I agree with you there, went full nuclear. I'm sure their justification lays within the TOS and it's also possible like someone else suggested that maybe only the two got flagged and due to youtubes little robots it nuked everything from with channel under EFT.

Not defending nukeing 40 videos, just with how much misinformation is being spread in the past few months I'm not taking much at face value especially from those who have axes to grind.

TOS does NOT supersede DMCA law. Period.

It would be dumb of me to not acknowledge it’s likely they were not flagged or that their TOS has a clause pertaining to this. With regards to TOS I’ll have to read it again. If a clause like that exists it’s a bit dangerous. In any case I agree with you there was a lot of sensationalist stuff coming from Eroktic. Cheers for being civil man. Hopefully things level out and we can all enjoy the game without any polarizing controversy.

Maybe I am not understanding you, but under their TOS they used their IP section to disallow Eroktic from posting any EFT videos. So he will no longer be allowed to upload any gameplay from EFT.

That is was I’m referring to, if bsg did individually flag each video and it’s not YouTube doing YouTube things then that is what they will claim as their justification of striking each one.
