YouTube lost media

Green Tea3

She made all her "Tales from RuneScape" videos private ;-;
They were made in 2007-2009.

At least you care...I would of never though to horde youtube videos :/.

Armake21's old videogame reviews are a good example. Many were recovered but many were not. I also recall hellsing920 and a bunch of other angry reviewers' stuff back when that was a whole thing. I just googled the usernames I remembered and I can't find any of their old stuff. Its always frustrating as well, when I look through my favorite videos playlist on Youtube and there's a lot more deleted videos than you would think each time. That shit is far from permanent, in fact I'd say media nowadays is even more vulnerable than ever due to a) storing things on servers you don't own or control and b) the false sense of security that "everything's online" when that's often far from true. Many people don't seem to realize or care how hard it can be to find things that ought to be simple, like TV shows from just 10 years ago (when the internet was already all encompassing) let alone older films.

While it's both interesting and disheartening to see recently created media go by the wayside though, I really don't think we ought to be wasting time and energy making articles and tracking down videos of some fat guy playing Nintendo. Best spend resources tracking down things that are actually relevant to culture and that people want to see.

i can think of two content creators with plenty of lost content

The first one, i forgot his username but he did hilariously lewd content
One of which was entitled "This Not A Glory Hole" which is a lewd puppet rendition of 3 little pigs but the wolf was curious about sexual pleasures (It's funnier than what i'm typing here)
but he also did raunchy video dubs of which his only existing work is this one



Another YouTuber with lost content is a unknown YouTube loony from Chicago who goes by two aliases "The Monk" and (the most infamous alias) The Angry Dummy
Most of the Monk and Angry Dummy rants are lost but what remains of his work are varying skits which is spread on YouTube via channels like Dummyisland, CreepyComedyClassics among others 
This is one of many of The Monk/Angry Dummy's existing works on YouTube
but here's a list of the others: www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUdaBl1JOl7X2gL3TOW0o7lDQ7jGY18lU 

There are dozens of Themysteriousmrenter, Nostalgia Critic, and Toddintheshadow videos that are still missing. Probably more reviewers too due to copyright claims and such.

Multiple channels I used to be subscribed to had their channels deleted, sadly since it didn't show their names, I have no idea who they were.
