Well, what can I say... it seems that You Tube doesn't really believe their own press.... I'd like to remind us all of YouTube's policy enforcement -- in their own words...
How do we implement YouTube's content policies?General Policy Enforcement Information
The standard of behavior we expect of YouTube users is set out in our Community Guidelines. If a user posts a video or otherwise behaves on the site contrary to these Guidelines, we will generally remove the offending material, and apply a Community Guidelines warning strike against the account of the poster. These strikes stick with the accounts belonging to that user for six months from the date they are received. If a user receives such a strike they will be notified when they next log-in to their YouTube account. For reference, copies of the notice are also sent to the user's email address and YouTube private message inbox.
The first strike on an account is considered a warning. If an account receives two strikes within a six month period, the ability to post new content to YouTube from that account will be temporarily disabled. If there are no further issues, full privileges will be restored automatically after a period. If an account receives a third Community Guidelines strike within six months (before the first strike has expired) the account will be terminated. (Oh REALLY!? Do tell!)
When a user has posting privileges temporarily disabled on one account, for the duration of the suspension that user is also prohibited from posting material to YouTube using any other account. Attempts to circumvent this rule may result in immediate termination without warning of all accounts.
A user whose account has been terminated is prohibited from accessing, possessing or creating any other YouTube accounts.
Serious safety and privacy violations such as threats and harassment may result in immediate termination without prior warning.
In some cases a video may be removed for the safety and privacy of the user who posted the video, due to a third-party privacy complaint, court order or other unintended issues. In these instances, the user will not receive a strike and the account will not be penalized.
How do copyright strikes and community guidelines strikes interact?
YouTube enforces a policy that provides for the termination in appropriate circumstances of subscribers who are repeat infringers. This involves a copyright strike count completely separate from Community Guidelines strikes. Please note that unlike Community Guidelines strikes which expire after six months, copyright strikes do not expire. A copyright strike can only be resolved if the user submits a counter-notification and prevails in that process. Please note that there may be adverse legal consequences to filing a false counter-notification. DISCLAIMER: WE ARE NOT YOUR ATTORNEYS, AND THE INFORMATION WE PRESENT HERE IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE. WE PRESENT THIS INFORMATION FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY.
For more information on our copyright policies, please see here.
Has this always been YouTube's policy?
No, much of this is new. We are currently revamping our policy implementation for greater transparency and a better user experience. We will keep you updated as we make further changes.Last update: April 9, 2008.
Hundreds of thousands of videos are uploaded to YouTube each day and because of the enormous volume of content, YouTube says it is impossible to pre-screen each video before it is posted on the site. YouTube largely depends on users to enforce its community standards. (Hmmmm...... which users are you listening to?)
July 2008 Results:
34 Suspensions
With those 34 suspensions, 1224 videos were removed from YouTube:
(large bombs represent 25 videos, small bombs represent 1)
Good results, yes, but there are some things to be concerned about as well...
Bomber Girl is very pleased to be associated with Free Republic
and would love to hear your thoughts on the matter!
If you're new at this, we'd love to have you working with us. Here are the steps for flagging videos:
(H/T to rawcatslyentist):
#1) If you don’t have a YouTube account, go sign up for one. You don’t have to use it for anything but this.
#2) Click one of the links below, let the video start and then click the pause button on the player so you don’t have to actually watch the propaganda.
#3) Below the video, click “Flag as inappropriate.”
#4) Choose “promotes hatred or violence”
#5) Where it says “please indicate the group attacked” choose National Origin.
#6) Where it says “provide additional information.....” type or copy/paste in the below statement.
Providing services to terrorists violates executive orders 12947 and 13224.
So — you got game? If you do, freepmail StarCMC to get on the pinglist -
typically one ping per day - and start flagging! And THANK YOU!
Oh my! I hope they have enough of those to go around.

Mornin' Fellow Verminators,
Since we have been so successful at removing terrorist propaganda from YouTube, the islamo-fascists are trying some new techniques to avoid suspension. In some cases they are uploading one video to an account in hopes we will pass it over. What do you all think? Should we leave them alone? I didn't think so!
One of our SMACKDOWN partners has been collecting these little gnats and sent us this handy list the other night. I thought it might make a great weekend SMACKDOWN extermination project. Each one of the following users has one video uploaded to their account. When you flag them, you might mention to YouTube that these accounts have uploaded only one video to avoid being suspended for promoting hatred and violence.
P.S. Here are some instructions on how to SMACKDOWN terrorist videos.
The Super Stubborn ListThis list will remain up until these videos are down. For whatever reason these particular videos have staying power. No matter how often they are flagged, they just stay up. So I figured we could flag them several times each -- not every day by each person, but each of us maybe once a week -- and maybe YouTube will get the point.... I will add a new "stubborn" video to replace each one we get removed!! We'll keep 5 or 6 on the list.

Mornin' Ladies & Gents,
Got another list of islamo-fascists with only one video to continue our weekend SMACKDOWN extermination project.
Each one of the following users has one video uploaded to their account. Flag one, flag all nineteen, but be sure to wash your hands when done. No telling what kind of diseases these bugs are carrying. If you missed out on yesterdays list, or just loved squashing these little guys, here is a link to yesterday's post: hirabist gnats to SMACKDOWN.
P.S. Here are some instructions on how to SMACKDOWN terrorist videos.

#111 & 112 flagged...:-)
Got this message on 5. (iuiu55027). “This user doesn’t have any videos at this time!” Guess he removed it...:-)
Just found out a limitation on posting gnats this way. Was a lot easier than doing individual links, but it does not show that the video was removed for TOS violations.
We checked the google cache and found that his video has been removed. So, call that one gnat smashed!
In the future if we go after the gnats again, we will post the actual videos... Sorry!
REAL LATE ping for Saturday and Sunday. Kids and grandkids (14 total) since Friday night, building a deck. Just now getting some free time to think and check FR. Hope everyone has been keeping up without the ping.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATION:
The DNC apparently thinks that it's a great idea to politicize the deaths
of our brave ones and have decided to use video very similar to that which
we are battling on YouTube every day in an anti-McCain ad.
Regardless of your view of John McCain, using the deaths of our soldiers
in a political ad is morally reprehensible. If you have the time, please
see this thread and then voice your displeasure with the DNC.
Steps for flagging videos (H/T to rawcatslyentist):
#1) If you don’t have a YouTube account, go sign up for one. You don’t have to use it for anything but this.
#2) Click one of the links below, let the video start and then click the pause button on the player so you don’t have to actually watch the propaganda.
#3) Below the video, click “Flag as inappropriate.”
#4) Choose “promotes hatred or violence”
#5) Where it says “please indicate the group attacked” choose National Origin.
#6) Where it says “provide additional information.....” type or copy/paste in the below statement.
Providing services to terrorists violates executive orders 12947 and 13224.
So — you got game? If you do, here’s your first list — a couple of the videos have already been Smacked Down! WOOHOOO!! Let’s get the rest!
