I'm banned as well. I'm not sure why, probably some asinine comment I posted while drunk.
That is all fine and good. But to ban an individual because they're having a bad day. Yeah, that isn't wisdom, that is dumbassery. Every person on Earth has a bad day once in a while. The fact that he even cares about any individual comment out of multi-thousands shows a pathological insanity. Again, the most profitable channels on YouTube don't focus on this nonsense. Louis may say he doesn't care about that (YouTube) but then why even post videos at all if he doesn't care? He cares on some level otherwise he wouldn't do it.

This is 100% impossible to know without context. You're assuming I made horrible mistakes. Not true.
That might be true now but not in the past. I've seen him (live) ban people for simply making a comment he thought was weird.
[Maybe it's time to accept that you made a mistake and move on. Getting, in your own words, banned and then complaining about it here isn't making your case for you. Ragging on someone because he supposedly did something after you made, to your own admission, a drunk and asinine comment isn't either.
This is true but everyone on Earth has a bad day once in a while or is just in a foul mood. That doesn't diminish the value that person has to offer in general. Again, most successful forums/public places simply ignore these outbursts and move on. Cutting one's tongue out/muting someone is a totally different matter.
No joke! Maybe time to implement the recursion plan. That is: none get to post unless you're vetted and approved like the Stackexchange castle (and sub-sites)! We will all get points! Surely this is the way to social nirvana! Don't like what you read? Ban it outright and maintain your little fort! There is no way those little miscreants (foreigners) could have anything of value! (Even though 99% of stackexchange answers are "answered" with a correct but not-accepted post). Right? Right? Keep living in your little cage.
Yeah, I wouldn't even be making this post if I had any of that. The world is turning against intelligence and those "intelligent" have to fight for visibility these days.
With that said, I'm done with this thread. It has obviously devolved and I'm not in to that. Good luck fellow miscreants, I will post again.
Louis is a good guy, and if he banned, you I'm sure it's for good reason. Something about "suffer no fools". Just like on this forum, they don't put up with too much crap before you're shown the door. And that's a good thing.
That might be true now but not in the past. I've seen him (live) ban people for simply making a comment he thought was weird.
I'm glad you quoted that because it would be otherwise lost due to my dumbass (drunk) editing, thanks! Being drunk and intelligent are not mutually exclusive. Well, maybe for some people, OK.
I appreciate the feedback but I'm not living in that world. I know who I am, what I have accomplished, the stupid things I have done, and where I'm going. I'm not a millennial dumbass. I'm a Gen-X dumbass who has experienced far more than you can imagine. I have lived in the trenches and soared to the insane heights of technology madness. I have never deserved the bans I have gotten, at all. Ever. I have only ever spoken truth and sincerity from experience.
EditL
Also, I'm not against this dialog at all. I love it. Feedback helps us grow as humans. The fact that I (hopefully) don't have to worry about being banned here is a good thing. This is dialog. The simple fact is, I don't give two shits what you post, I'm going to have a nice day fishing and you're going to continue to be a stressed out lemming doing lemming things.

This is a sane a reasonable approach! Unfortunately most of us are simply sent to a Google advertisement. Some Google adverts stilll prevail, but not the one you want. Oops, adverts work? Well, yes, they do work for increasing Google profit very well.

If the point you made in that discussion had any technical merit, I'm sure those harsh words in it would have been tolerated. But if it's just adolescent bullshit, or personal attacks, or excessive use of profanity, then, well, some channels will tolerate it, others won't ... Both are valid courses of action. Perhaps you should try writing comments that have something to contribute to the discussion, at least for a whilte, and you might be pleasantly surprised by seeing that you aren't banned during that time
This is 100% impossible to know without context. You're assuming I made horrible mistakes. Not true.You don't know the other side of the story either. Maybe he's had to deal with countless of people with similar remarks, devolving into discussions that lead nowhere.
How do you get banned from a Youtube channel? I always go to Youtube anonymously and my IP changes practically every time I reboot my router. I've never been successfully banned from anywhere.

He bans people left and right. So much so that his channel has taken a serious hit.

I have seen others who have written themselves off and one I saw in the street who was, quite literally, legless.
Even with a friend trying to help and a building to lean on, this guy simply could not get his legs to stay under his torso.

I understand that principle - and I have tried to explain it to a few people in situations I have encountered ... but I have to ask you this:
What is better for your restaurant: Having a drunk whinge and whine, annoying others trying to enjoy their meal or kicking him out so everyone else can eat in peace?

It just seems people keep their objections to themselves often, leading to no net improvement at all. If you tell people about the problem you're having, they may very well rectify it. If you just keep it to yourself, there is no chance of improvement. It doesn't help future guests either.
I've seen it often enough. You go out to correct or improve on something and then people suddenly comment they've had that problem for months or even years. If they would have come to me right away, it probably would have been fixed rather quickly. Somehow it seems to surprise people I'm not omnipotent.

Even worse, get tossed out of restaurant "A" (Louis R's) for being drunk and obnoxious, then go down the street enters restaurant "B" (EEVBlog) and then whines about being tossed out of "A". Then can't understand why nobody takes his side. Clueless.

No, it hasn't, he's doing great:

Not a single day with negative subscribers, and views have been consistent for more than a year.

Interesting how total subscribers gained spiked dramatically on 5/28/17.
It's the whole thing of being a fan and supporter then they step on your face for no reason

You are totally missing perspective here.
Yeah, this happened like 6 months to a year ago.
I won't recant anything I've stated because it's all true and I will say flat out that Rossmann is an unintelligent ass with a trigger-happy ban finger.
He is mighty happy with that ban button though.
It's the whole thing of being a fan and supporter then they step on your face for no reason, that kind of pisses you off.
OK this is where I'm delving in to dangerous territory because I'm a dumbass here as well. Come on, he doesn't even know how the most basic circuits function and can barely use an oscilloscope.
1) The ability to comprehend; to understand and profit from experience.
2) The ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skills.
3) Capacity for understanding; aptitude in grasping thruths, facts, meaning.
Yeah, when I make a comment about "Louis for President" and get banned, then I consider that "no reason" and trust me he has banned people for far less. I've watched it happen in the live feed.
God, how did I get here.
As I said, it was a long time ago. I made some cryptic notes about the incident but that's it. I never said anything about not remembering what I said.
I'm banned as well. I'm not sure why, probably some asinine comment I posted while drunk, as practically everyone does on a bad day.
NOW this is starting to seem like a personal attack.
As I said, when admins start attacking, for any reason whatsoever. That is definitely the the end.

I won't recant anything I've stated because it's all true and I will say flat out that Rossmann is an unintelligent ass with a trigger-happy ban finger. That's his right and it's my right to fight against his dumbassery, hence this thread. Which I originally intended to be against YouTube shadow banning but that is now a separate thing. I harbor no major ill will towards you (everyone has a "thing" we fight for) and I hope i can buy you a pint the next time I'm in the AU where we can really hash this Rossmann guy out in every sense because I have so many strong views.
It seems Sprok has deleted or emptied his posts. That's probably as close to an admission of bad judgement as we're going to get. Or did Louis get a moderator account on these forums?
Good luck Sprok, wherever you are. I hope life treats you well.
Sometimes the decks are purposefully stacked against you (I'm referring simply to the Admin thing). I'll buy you one too when I'm in town.

I'm 100% OK with that and you are perfectly fine in this regard, but that isn't Rossmann. Trust me. Go back and watch his live videos. He is like "What is this comment I don't understand?" Ban! For a public figure the guy is crazy but I understand I'm going against the grain at this point and that I simply shouldn't care (as I've said, I wouldn't care if I hadn't already given him support/money).
The attacks against me just because I don't like the guy are a thing though and that's why I'm not "here" any more.
I just assumed this was all a lesson on proper trolling. Ban the account and move on.
I know, right? I keep getting sucked in. The entire original post I wanted to make was about how YouTube shadow banning should not be a thing and that channels like Rossmann are using it to their advantage (ie. you're banned but continue to view because you don't know you're banned). I take full blame for derailing this thing.
Again, I won't recant anything I said about Louis
The only reason I have deleted posts was because "admin" (whoever that is, probably not Dave) was participating.
I'm not giving views and profit for things I have done if you're going to ridicule me, it's that simple.
I think you are overblowing the whole "drunk posting" thing.
Yes, I made a stupid post. It wasn't a ban-worthy post. I don't think anyone on this planet would think that except Rossmann on a bad day. I posted what I thought my comment was, it was "bad" (ie. stupid) but not anything crazy.
It is founded on the admission:I'm banned as well. I'm not sure why, probably some asinine comment I posted while drunk, as practically everyone does on a bad day.... and everything which is revealed in it.
For someone who's no longer 'here', you seem to be here quite a bit.
Again, stop digging.

The responses actually make me want to keep the thread open. I'm conflicted as I'm sure "admin" is. I can't restore what I deleted though.

The "Admin" is me, Dave.
I am not "conflicted" in any way whatsoever.
I cannot restore your posts because you edited them and not deleted them.
PS would it be bad taste to start a new topic called ' PING Louis Rossmann, you're needed in ER! ...' Only in this place could this dude be on both ends of the spectrum within posts of each other.
The responses actually make me want to keep the thread open.
You started with being hurt that someone muted. Originally we could attribute that to a heat of the moment rant. Then you said it happened 6-12 months ago, which means it was a calculated and deliberate post rather than a rage post.
vze1lryy aka Rossmann,
Keep up the good work!
Don't mind the snowflakes
On youtube comments, I used to keep them all there until around early 2016. I liked having a comments section where people could read through, learn, ask real questions, etc. this was interrupted by a bunch of trollery nonsense.
Gotta love the internet... The idio... *ahem* dude that started this thread incidentally gives a platform for his target to provide an absolutely clear, concise and, most of all, reasonable response to his attacks. Louis' response even gave me a great idea to deal with the comments on my own small channel. Thanks!
This thread was a cringe fest from the beginning - if anything, it served to sprinkle some more reason to the world (lacking so much of that lately...)
