What?

I gotta check this out for myself.

EDIT: Wow, looks like it's true. Wonder what happened there?

But I was watching them just this morning!

They have a history with youtube though, and it wasn't all peaches and cream.

I'm watching their embedded youtube just fine...

But yeah, account suspended. 224 fails we'll never see again.

failblog and FAILBLOG were suspended, but it would appear as though they are using the account "failvideo" now.

It's probably that they don't give credit to the original makers of the videos and that ticked people off.

That's my guess. What a shame.

Anyone notice Youtube becoming more and more strict? First the giant muting incident and now this. Tsk Tsk.

I had just recently found failblog's videos a few nights ago, so this is really really weird and bad timing on my part

Stuff embeded on their website isn't working anymore

Pretty much the same thing for me; I had just started watching a lot of their videos, then this. They were the #1 viewed channel for the week when they were suspended. http://failblog.org/2008/12/18/youtube-fail/

Site's videos still work fine for me. Maybe they're cached... hold on...

Nope. Works.

and as I said, they are using the account, failvideo now.

Nope. Works.

The only embedded ones that work were not from failblog's youtube account. It's some other account "failvideo".

Yeah, I've been trying to upload a song me and my friends made, and it refuses to let me upload, even though I am the artist. Freaking bullcrap about copyrights screwing up normal, hardworking people.
