Good news. YouTube unblocked my video after my appeal. I simply stated that my intent was not to be graphic but to make a diary of my hunting season.
Last week I started a thread with a video review of my deer season, "2015 Deer Season Review (Video)", without incident. Yesterday I made a couple of minor edits to the video including the title only to have it removed by a YouTube moderator for violating the "Community Guidelines." (ironically the original is still unblocked)
I'm guessing they have decided it is too graphic. I don't feel the video was any more graphic than the 100's of thousands of other hunting video's on YouTube. I've appealed however I would appreciate any input from forum members on the do's and don'ts of posting hunting vids. Or if there is another way to share vids with forum members??

I see absolutely nothing "wrong" with your video.
There are a great many much more graphic on U-Tube.
Best of Luck with your Appeal!
I would be too!!

I really like the video. Too bad for them if they don't like it...
A touch of frost has heightened your awareness and your heart steadily beats in anticipation. Your senses are suddenly alert to the movement on the forest floor and you realize that the moment of truth is at hand.
For what it's worth, I really REALLY liked your video! What was the longest shot on there, do ya reckon?

One thing that you should be sure to do is ONLY allow "approved" comments. This is easy to do from your control page.
If everybody that posted videos would do this we could get rid of all the stupid, nasty, vulgar comments on Youtube.
When a comment is posted to your vid, you will receive an email asking for your approval to post the comment. You can just say yes/no....Would not be that hard for the hunting community to rid ourselves of the nonsense posted if we would all just do this.

Good advice, thanks. I haven't had an issue with neg comments because I try to keep the circle small. I wouldn't post on YouTube at all if it wasn't such a convenient way to edit/share moments.

Discussing censorship on one of most censored forums I belong to.. It isn't always about censorship, sometimes people just don't agree and have the ability and reasons to make your opinion dissappear in written form. Sucks your video got removed, I am still looking for the thread on the 355 split limb on here.. Did someone trying to hide your experience yake away from the whole factual experience? I doubt it.. It only hid if for for a while. I can't seem to open the link..

This forum is one of the leaste moderated forums ( other then free for all where you can not form a good thread ) out there.
Pydpiper if it is the thread I think you are talking about ....... it was posted by the certain person which was frequently posting non truthful statements about Excalibur products only to try and promote another bow.
His postings did quite often gave bad advice to where someone that did not know better, could get themselves hurt. I do not care what forum it is,that tpe of postings do not belong.

Sorry Tom, I didn't say moderated, I said censored. It's a joyful place where problems don't exist. I am not convinced that 1 person is responsable for the problems that have surfaced with the bows in the last few years. New guys get the sunshine treatment here, not as fact based as it once was. Excaliburs house, Excaliburs rules, I get that.

What a shame! This is the second thread in a row I started which has been high jacked by another. I joined this forum to learn from others and to share ideas I think might be interesting to some. (boy do I have a lot to learn) I, for one, stop following a thread as soon as the topic morphs into the unproductive. I just wish it happened less!!
