He is obnoxious, annoying, jump cuts every few seconds, not funny, and steals videos.
It's blatantly obvious.

No, Not attention whoreing. It just so happens that channel was up again by the time you checked.
A few hours ago if you had looks, it had been legitimately banned.
OT:
This is unfortunate... Why must such an fool persistent make 100's of 1000's of $s every year for doing almost nothing? It's not like it's an original idea or anything close.
Glad to see he's back up and running now. I never really liked his stuff, but one never wants to see a guy lose his main source of income without warning. Been there myself, bad times all around.
Granted, I really didn't think he'd be banned for long, the man probably makes Google a mint just by recycling terrible dick jokes. One does not kill one's golden goose.

Meh, I was never really fond of his stuff. His jokes were bad, and really he got his popularity off the "work" of others.
To simplify my thoughs on his channel, I'll let Pinkie Pie do the honors. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mG2I-o3yUA]

Well, having seen him, I can't say I like his videos.Bhaalspawn said:
I still don't get the "I'm glad he's gone" crap, but whatever.
Are you sure? I think he has a real job doing something video-related professionally in Hollywood. I hope he gets back though, people might be jealous of the amount of attention he got but he did it all off his own back and that commands some level of respect.Griffolion said:

Yeah, I saw that earlier today. I didn't like his videos, and just ignored him completely. To the people who really despise him, I can see where you are coming from, but really. Just ignore the things you don't like. Like Justin Bieber or whatever. Ignore, move on.
I can only imagine he was banned for not giving a shout-out/name the uploader. It's basically using someone else's content to make profit, without helping out the creators. The bad kind of piracy or whatever.
In the olden days, he would link to all videos used in the video. Now, if he even includes the links, the links lead to his own website (more money for him), where he embeds the video(s). That is just level 99 asshole, with a full set of 999% fortify dickhead armor.
The only ideal way of doing what he does, is in the style of the Vsauce leanbacks or the now renamed Stuff Kevin Likes. A playlist with an intro to each clip, then showing the originally uploaded clip. It brings attention to (sometimes otherwise unknown) channels. It's like the old ways of Youtube, in which the "featured videos" thingie actually worked.
Forget my first statement: Writing that made me enable hypocrisy mode. Good. Fucking. Riddance.

I don't watch him, nor do I watch any of his type on Ytube.
But, there are a lot of people in this thread with some serious issues. "I'm glad he's gone." "He's a piece of shit." etc. Yea, why don't you guys play some more games and take more of your meds.

I got this:
"This video has been removed as a violation of YouTube's policy against spam, scams, and commercially deceptive content.
Sorry about that."
And this:
"Everyone hates spam. Do not create misleading descriptions, tags, titles or thumbnails in order to increase views. It's not okay to post large amounts of untargeted, unwanted or repetitive content, including comments and private messages."
I think he might have just put a misleading title on it or some idiot is trying to false flag him. It's not uncommon in the atheist circles for people to false flag under the DMCA to silence someone's opinions instead of confronting the opinions with an actual argument.

To be honest, I'm one of those glad he lost his "job", if you can call it that. The main reason I have for being glad at the concept of him losing his job is because his job involved being well known and getting paid for showing other videos by people who aren't being paid and are barely creditted if at all. If it was any other medium, Ray William Johnson would of been swamped by lawsuits.Master Steeds said:
It also feels like a "comedy" (a term I use loosely due to, I will admit, general dislike of his jokes and his format of telling jokes) directed at twelve year olds. I don't mean that in an insulting way if that's to his taste, but the camera methods (e.g. jump-cutting), the jokes (e.g. joking about homosexuality in a manner that may suggest negative connotations) and the videos in questions (e.g. slapstick) all suggest an audience that is around early teens. Which is okay if that's his market, but it feels like he's not trying to be part of that market which only makes watching his material feel childish.
The summery is, he is a glorified version of a grandmother. He shares a lot of videos that aren't really that funny on their own. He has awkward jokes that may of been a bit more mature a few decades ago. He also has camera techniques that a lot of people chalk up to him doing it so if he messes up a line he can redo it without doing entire scenes again, something that may suggest an individual who is clumsy and forgetful. Which, I don't plan to pay my grandmother if she started filling my e-mail account with "funny videos".
It was coming. All he does is take other people's videos, then make idiotic remarks which are more obnoxious than funny (I haven't found any of his "jokes" funny. Ever.) and make money from them.
