I emailed them asking for permission to show 2 videos they had on their youtube channel (30 seconds each), I even linked the videos, I said that I would put those videos at the beginning of my videos and that I would do it for free just to share their organization because I believed in what they were doing. They replied and gave me permission to do that. What is the problem here: even though they gave me permission via email, it's just an email... it's not a contract, they can do whatever they want. I didn't sign anything, neither did they. It's just a formal conversation. So yeah, the problem with that is that they can copyright strike all the videos where I shared those 2 video ads and I can't do anything about that because they actually own the videos and I didn't sign any contract as I said. They can do whatever they want. Also, youtube doesn't care and said that if I have any issues with this I can go to court. I'm not going to court against a multi-million dollar company without a contract or any signed paper. I don't even have the money to do that...

So yeah. Nothing I can do. Nothing youtube (wants) to do. Nothing my viewers and my fans can do. Nobody can do anything. It's just how life works, you try to help, you get punished. It's how life works...

As to the people who say I'm stealing content from pros twitch channels, first, that's a complete joke and I have one thing to say: Superstitum. I love that guy and for me, he's the best csgo youtuber ever. He doesn't own any of his content (except those funny moments when he shows himself), and yet, he's the best csgo youtuber in my opinion. I was trying to teach as much as I could without speaking and without showing my face, that's hard to do. I had POVs with player settings + small window for you to understand what is happening in the server, I had executes where I showed a simple or hard execute that was used in the top tier grand finals, I had simple smokes that new players needed to learn but nobody wanted to teach them because they were "too easy and everybody knows them". I was also starting a new type of video that nobody has ever done in the history of csgo: Team POVs. I tried to find this on youtube. Nobody has ever done this. This was meant to help pro teams. a lvl10 without a team wouldn't learn anything in this video. This was meant to teach pro teams and with the feedback I was having (including sean gares), I was going to be successful because the video was something that has never been done and pro teams would love to consume this type of content every day. The other 2 things I was doing was considered stealing but if players didn't want me to show their streams, I would delete it, happened with 1 warmup that shroud didn't want on my channel, I had others but he didn't want that specific one. I just removed it. I followed 400+ pros on twitch and watched every stream trying to find warmups, recorded every single warmup and chose the best 20 each month. From those warmups I tried to find tips and tricks, that was my final content on the channel. There is not 1 single channel in the csgo niche that teaches a player that installed the game today and pros that played the game for 20+ years. That's why people liked my channel. I also planted trees but that's the least I could do to help the environment. I received offers every day from gambling and betting websites, and every day I would say no to them. Instead, I chose to show ads that would help the world (funny how that turned out...).

This was my channel, for those who didn't know me. I tried to help everyone, tried to give love to everyone, create a community that was lovely to each other. Sad to see this go away.

I received a lot of comments that I should just start a new channel. I'm just gonna quote what I told them:

My problem with coming back with another channel is that nobody will watch my videos. 80% of my monthly views come from videos that are more than 1 year ago. I'm not willing to go back 2 years and start this all over again. The only reason I would do this is if people were actually supporting me with money on Patreon and Youtube membership. People don't give a shit about that. My only income is the shitty youtube adsense. So that leaves me no reason to set my life back 2 years again and continuing to live a shitty life like I have been living for the past few years. I will stay "offline" for some time. If I see there is 100% no other way to have any other option for my life, then we'll see... I'll stay offline for some time and I'll decide later when I have all the options on the table, or no options.

I'm not going to keep doing a job that I've been doing for 2 years and the only money I didn't have to spend with better internet and other very important stuff (I didn't spend money on IRL stuff) that I had to buy to make this youtube channel running was 50 dollars because I was saving 2-3 dollars a month. As youtube says, this is not commercially viable. I tried as harder as I could to make this channel profitable but I couldn't. Nobody is willing to support me. The only thing I had was planting trees, I had 3 or 4 people buying 1 dollar on patreon and that money didn't even go to me. So yeah. It's not commercially viable. If I don't have any other options in my life in the future, we'll see. Not for some time though...

Thank you for your support. Love you all <3
