X-Tube
I have been posting videos there since July 2014 after slporntube.com went away and I have tolerated their self imposed set of morals. Even though I believe my latest movie Resurrection, Intergalactic SLUTS (S1E6) will clear TOS, maybe before I post this even I want to warn fellow movie makers about this site!!
I like the way my videos look on this X-Tube, I like the quality of the videos I embed on this blog from X-Tube, but what I don't like is there list of "Banned Words"!!!
Banned Words, can you believe it on a porn site you can't say certain words, and no it's not bad words that kids aren't suppose to say like, Shit, Fuck, Whore, Cunt, it's words like Daughter, High, Mother, Father words you say probably before you are 5.
My movie: The Mile High Club on X-Tube I had to name it: The Mile Up Club because the word "High" is one of the probably 100's of banned words. Now I understand "High" can be associated with drug use and drugs are BAD (don't do drugs kids!) but that's just it were not suppose to be kids viewing that site. Even on Sesame Street, Bert can say "Look how high up in that tree Ernie is." But X-Tube has it's own set of children's words it has banned for our protection, I guess!!
Now for the most part X-Tube does a good job of flagging the words it doesn't like so that you can change all of them before hitting the Upload button. But many times if must have a list of questionable words that are used in the description that don't get flagged. I have had it before where after the video is uploaded it shows a word that is on the banned list and you have to start the uploading process all over.
But recently with my Intergalactic SLUTS series, once my movies are converted and ready to be viewed they get: Video has been reported for TOS , now I could sit and say "Fucking haters" but the movies have 0 views. Resurrection, Intergalactic SLUTS (S1E6) is stamped with Video has been reported for TOS right now and not a single view. Interrogation, Intergalactic SLUTS (S1E5) was the same way and a week later when I checked on it it was up and in public view. So I'm sure the same will happen to Resurrection and no biggie!! It has nothing wrong with it a completely original series with no possible copyright infringements.
But here is what movie makers need to do with X-Tube (other site I use don't have "Banned words"). X-Tube gives you a big box to put a description of your movie in, which is great, you would think. The more you can tell about your movie the more views you can get. BUT it's sort of like "Give them enough rope to hang themselves" thing. If you have these "Questionable words" in the description it gets tossed in to the Video has been reported for TOS pile.
So this is what I need to do and everyone uploading there should do, the minimum description is 30 characters, it probably doesn't even have to make since as long as it's not a word that could be questionable. Type in your 30 characters, your title can be anything as well and once it's accepted and converted for view, go back and edit all that. See the "Banned words" don't count after the video has been put out to the public, it's just during upload and conversion!!
I know stupid right? Almost as stupid as a porn site banning children's words!!!
Now if your Video has been reported for TOS after it has been put out to the public, I can't help you there "fucking trolls".
My last years movie Legs Wide Spread, The Motion Picture never made it to X-Tube it was uploaded and stalled, so I uploaded it again and it stalled again (meaning it is in there data base, just with no explanation why it was never put out to the public) so when I tried a 3rd time with a 3rd name and nearly no description, it must of realize I had uploaded this movie before and told me so.
The less you tell them the better!!
Happy winter holidays Em, since Christmas is starting to be politically incorrect to
ReplyDeleteI have deleted my videos on Xtube. I wanted to know why my last upload, The Business Of Women #2, got twice: Video has been reported for TOS.
ReplyDeleteI did send in a support ticket to ask what the reason is, I got this as an answer: Thank you for contacting Xtube Support.
A public profile’s videos can have no website addresses, watermarks or anything that either directs a user to another site or could be considered an advertisement in them or in their description/title as this is a violation of the User Agreement.
Thank you for understanding,
Now, I do NOT even post links in the description. I only have a little sillhouette logo in right corner for my vids, and that logo has been there for all the five vids I had on Xtube, the previous four, never got this silly thing, only the last upload has been the target.
So, I am done posting on Xtube.
One of my videos got flagged for the Club E logo that I had in the very end of the video, for fear it's a watermark, even though it's *my* logo.. and I don't use any words except just a few words I use for everything.. I just know I can't have anything other than words in my videos now, and watch my language like a good girl..
