I have some really bad news...

Earlier today (or yesterday), I've discovered that YouTube had terminated my entire channel, for supposedly violating their policy on nudity and sexual content, even though throughout the 5-ish years I've been on YouTube, I've never posted anything explicit enough to violate their guidelines. I've only ever received 1 strike, and it was for accidentally including a URL to the wrong website in the description, and that was it... Something tells me that it was caused by someone who was abusing YouTube's report system and false-flagging my videos repeatedly, resulting in YouTube's automated system falsely detecting multiple violations that don't exist. Wouldn't surprise me since it's happened to me before... YouTube didn't even bother to give me a strike nor a chance to fix or remove whatever it is they claimed violated their guidelines, they just straight-up purged everything in 1 click without warning. Well, that was several years of effort and content wasted. My channel had over 2.5K subscribers, and it's not really fair to all those people who enjoy my content either... I've submitted an appeal to Google, as well as reached out to Team YouTube on Twitter, in an attempt to hopefully get my channel reinstated. If my efforts ultimately fail, well... I don't know what to do then. 

As for how this affects my Patreon, well... YouTube was my main source of promoting my Patreon-exclusive content, since I usually make YouTube-friendlier versions of my R18 MMD content (or at least tame enough that YouTube won't strike me down for it... or so I thought?) a leave a link to the uncensored versions of the videos on Patreon in the description. Now that source is gone, I'm afraid this may have a serious negative effect on my Patreon, since I can no longer bring my content to the attention of a wide enough audience as my YouTube channel could. I do still have my TikTok account, but so far it's nowhere near as big as my YouTube channel was, so unless it miraculously grows in following I can't really rely on it much.

Now this doesn't mean I'm not making any more videos, I'll still be making R18 MMD content monthly as usual, although it'll probably be less frequently than before. Also for my D-Cup Tier and Triple-D Tier Patrons I'll still be making monthly requests for them. I just wanted to let you know I'm grateful for all of you who still support me on Patreon (even in these hard/dark times), and continue to support me in the future, I couldn't thank you enough for your support. 

In the meantime, I've sent an appeal to Google Support and reached out to Team YouTube on Twitter, to which they've responded. Right now all I can do is pray and hope they'll accept my appeal and reinstate my YouTube channel, but there's a good chance they won't. So let's hope for the best, but be prepared for the worst.
