Is Siftbot handling this?

I'll be retiring from VS as my mission completed. Oh, and April Fools!

YouTube is enforcing a new "Strike System" for "Community Guidelines." It begins February 25, 2019.

Changes to Community Guidelines Strikes - Burning Questions

Community Guidelines have been around a while, but more violations have been identified.
https://www.youtube.com/yt/about/policies/#community-guidelines

I realize YouTube is not our only source for videos, but I figured folks need a heads up. Deleted videos or channels on YouTube will affect the content here.

Sheesh.

Happy happy Holidays, Merry Merry Christmas to VS!

I am not here any more (hoping eric357 to take the #1 spot soon, or ant... )

I am not coming back any time soon, personal reasons..

It was fun, when I was here. I apologize for being obsessed and just getting to #1. I don't deserve it any more.

But thanks, being on VS was making me very happy back in the day! Again, I apologize for being frigging maniack back then...

Thank you, people who rememeber me,

So, embedded YouTube's videos and logged in https://www.youtube.com/feed/subscriptions?flow=2 are currently showing:

"500 Internal Server Error

Sorry, something went wrong.

A team of highly trained monkeys has been dispatched to deal with this situation.
If you see them, send them this information as text (screenshots frighten them): ..."

and "Sorry - there’s a temporary issue loading your subscriptions. Please revisit this page shortly to try again."


http://reddit.com/r/youtube, http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!forum/youtube, etc. confirm it.

At least we still have other video hosts like vimeo.com. I wonder how much I missed since before 1 PM PDT.

Disregard, it was Youtube itself that was down.

https://www.cnn.com/2018/10/07/world/climate-change-new-ipcc-report-wxc/index.html

Holding global warming to a critical limit would require "rapid, far-reaching and unprecedented changes in all aspects of society."

Based on the report, we are absolutely going to hit the critical limit now. No stopping it. The best we could do, literally the best, is to prevent from going too far above it.

So, we are definitively fucked. Now we just get to compete for how bad it is going to get by the end.

In my https://videosift.com/video/MedEvac-Helicopter-Hard-Landing#comment-2129194 post, I gave WTF and NSFW commands, but didn't know the video was already NSFW. However, it didn't have WTF but Siftbot refused to add it to WTF channel.

@lucky760 and @dag, this looks like a bug.

Hi
Is it possible to publish my personal video-recommendation of the training course?

Multiple spam posts for full length movies, different user names.

I don't see mine in https://videosift.com/talk quickly.

Is anyone else noticing this too?

Would be nice if we could sift these.

For an example with my newly submitted YouTube video in https://videosift.com/video/Animaniacs-Chicken-Boo-Segments:

1. Even though VS made an embed code with my copied and pasted http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMZYxQGS-jB8aQ_A72FYCpd9nDZAc20sz URL, it didn't show the embedded video. So I had to use YouTube's shared embed code to make it show up correctly in VS.

2. *findthumb doesn't find any thumbnails as Siftbot says.

http://vine.co/v/iwKm6wppIIH as an example.

Thank you in advance.

Well, @dag... @siftbot... We've made it to a dozen years. Congratulations to us!

Internet culture has changed in the past dozen years, but it's nice to see that no matter how much things around us may change, the people of the Sift are as awesome as they ever were.

You. Complete. We.
