@TeamYouTube @YouTubeCreators @YouTube @YouTubeGaming My channel was recently suspended from the YPP and demonetized for "Deceptive Activities". I have reached out to support twice now to escalate it, hoping for a human review. Both times, the request was rejected. I would appreciate your time to review my case and consider why I think this was a suspension made in error. From my understanding, "Deceptive Activities" can include artificially inflating views, subscribers, and other metrics. It can also include "manipulating on-platform activity". I would like to make it known that I have NEVER made an attempt to artificially inflate views and other metrics. I have never purchased view or sub bots. I have always made a genuine effort to post unique and authentic content daily. I have built a content library of almost 1,000 videos, live streams, and shorts. YouTube content creation is a passion of mine, and I take all aspects of the YPP policies seriously, and I have never received a copyright or community guidelines warning or strike. Attached is a screenshot of my metrics this year. Over the last 28 days, my channel has grown rapidly due to a livestream that got over 1.6M views, so that can explain the sudden increase in metrics in the last 28 days. Other than that, you can see that there aren't any suspicious spikes in activity that would suggest artificially manipulating metrics. My channel has grown organically since I started posting content almost one year ago. Earlier this year, I was informed that my channel had been hit with a suspicion of invalid traffic, and was later cleared as all metrics were verified as legitimate. I would like to request that this be considered during the review process, as Youtube’s own invalid traffic guidelines state that “[the] channel can be affected by invalid traffic, even if you’re not intentionally driving it. [meaning] there are times when you may not be aware that activity you’ve received was [invalid traffic]” - Jensen (Apr. 10, 2023, YT Help community). I take all YPP and youtube policies incredibly seriously and have never made an attempt to engage in deceptive activities or anything else that may violate the guidelines. I respectfully request that a human review my case and my channel, as I truly believe this was a ban made in error.
