Alright guys, February 20th has finally arrived. And many of us will have to suffer the unfortunate unlinking due to the new YouTube Rule.

So here's the question, who's getting unlinked today and will it stop you from making videos?

I can say I am being unlinked, but in no way will this stop me. I make content for the viewers, not for the $$$.

I won't stop making videos, but I do partly do this for the money. The reason why is because the money I earn on PayPal, I use to buy more games from Steam. It'll be more difficult if I'm not monetized. So I'm gonna have to rely on apps to earn points to get Steam gift cards or money for PayPal, otherwise, I'll have to only play free indie games from Game Jolt and other sites, not that it's really a bad thing.

Luckily well over the requirements so I was unaffected.

I wish you all luck in reaching the new requirements.

By the way why did everyone keep their partner badges? XD

I'm also getting unlinked. Still feeling very positive, so I don't really care anymore.

Not sure, just not been updated[DOUBLEPOST=1519223054][/DOUBLEPOST]
I got unlinked but am i giving up? Hell no! Im going to keep plugging away uploading 3x a week, this may increase at some point, and continue to grow my community that i have built. It may be small but it will keep growing!
I'm the same way my man. I too have a small community and loving the interactions i've been getting. I see no reason to stop.

Yup, un-linked even though George says "they forgot" it was just a day late! Also cant get that crypto miner to work. Will it stop us? No! We started with zero support and zero promotion! we do it for fun! The sad part was, when we got recognized we thought it meant we would get promoted / supported.....this was not the case, we barely grew anymore than we did on our own natural progression. So, we will strive on, alone it seems because YT's SHI**Y algorithm apparently treats small channels equal to "spammers, bad actors and re-posters" WTF is that?

I know the feeling, it's at this point where Facebook, Google+, reddit and many others would help in getting content out there. Trust me I never thought Youtube would promote me as I was a small channel .That's my job and if that means posting my video in 20+ different places I guess I'll have to. It's a pain, trust me.

Yeah it was was quite painful. I did it when I had the chance back in gve days. I just hope YouTube regrets their decision it would make me even more mad.
