Why do my Youtube vids keep getting flagged?

[Poker_Babe]

Almost every video of mine that has to do with anything MFC related keeps getting flagged, even though there's nothing on my videos that breaks their rules. No nudity, no copyright infringement, and nothing racist or sexist. Most resent was a video about my Free MFC Profile help blog. All that was in that video was me talking about how to navigate through the site and letting everyone know it existed, and how to find it. There was nothing inappropriate on the video, I didn't even say any cuss words.
I see lots of other videos on youtube that are about MFC, and I don't see those videos getting deleted. So what do you think I could be doing differently that keeps getting mine deleted???
Any thoughts??? It's really a pain in the ass to keep having my account deleted and starting a whole new channel over again.

because youtube is a bitch.

They keep track of hotlinks, so if you've ever embedded in into your MFC profile (generating traffic on the video there) you're a dodgy user to them. same with if you've been flagged before for nudity or copyright.

you could switch to vimeo (who are a lot more laid back on nudity) or dailymotion.
or start over and get a new youtube account and upload only videos that are very much within their rules.

Are you POSITIVE there were no subliminal dongs in the video?

 

[Poker_Babe]

LOL Absolutely, unequivocally, without a doubt.

dailymotion is just weird as youtube any video I am wearing a bra in gets labeled as explicit content. which are not when i watch the videos.

vimeo is pretty much my only option to post whatever I want but the annoying thing is that you probably have to get the pro account to see the video stats.

youtube, is on a weird clean up adult material content. because of that change they stopped adult blogs posting on blogger.

I thought only users flagged videos, not Youtube per se. At which point, either someone who dislikes you (lets be honest, even the nicest models get vehement hate from guys who they've never even spoken to!) or some do-gooder *insert whatever reason its offensive to them* flags it.

It would most likely get automatically flagged in the system if there were hits to the YouTube account coming from any site that is adult in nature.

It is definitely youtube and youtube community/viewers flagging videos related to camming and making money as a cam model.

You can post videos related to camming on youtube, but just keep in mind if your channel is flagged to much it will become deleted.

Right now as from watching my channels closely vimeo and dailymotion are standing "strong"

So basically now any video you want to upload you have to upload them every where if you have good titles and know a little bit of SEO and blogging you can have your videos hosted on sites and still be seen. Also might want to upload videos on tumblr as well.

Youtube tracks links/referrals, but it is not something that is used everywhere: it's an OK signal for detecting view-count gaming and other sorts of abuse detection, but it's a horrible signal for taking down videos for ToS violations because people are evil bastards: if referrals were taken into account and you had a video I disliked, I could simply
go around seeding this video all over the bad corners of the internet and get it taken down. Which is exactly why it is not used.

Back to the video in question, you mention that it had no issues in the content itself, but what about the description and any tags? One thing people don't realise is that the spam/abuse systems are sort of broken in that they consider the video and the video metadata (Title, description) to be the same thing, so if you have a spammy link on the description (just one link to MFC is enough), it gets the video immediately taken down for being spam.
