Thinking about making a TUGS YouTube

Post by Jay »

Would anyone be interested if I made a YouTube about tugs. It would feature mostly me being tied and restrained. Also talking about other stuff you can tie people with and other positions. I would also let people pick what I wear and maybe make some of your scenarios come to life.

Excellent plan (if YouTube agrees). I'd love to see what you come up with.

Beware: The Bearers of the Torch of Purity seem to be getting a lot of stuff taken down, especially if the participants are on the young side.
They all say boxer shorts are cool,
but little Speedos always rule.

Can I get a quick rundown on who these people are? I never heard of them until now.

They would be the Puritans who decide what is Pure Enough for YouTube. Similar beings have moved in at Tumblr.

YouTube has been facing a lot of controversy surrounding some videos that are considered sexualized when YouTube is clearly not a site that is meant to do so. That being said, the problem comes in when younger people are involved and are doing things like twerking, etc. and pedophiles are generally able to use it as a medium for... who knows though I’m sure we can all guess. That being said, bondage and TUGs falls into a category that can be misconstrue as attempting to sexualize the people involved which YouTube is now trying to prevent. Hope this helps.

I see, I'm over 18 years old if that matters.

[mention]Jay[/mention] Good luck with your project! You'll certainly need it ;)
Bondage channels typically last two or three months before being deleted.
Hope you realise that what you're attempting has already been done and overdone during the past decade and a half.

What was on it? Was it very sexual or anything?

First, keep it "clean!"

Second, avoid terms like "bondage," or anything else that might be a sexual trigger.

Third, choose your title words carefully. "Training to be the next Houdini," is likely to stay up much longer than "Me getting tied up."

Gotcha, I'm going to have to bend my words a bit I see.

DallasNotAustin explained what's been going on with YouTube (and most of the other social media sites) recently. I would suggest uploading your videos to either XTube or Xvideos instead since those video sharing sites are specifically meant for erotic or adult content.

For a bit more understanding on why it might not be the best idea to upload to YouTube even though your videos won't feature anything sexual, YouTube is deleting anyone's videos (clothed or especially half clothed) that might be even vaguely erotic which may have been alright to upload a few years ago but now aren't OK...

One of the reasons is because in the past year or so advertisers have been pulling out after it was discovered YT was asleep at the wheel and were letting controversial videos stay on the site for years such as videos made by terrorist groups, pedo rings, etc. Parental groups were also upset this kind of content was on YouTube since a decent chunk of teens and even younger kids watch tons of videos there .... There's so many videos uploaded everyday it's hard to moderate everything but now they're going overboard to try to retain their advertisers who keep revenue coming in for the site.

It's understandable why YT would do this but I can't find a lot of my favorite bondage related videos that were up years ago anymore; some were clips from TV shows even which isn't risque IMO. Those duct tape challenge videos are being taking down en masse- especially if anyone one is shirtless in them. They've even been deleting wedgie videos and wrestling videos for "adult content" and banning accounts if they continue uploading (I find this odd personally since a ton of music videos, which seem to be more softcore porn than music videos, get a pass. As do violent, gory horror movie clips and trailers... but that's for another discussion)

Basically, if Disney, Ford or any other huge corporation wouldn't want to put advertisements on the video it's not going to stay on YouTube for long these days. Channels made by bondage lovers who were trying to fly under YouTube's content moderation and advertiser "friendly" radar aren't lasting long these days.... many of the one's that have public videos are now gone in fact :(

I think [mention]boundsub[/mention] has it right.
Bit of a shame, though; Xtube certainly would not have the audience that you would seem to deserve.

Blame an Xtc "ego-trip".
