youtube scorched earth policy is here

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVVP5KNbCII&t=9s

    extract from Robert Kyncl's (of TedHoldover's channel):


    Ted's HoldOver
    Published on Feb 24, 2018

    You may notice that all my videos have been privatized. YouTube did not do this. I did. My suspicion is that there is a orchestrated flagging attack on any/all YouTube gun channels. If they can't see my videos, they can't flag them. And, I NEED this ONE video to persist; for my own good and the good of our community at large.

    ... etc ...

    Channels I believe have been struck or terminated unfairly:

    AirgunsofArizona - TERMINATED
    AirgunGearShow - TERMINATED
    Airgun Exploration and Advancement Channel (AEAC) - STRIKE
    Airgun Hunter Extreme channel - TERMINATED
    AirgunWeb - TERMINATED
    Airguns Air Rifles And Pistols - TERMINATED
    AirArmsHuntingSA - STRIKE
    AirgunnerSA - STRIKE
    AmericanAirgunner - TERMINATED
    DaystateLTD - TERMINATED
    HatsanUSA - TERMINATED
    HoldOverVlog - TERMINATED
    PyramydAir - TERMINATED
    UmarexAir - TERMINATED
    UtahAirguns - TERMINATED

    Another plea, this time from AEAC, he’s absolutely heart broken to the point of tears!

    Yet again our community, our way of life is under attack

    Giles said you can still watch his stuff at www.airgungear.com or .co.uk

    He is a reviewer or tester of gear... nothing offensive there...

    Where as shooting sparrows or starlings with 40fpe .25 rifles seems unfair (ish).
