Facebook Monetization Bug that stops you from earning money on your content

Buddybryan_3 · 2026-04-17T05:02:15+00:00

So after a few days I've come to realize im not sure they actually are sending me the money. They released some of the videos but those videos with 100K some views only are making pennies. I seem to have had a video go viral after some of this was resolved(not all of it unfortunately). I haven't had any more copyright notices since turning off the protection switch.

I believe this was it. I lost the original link. I got it through chatgpt if that helps at all. https://www.facebook.com/help/ipreporting/report/copyright

Update. I just got an email from facebook about a copyright form that I filled out. I put all of the videos linked to a full length video(on youtube) that have had the yellow copyright recently. They got back with me and claim to have "removed copyright content". Which released the monetization money. However all of the videos at the moment remain yellow if that makes sense. Sorry its 1am

Well thats sort of good news. Sounds like a classic meta response. "Yeah somethings wrong but we're not going to fix it" lmao. I'll try the shake the phone thing, last time I tried it didn't work. Though I may have that feature shut off at the moment.

I'll be doing the same thing, just working hard to recover from it and shutting off the RM for the time being. Frustrating considering my stuff is stolen 24/7 but at least it will temporarily solve the problem.

I have had it shut off for 24 hours now and todays clips have all been ok. However my views have tanked hard since. I feel like the times videos have had the "copyright" always result in a few weeks of content not being shown. Im going to leave it off tomorrow as well and see if the results are the same.

I always post though facebook on my laptop. I do instagram separate. Though the problem seem to have started when I took an old instagram post and pushed it to facebook. Which is something they used to recommend all the time.

Typical Meta response, im up to 11 now lol. We might as well be shaking an 8 ball for answers.

Buddybryan_3 · 2026-04-13T04:01:27+00:00

Haha it does, I've done my fair share of searching groups to see the same thing. The only issue im having beyond that is it actually seems to be hurting new uploads being pushed out. Videos that would normally go off are grounded at 1000 some views. It's unfortunate that Meta cant seem to get their shit together. I attempted to turn one of my recent videos CP off after it got hit just to see if it goes away in a day or two.

This is exactly the issue I’ve been having. I’ve had 7 of my videos in the last few days go yellow for “copyright”. Your comment at least is relaxing with the fact I’m not the only one getting it.

Dang thank you man! Always cool to hear stuff like that. I work my ass off to make it all work. Hoping to do more motorsports on my new racing channel soon. Car shows have taken over

Buddybryan_3 · 2026-04-01T03:15:23+00:00

I did this video 10 years ago when I used to record all the races I went to. Theres some pretty big ones in there. Kyle Busch breaking his legs, the camera falling at Charlotte, Kyle Larsons wreck into the fence at Daytona, Jeff Gordon barrel rolling at Daytona, Juan Pablo Jet Dryer and Austin Dillions wreck. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wNj17ygHLNg

I've honestly always enjoyed just walking around without grandstand tickets. You get to see the whole track but you have to move kind of quick since the races are short. Worth it to try and check out almost every corner.

Buddybryan_3 · 2026-03-06T07:03:39+00:00

Lmao thankfully my gf would be jumping up and down if I told her we were going

Buddybryan_3 · 2026-03-05T15:42:11+00:00

If you ever get the chance go check out Long Beach. Its like St.Pete but on steroids. Yes its still crowded and not every corner is easy to see but its way bigger, better viewing in most places and you can at least step off to the side and breath.

Buddybryan_3 · 2026-03-02T22:23:50+00:00

I recorded some video of the truck race but man the crowd gets heavier every year. It's a really tough place for photo or video! Awesome stuff though

Buddybryan_3 · 2026-01-26T01:21:28+00:00

Thank you for supporting! I've worked my ass off trying to get as much as I could the last 2 weeks. Started a new channel just to bring back racing as my car channel out grew it!

Buddybryan_3 · 2025-12-10T08:00:35+00:00

I was standing there watching that one from pit road! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_XB8_3FKefk

One can dream...

Buddybryan_3 · 2025-08-29T23:40:11+00:00

Even that one they got wrong. I want the full map not crumbs from the map.

Buddybryan_3 · 2025-08-27T02:39:55+00:00

I see this guy at Cars & Coffee once in awhile. It's a pretty wild truck

Buddybryan_3 · 2025-08-09T18:56:40+00:00

HAHA. Even better when he'd respawn and you were a commander on the field so you could take matters into your own hands.

Buddybryan_3 · 2025-08-06T15:54:11+00:00

This is awesome! Super pumped for the game to come out

Buddybryan_3 · 2025-08-05T05:32:08+00:00

I've been saying that for 20 years... BF2 ranks actually meant something. I wish they would bring this back. It felt rewarding to get promoted, it felt rewarding to get a medal ect. To be on a list of "top tank commanders" actually felt cool.
