They modded Smash 64 to include a ton of new characters and stages.

In addition to Nintendo reps we'd see in later Smash games (normally designed based on their appearance in the 90's), they included characters like Conker and Goemon.

What the fuck, You Tube? Its a video game. They may as well take down any other Smash Bros video, or Playstation All Stars videos.

the appeal was declined instantaneously

I hate this so much and it was the reason I left Facebook after receiving a "warning" for the first time and getting the appeal denied despite the comment being completely benign (something like "why does Brazil fucking hate Czechs so much?" under a map of Brazil's approval of each country in Europe, where their approval of Czechia was remarkably low - I appreciate it probably saw "fucking hate Czechs" and flagged it, but any remotely human reviewer should have seen the context and immediately understood, especially when running a more in depth review as part of the appeal)

All the major tech companies seem to do this and I don't know why they even bother... If you want to give the illusion you're considering the appeal, leave it at least an hour or so, but if you're auto-declining them then just don't give people the option to appeal in the first place as you'll just make them mad

Yet Youtube allows for AI-Generated pseudo-science videos to flood their platform.
