    @YouTube @OptimumTechYT a small time but quality YouTuber.

  • __mokshaa Oyemox (@__mokshaa) reported

    My @YouTube channel is hacked. Hackers have transferred the channel to their account. @TeamYouTube has yet to step in and help despite my efforts. @YouTubeIndia

  • nightly_nn nightly (@nightly_nn) reported

    @RapunzelASMR @YouTube You know me, but I honestly had nothing to complain about. It was probably some quiet wind noise in the later part and a few bumps. No trouble whatsoever for me. Someone must be expecting an anechoic chamber.

  • lowens1975 Open the Pod Bay Doors, Hal (@lowens1975) reported

    @BNewtonUK @YouTube That's not medication. Medication doesn't work that fast. That's charm. He wants something, he wants 'mercy' and 'leniency' from the court and he thinks he can charm his way into getting it. He's flirting. Darrell Brooks

  • Idk74572835 Idk (@Idk74572835) reported

    @TeamYouTube @YouTube Actually take this tweet into consideration and pass this up to the YouTube policy team: Make your entire copyright system more safe for creators. Because right now, I’m afraid to post because of the rampant DMCA abuse on your platform. Fix the system.

  • WizzoxD Wizzo (@WizzoxD) reported

    If that video is age restricted, then so should every God of War, Call of Duty, etc video on @YouTube. There are FAR worse videos on that platform that do just fine. Can anyone at @YouTubeCreators help me?

  • Mozaner1 Mozaner (@Mozaner1) reported

    @YouTube Every single time I have an issue I'm forced to ignore YT which was the most visual out of every sort of problem-solving. But sMoRt big heads at YT know bEtTaR. I know this is an ego problem because the solution is so good for everyone and so obvious.

  • FTeejhay Teejhay2000YT (@FTeejhay) reported

    @ThisIsWildGoat @YouTube No problem

  • supermilotic WestEndGirl (@supermilotic) reported

    @LaelMichelle1 @YouTube Most people have issues with women. I don’t think Dave means anyone harm.

  • EventlessRobin saintshumblelove (@EventlessRobin) reported

    @ThothAflame @YouTube That’s not how it works. You are mentally ill if you are threatening people, and should be 51/50’d. ...thoughts ringing with thoughts of murder. You’re the only one playing a game everyone else says “Wow this guy really needs help,” while he is playing it ALONE

  • virgnehme DVE #EndProjectNimbus (@virgnehme) reported

    @MichaelRapaport @YouTube You can't tell who is or isn't Jewish because we are talking about a religion, not a race or ethnicity, right Michael? That's why many of us don't get the argument that supports the establishment of an apartheid state for a Jewish race/people. Help us understand

  • BatteryProfit LithiumBull (@BatteryProfit) reported

    @quakes99 @enCoreEnergy_EU @YouTube John, because of the financing and work that's needed on the Alta Mesa..is it safe to say that this can drop to $1.50

  • FrStephenImb The Protest Priest (@FrStephenImb) reported

    @JuliusMaresh @YouTube I am well aware and accept it as true since the evidence is so clear before us. But many do not ask the right questions. How could this have happened with every priest celebrating the TLM? I thought the TLM was the solution to all our problems.

    It's so frustrating that @YouTube deleted my channel I had for about 10 years for spam/scam and I was only using it to watch videos, never posted anything and I left a couple of comments in my life. @TeamYouTube please fix your robots. #YouTube #YouTuber
