That was only one video you can watch his others so he hasn't been banned. Which makes me happy as I do find him funny

I don't watch him as much as I used to, but I can appreciate the work he puts into a show he's been doing twice a week, every week for more than 2 damn years.

Also, that's not his "job". RayWillianJohnson stated numerous times that he does it without being funded. What he does make money is the merchandise sold with the =3 logo on it, which he is allowed to do. If he made money selling other peoples vidoes, that is different.

Someone else bought up the fact that if he did what he does in another medium, he'd get sued. You mean like a TV show? Like Tosh.0, a TV show about a guy who makes fun of viral videos? I heard that guy gets sued all the time.

ill be honest; i hate him.

has nothing special or unique to offer, all he ever does is talk and make horrible distasteful jokes, he has no substance or charisma and his voice/persona irritate the fuck out of me. he probably will come back but it would be great if didn't. (just my opinion)

It's working fine for me though... I guess only one of his vids was banned. I can still watch his channel and all videos... Maybe youtube's new layout confused you?

He's not all that funny though. He's just a time-killer for me.

HE WAS BANNED FOR CRYING OUT LOUD

He just got back online now, it must have been a issue at there end

The OP isn't lieing or stupid. It just changed. Is that clear to everyone? Gah...

I got a little tired of his dry humor and a lot of videos that he goes over on his channel are often times old news.

I'm not glad that he's been banned, especially since there are a lot of people on the channel, but I'm a bit indifferent for my lack of interest.

While the guy himself kind of annoys me with his shtick, I do find his videos useful for finding the decent viral videos on youtube. It was a good idea at first but when he started adding in stupid animations/effects and started promoting that Martian crap it got to the stage where I just skip and bits with him talking and went straight to the videos.

So...yeah, I'd be a little annoyed if he was banned. Mainly because then I'd have to hunt for the funny videos myself.

Here, this is what I get to be the most general criticisms about RayWilliamJohnson. This video is about a year old so I'm not sure if any of these still apply, I don't watch him out of principle.


This guy is well known on Youtube for busting the balls of people who whore themselves on Youtube, like Shane Dawson, iJustine, Phil Defranco, and many others.

Cheers! Admittedly the man quickly became annoying, and even worse stereotype-inforcing. So I'm happy we're rid of him, for now atleast.

it appears he has been banned, i clicked on his channel and it confirms it, see for yourself:

www.youtube.com/RayWilliamJohnson

i for one am quite surprised, i actually like his videos (Flame Shield Up) although i am pretty sure he will be back soon

what are your thoughts?

EDIT: if you don't know who he is, he was a youtuber with the most subscribers (i have 2 million and 4 million in my head, not sure which number), he made videos about viral videos and commented on them making jokes etc.

EDIT 2: lots of people seem to have a lot of hatred for a man that just makes youtube videos, why are people glad a person lost their job?
People hate on him because he doesn't really have much else going on with =3. He hasn't really done much other than just sit there and make penis joke and show kitten videos.

At least Daniel Tosh's show involves different elements with the Web Redemption.
That and Tosh's jokes aren't stale as hell.

The videos RWJ shows are funny. He used to be funny himself. Then he 'sold out' and started selling things and branching out. And when I say branching out, I mean he made a video log about him going places with female escorts to look cool. _> I still <3 Daniel Tosh. That dude spews comedy gold out on a bad day.

I don't think the banning is going to cause too much issue in the long run. He'll be back at some point. I'll just make a note to not read top rated comments on any youtube video for a few months. =P

Ray William Johnson could almost be the poster boy for "Dudebros." His dated juvenile/chauvinist homophobic humor is just so unnecessary and regressive. He's every fellow member of the male gender I despise and would dearly love to disembowel with a wooden cooking spoon.

Fucking finally... He's fucking garbage and I hope he and all of his followers will have thier computer burned down.
You can't go to a single funny video on Youtube and not see "THUMBZ UP IF RAY GOT YOU HERE" or "[insert a stupid fucking "joke" from his shit videos]".
Forcing memes (that he makes!), ALL CAPS TITLEZ WITH MISLEADING THUMNAILS!!!!111ELEVENFUCINGMILLIONZ!!!!11, Shit for jokes and LOTS of eyebrows.
I hope his fucking computer turns into a goddamn stick, so he can't do anymore videos.

Phew...

Oh please. Watch Tosh.0 and then decide who's not afraid to offend anyone.

The funny thing is, you probably believe this day and age actually IS "PC."

I really never thought of them as such a serious deal....

*reads up*

Ah so an user that goes for quantity over quality. That uses others to make himself more "famous"

Oh well I don't mind him gone. Seriously have some decent content for a video else don't make it.

There are enough youtube whores out there to replace him. And yes those in time also will find their channel closed due to whatever reason.
