"Hi ComSoft6128,
As you may know, our Community Guidelines describe which content we allow – and don't allow – on YouTube. Your video Amstrad CPC. 1990 - WACCI.BAS was flagged to us for review. Upon review, we've determined that it may not be suitable for all viewers and it has been placed behind an age restriction."

WTF?
I can understand some of the CPC demos or slideshows I've recorded being age restricted (I usually do it myself) but this?

Hahaha that takes the cookie 😂😂

Seriously, what?

[pelrun]

"Review" is a complete lie, it's just an automated system. I had my whole account banned a few years back when the only thing on it was a couple of videos of my 3d printer running. Only got reinstated because they wanted to push me to pay for YouTube Red (haha never happening you bastards.)

[Gryzor]

Ι lol'ed 😄😄

[pelrun]

It occurred to me that maybe the thing it's triggering on is the long period in the middle with a static text screen; they probably eliminate a large amount of low-effort spam videos with just that one test.

[Gryzor]

Yeah but the block was age related...

Another day another joke:

"Hi ComSoft6128,
As you may know, our Community Guidelines describe which content we allow – and don't allow – on YouTube. Your video Amstrad CPC. WACCI Text Scroller was flagged to us for review. Upon review, we've determined that it may not be suitable for all viewers and it has been placed behind an age restriction."

  Who could predict back in the 90's that the future would see WACCI as a corrupter of youth

This is surreal... My best guess is that some troll is reporting your videos, taking into account that the YT "algorithm" and "review" "process" is a mess.

On the other hand, age restriction doesn't really bother us, does it?

[ComSoft6128]

A Troll was my thought too and yes the age restriction is a minor issue.

[zeropolis79]

You should have seen the troll dislikes I had for my videos..


But one has to wonder why do an age restriction report on that video? Unless wireframe animation is now a corrupting influence..

[Gryzor]

Been drooling over it for the last couple of days, if I may be honest

[trocoloco]

It's hilarious that the WACCI video is under age restriction yet there are music videos  like "Becky G, Badd Bunny - Mayores" with more than 1.885 million views with very sexual connotations and lines  like "I like them bigger that don't fit in my mouth" that doesn't have age restriction. Youtube's bs is off the charts

[Gryzor]

That's some serious poetry right there, man.

[ComSoft6128]

The world is back on track......


"Dear ComSoft6128

Thank you for submitting your video appeal to YouTube. After further review, we have removed the age restriction on your video."


Till the next one......

[Bryce]

But the views on Becky G. have shot up now that the entire retro community has gone over to check it out.

Bryce.

Serious Eye-Candy but she sings in foreign

[GUNHED]

Man, they get even more crazy now!


Redently I uploaded a bunch of videos without sound, but 1/5 of them were flagged to break some music rights. But then don't have noise / music / sound at all.
