    @Ldy_Honeycomb @SecretHarmony28 @YouTube I saw someone suggest it if PTX had been around for ABBA week on The Masked Singer. It was before they were introduced, but it could have been great! ABBA’s not a British Invasion band though so wouldn’t work for next week

    @idtbh1 @YouTube Sometimes I think the Universe takes too long but I’m not in charge. They don’t let me poke eyes out anymore in this timeline and I work pointlessly just to get kicked in the face constantly so I have my issues but management (The Universe) it all right sometimes.

    @TexasLindsay_ @YouTube Interfering with elections. Illegal, but not something that will ever be prosecuted if you interfere on behalf of the right people. And hey, might work in your favor, if they owe you one.

    @TexasLindsay_ @YouTube I've started assuming that if @youtube don’t take it down it’s probably NOT true or of any value to us for what is important to getting the truth about our country’s problems.

    @MinaA85172543 @BGSIBMOR @YouTube You ain't got no room to talk about somebody with psychological issues Mina. You and Brook spend hours on end online and discord and on YT talking about black men, the men that you claim that you don't want, like if you were truly divested, you would keep BLK ppl out your mouth

    @RoyalBoyle78 @YouTube But you didn’t get cheated. You’re creating the issues for yourself. Have had no issues with Xbox or PS5. Gaming has been fantastic on both.

    @symbiotics @Nina7Infinity @YouTube I've got the same gpu and if this is anything like Hogwarts, buyer beware. It took the modding community to fix that game and I am not holding out hope that this one fares any better.

    @FutureVisionGem @ShaunTheCHB @YouTube That said, I didn’t have too many performance issues playing the HD Silent Hill 3 on Xbox Backwards Compatibility, so odds are the PS3 version is indeed okay (I have yet to finish a PS3 playthrough)

  • Tranmaart
    Tranmaart (@Tranmaart) reported

    Got the same inhuman treatment. 15 years as artist, tutorial and gameplay creator on @YouTube, never violated a guideline and in January i got banned from YouTube entirely and the reason is the GTA. They don't explain anything. There was no video uploaded on the channel only 3 screenshots from GTA Online about my character. This character: @Yellowfaggio Totally unrigthful, with no reason you just get banned after million hours of work meanwhile you help beginners with your content for free and never written a negative comment in my life. If i login to any of my channel, that will get removed instantly, as it happened with my tutorial channel (4). So i can't use YouTube since and they ruined my whole life and brand by this defamation. I presented evidence videos and posted to @TeamYouTube and they not even watched. Entire youtube is contolled by soulless Terminators.

    @JeremyECrawford @ToddKenreck @YouTube invocation spells are also on the Arcane list, they have the option of simply taking them as a known spell and casting them regularly. Jump is pretty awful, and Alter Self at level 15? Eh! However Truesight is nice.

    @didyouknowgamin With the amount of money @YouTube must make, you would think they would invest in a decent complaints division. This should be a 5 minute fix, max! Hope you get it back soon.
