In case you haven’t seen anything about it yet, DON’T SPAM CHATS IN LIVE-STREAMS ON YOUTUBE RIGHT NOW!
This isn’t about a “don’t clog the chat” issue, but a genuine logistical issue with YouTube’s banning system.
During one of Markiplier’s live-streams this past week he had viewers use emotes (especially channel members, who have special emotes) to vote on choices in the stream, and THOUSANDS of people have had their ENTIRE account suspended because of it.
And not just their YouTube account, but their ENTIRE GOOGLE ACCOUNT. This means gmail, google docs, google slides, on top of their YouTube accounts. And it was completely without warning.
Here’s Mark’s video on the issue.
So until YouTube fixes this issue, DON’T SPAM CHATS IN YOUTUBE LIVE-STREAMS. Maybe even don’t watch any live-streams on YouTube right now to be safe, and if you do want to watch one, maybe sign out of your account and watch as a guest to not risk losing your entire google account, or watch an archived version later when the stream has ended.
FOR THE SAFETY OF YOUR ENTIRE GOOGLE ACCOUNT (Gmail, google docs, YouTube account, etc) DON’T SPAM YOUTUBE LIVESTREAM CHATS. THEIR AUTOMATIC SYSTEM IS SUSPENDING ACCOUNTS WITHOUT WARNING AND YOUTUBE ISN’T DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT RIGHT NOW.
