xQc stunned by \u2018confusing\u2019 YouTube video strike Twitch: xQcPopular Twitch streamer Felix \u2018xQc\u2019 Lengyel was left stunned after discovering that his YouTube channel had received a strike following a recent reaction upload. While fans can watch back clips and vods to gather highlights from streams they may have missed, many streamers have gone one step further \u2013 transferring parts of their Twitch broadcasts to their YouTube channel. Some broadcasters like YogCast member Sips may argue that it\u2019s not a great idea due to YouTube\u2019s monetization issues, it gives fans a bitesize way to watch one of their better games, hilarious moments, or as the opportunity to watch react to a number of videos, which is something that xQc does, but also something that he may want to keep an eye on. During his October 3 stream, the former Overwatch League professional was alerted to a potential issue when his chat filled up with DMCA and copyright spam from his audience. He immediately checked his YouTube channel and was greeted with a violation of community guidelines message due to the platform\u2019s \u2018child safety policy.\u2019 \u201cYo! Excuse me?\u201d xQc immediately called out, stunned by what he\u2019d been greeted with. The popular streamer even sought out the problematic upload, only to discover that it was a reaction video to something that already has over 40 million views. \u201cForty million views! Forty. Forty million views. I reupload the reacting with like 100k views and I get banned for it \u2013 I\u2019m confused,\u201d xQc added in the aftermath. Following the conclusion of his discovery, the French-Canadian even took to Twitter to get some more eyes on his warning from YouTube \u2013 including an explanation as to why he felt it was wrong. \u201cI believe this is a mistake and would like to have this problem resolved. Thank you,\u201d he said, concluding his brief statement about the matter. Hey @YouTube I received an official warning\/strike telling me one of my videos is breaking the guidelines but that video is me watching another video that isn’t taken down and at 40M+ views. I believe this is a mistake and would like to have this problem resolved. Thank you pic.twitter.com\/B9qdHwISbe \u2014 xQc (@xQc) October 4, 2019 Whether or not the streamer will get the issue resolved remains to be seen, but as of writing, he hasn\u2019t made any further tweets about the matter and hasn\u2019t gone live on Twitch for the day. We\u2019ll be sure to keep you updated with any information as it becomes available.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
