Hello? What happened to Sega Europe's Youtube Channel?
« on: March 09, 2010, 10:45:21 am »
Something really creepy just happened today.

I tried to access Sega Europe's YT account and I got the notification that it's account was suspended.

What the heck happened?

I've actually seen one of SEGA's videos a while ago that said "Copyright Claim by SEGA of America" it was quite lulzy

@Waffle

A copyright claim from Sega of America got an entire user account suspended? Damn.

@Orta

I tried asking, didn't get an answer.

What a major bummer. A lot of Sega fansites count on that YT page.


Update: I got a Video removed due to user rules violation or something like that.

Wanna bet that the responsible for uploading the vids forgot the password and tried typing it several times till his account got suspended?

Did you ask on Twitter? They usually reply. I think they were actually offended when I once said, as joke, that Nagoshi's games are all the same because his favourite game(s) is Mario.

Youtube is just stupid sometimes.

Don't worry, their account will be back eventually.  Youtube has to sort through millions of suspended accounts everyday probably.

Update:

@Shadiwulf
Yeah, you're probably right.

But the whole thing sorta surprised me, I was used to go directly to SE's YT page and today I was startled by this.

SEGA does not want their games to sell, you should know that.

People who play Yakuza and people who play Final Fantasy are not the same (for example, Yakuza players have defined genders).

Phaggorts of Fate is meant to be a failure, though, yes.
