    This is not meant to entice donations AT ALL. We are incredibly frustrated that we will not be paid for our work over the past 2 months and the donations people have given through youtube thus far will be going directly into their pocket, not to our channel or even refunded back to you. We really just wanted to let everyone know why we may not be able to be a RUclips channel. Thank you for the view over the years. We have also had several comments telling us to upload to rumble. Those comments are being deleted but not by us. We do however already upload on rumble.

    I just challenged my donation which i apparently made through Apple Payments
    Here’s what I wrote by way of explanation for Refund request
    “I donated a Super Thanks to a RUclips channel that has been demonetized.
    The channel creators are receiving NO payments, INCLUDING Super Thanks donations, and they are urging their followers to please not donate since they won’t even get it!
    I feel this a scam by definition on RUclips’s part since they unfairly created the situation for these content creators and are not entitled to keep my donated money!”

      If they’re NOT getting monetized for few months now (since February’s pay,) RUclips STILL pushing their video’s is only working in THEIR (RUclips’s) favor.
      As the couple stated, the more views the video gets, the more $ RUclips receives.
      So they don’t mind pushing it around, even video like this one.
      The ONLY ones that are getting paid is RUclips it self; so far at least.

      The government is involved with youtube, imo, they are behind the censorship etc. I don't think contacting anyone in the government isn't going to help. With these guys who knows, maybe the government is starting to see too many people deciding to go boondocking and they would rather see them working at a job instead of making videos on youtube. So this discourages others who think of making a living on youtube by boondocking.

      To be fair people exploit the traffic and youtube probably got burned for lots of money , I know i did fake clicks in the beginning, made a click bot even had different account to do it and all for fun not any profit, before youtube was profit. You just hit refresh and you get an extra view, it was that simple to boost your view count in the begining. I always wondered why we had to jump through all these hoops so our favourite youtuber gets paid(llike, share, subscribe, ring the bell, and now comment!)_ im sure youtube is being greedy but it probably came from the fact they were trying to get rid of fake trafffic. And youtubers get their audience to engage in fake engagment all the time asking them to leave a comment, so they're doing it to themselves in a way. Asking someone to like and comment is fake engagement but everyone does it like its nothing, but anyway I sympathsize, had one of my vidoes flagged and removed for illegal content promoting some kind of criminal activity and it was just playing guitar, no vocals either so theres some collateral damage for sure.

YT channels that have links to onlyfans under the vid get demonetized & its not because its onlyfans, its because they don't allow certain links in that section, you have to post the links in a pinned comment instead & then you are good to go.

    Being a fairly new subscriber (joined in mid/late March), I want you to know that I really appreciate your channel.… I subscribed because you bring some realism (the good, the bad and the ugly) about your daily lives and life on/with RUclips. I’m a Veteran, and I try to focus on Veteran run channels, or at least those with Veterans in their families.
    Maybe you are defying the algorithmic odds by having a fairly clean/wholesome/real channel that people are catching onto… It goes against ‘the norm’ of what Google wants to promote.
    I know the demonetization stings and sucks… But look at this as a badge of honor… As you’re growing a the right way, and not succumbing to the AI overlords…

    Y'all just popped up on my feed with this video. Don't know why, but I'm glad for it. I subbed and accidentally watched another of your videos. Can't wait for you to have it all settled with RUclips and I can watch the rest of your content. Hang in there!

  • @joeoregon7074

    We watch lots of outback camping/adventure videos, and RUclips recently offered you up in our feed. Since then, we have watched a bunch of your videos. Really enjoy how down to earth you guys are. Hope this means your channel is turning a big corner once this RUclips BS is sorted out. Six years is a long time, but we hope you keep it up.

    Sorry to hear about the issues you guys are having but also happy to see how fast your channel has grown in the past couple weeks. Keep at it...I have a feeling things will settle soon and you'll get it figured out. Hopefully everyone commenting on this video will help.

    RUclips sucks. I worked on building a channel for a year and they refused to monetize me so I moved to Rumble and was monetized immediately. RUclips thinks they are so big they will never fail but they are wrong and I can't wait to see it when it happens.

    • @LisaHarvey16

  • @LeeRalph100
    @LeeRalph100 5 месяцев назад +5

    I ran into the same issue, I have been monetized for years, but was slowed down from doing videos because of work and then some health issues...when I got back on here I had wondered why nothing had came in for over a year, and found that I "no longer meet eligibility." I meet their eligibility years ago, then they changed the goal post on me with no notice.

    sorry to have this happen to you. I have a small channel as well (music related) and the same thing happened to me last year. I went through all the hoops of fire they make you go through, filed an appeal etc.... and still couldn't keep my monetization. 12 years doing youtube on and off, and the kicker is, I never did anything wrong and all the money I made went to charity. Best of luck to you both.

  • @chastinreppert7685
    @chastinreppert7685 5 месяцев назад +3

    I’m sorry you guys are going through this. Another RUclipsr (the real music observer) that I watch, went through the same thing. He got demonetized out of nowhere. He reached out to the RUclips hidden powers and eventually got it resolved (it took about two weeks). Maybe you can reach out to him on how he got it resolved.
    Btw, as many other viewers are stating, your video came up first on my feed today. I’ve never heard of you guys, nor have I ever had one of your videos pop up on my feed.
    Good luck!

  • @CanadianInPhilipipnes
    @CanadianInPhilipipnes 5 месяцев назад +2

    Wow thank you for sharing.
    Scary experience - RUclips has your email and gives zero notification or appeal.
    The bot "contact" "help" is soooo frustrating and you are caught in an endless LOOP - that is ZERO frustration and NO Customer Service.
    RUclips keeping all the money is the reason.
    The same situation happened to us BEFORE we were monitized our channel made alot of money FOR RUclips, once we were monetized, nothing changed on our channel EXCEPT all our stats dropped and the revenue fell off drastically (NOW - only $1 per day for 10+ hours each day).
    Is it a coincidence that once RUclips had to share revenue with us our channel stats/revenue dropped?

    I understand your frustration with YT. A few years ago, I had a descent channel with about 30k subs. Another person started a channel with my exact SAME channel name; just the name had a space in it. This violates YT rules but I could do NOTHING about it. Round and round with email bot and no way to get it fix cause you cant speak to anyone at YT. Finally, i gave up and just shut my channel down. They suck.

  • @TheDabernet
    @TheDabernet 5 месяцев назад +2

    Seeing that your subscriber count is growing even after the demonetizing error - Hoping things resolve favorably. I subbed when you barely cracked 10k, which was only about a month ago. + 8K in 10 days is proof you guys deserve right and fair compensation for your contribution to YT. Praying for you!

Make it known that due to the recent exposure on the popular Bob Wells CheapRVLiving channel, you got a big bump in views. That you are legitimate and they are wrong to withhold all donations and monies due you! We know you are just hanging on, hoping to get your subscriber numbers up enough to subsist on, without having to quit this lifestyle altogegether.

This should be pissing everyone off, however its also also been very well known for the past 2 years, RUclips can/will demonetize creators, once the money gets big enough for them to just keep everything.

  • @soggynomadpress
    @soggynomadpress 5 месяцев назад +7

    I am so sorry! I feel your rage. I suspect the rapid change in traffic from the Wells video did something. That is how I found your channel and I love it! Algorithms suck.
    I sold my house in Thailand, bought an RV, moved to the States and hit the road 4 years ago. This decision to change my life was based on a Shopify store that made $5k a month due to a 50k follower, very active, Facebook biz page. A few month in, one day I woke up to being tossed off Facebook. No warning. 95% of my income was just gone. Never found out why. A year + later I got back on with a personal account and after months of back and forth they admitted my old store was mine. Yet they still wanted more documentation. Never got my store back.
    The government has to step in and protect those us who pay social media sites thousands in ads to build up our pages, or do so with sweat equity, from being kicked to the curb by mindless algorithms. The lack of a human to work things out with and the lack of any information has to stop! Again, I am so sorry this happened to you.

But the guy that kicks his buddy in the nuts on video, is making huge money. I feel for our future

    I feel bad for you guys. I had a fairly large Boating channel and also got demonetized because of trolls and comments getting political and went out of control. I had a Twitter account that was of a political nature and because of THAT content , YT decided my Boating channel should be demonetized. Instead of letting them to continue making thousands every month on my efforts , I wiped my top 100 videos and left nearly nothing. I was earning $1500-2500 per cycle.
    It sucks man. You work so hard and then someone flips a switch and turns your lights out.
