After ten years, millions of views, over 70,000 subscribers at its height, age restrictions, demonetisations, and visibility throttling, YouTube has finally - and somewhat bizarrely seeing as how I haven't uploaded a video in over three years - terminated the Rogues Gallery Online video channel.
Considering the platform is well-known for being censorious algorithm-driven hypocrites I'm not surprised and my visual content did often walk a fine line but what I am pi**ed off about are the thousands of messages and comments from people who enjoyed it over the years which I stupidly never saved.
I'm appealing, but as I was never allowed enough reach to become really big, I don't make them any money and to be fair some of the - historically relevant - imagery could be considered arousing ( which is against the rules) i'm not holding out a lot of hope.
Good job I saw this coming and started doing a podcast instead 54000 downloads to date, so f**k em.
Stay Roguish

How many ways can you denounce your neighbour?
Is a 'Papal Bull' a type of livestock?
Was Torquemada evil or just 'over-keen'?

The answers to these questions ( and some dungeon sound effects) can be found in episode 38 of Rogues Gallery Uncovered - The Podcast of Bad Behaviour in Period Costume.
