YouTube Streams are back on the menu - Wtf Twitch? (General Chatting Stream)
37The ride never ends. I just want to edit videos, do streams and engage with my great community, but here we are again. On this chatting stream; I'll explain the latest nonsense, talk about upcoming plans & content, as well as generally chat and answer questions. There will be a LIVE Victoria 2 campaign as one of the big 4 countries in DoD commencing on Sundays from 5PM GMT here on YouTube.
720p is all you will get on this vod.
Rundown: On Sunday 10th March at 1:27PM my time, while I was out with my family enjoying Mother's Day, I received an e-mail from Twitch saying that my account has been temporarily suspended. Reason: "hateful conduct", on a video clip which I posted on 13th April 2021 - three years ago. Here's the clip: https://youtu.be/E0wqvxx8kRk. As I explain in this community post, https://www.youtube.com/post/Ugkx9mLHQocF5BZqTjza1jXHHc7qgeKNnX0- , the meme was entirely based on the context of a campaign I was streaming in 2021. The naughty word in question is a Bad Frank quote from this: https://youtu.be/3ZD-5HZ486I and in both cases the portrayal of the theoretical character saying the word is very negative in context. Twitch's action is ludicrously retroactive, completely wrong on the context and unfairly selective amidst severely worse content all over their disgraced platform.
I posted some Tweets about it to raise awareness - https://twitter.com/SpudgunO/status/1766923323718402410 , https://twitter.com/SpudgunO/status/1767306999660740624 . Soon after I received the suspension, I lodged an internal appeal, which was rejected on Monday 11th March 2:55 PM. I'll talk about this all in more detail on the stream, as well as explaining my plans going forward which includes returning to YouTube streaming.
At this uncertain and stressful time, I am appealing for support to the channel - by superchats/memberships on YouTube and subscriptions on Patreon - because this ridiculous and wrongful act by Twitch is an attack on my livelihood.
