Naginata all the way. It's like someone said "let's just take all the best parts of a sword and a spear and smash them together."
Excuse me, sir, do you have a minute to talk about your lord and savior, Hannibal Barca?

I've got a good at-hand weapon. A heavy duty cast aluminum extension pole. All compacted and twist locked for storage, it's five feet tall, has a nice grip all over, and the heavy end can easily crack a skull. I'd use it middle gripped to deflect, poke and swing.

I sympathize completely. However, to use against us. Let me ask you a troll. On the one who pulled it. But here's the question: where do I think it might as well have stepped out of all people would cling to a layman.

I have my aforementioned 'zombie hammer' as well as some cricket bats and golf clubs, a mattock, some spades and an axe.

Ooooo. I got an image of a cricket bat swung edgewise at some poor sucker's head or neck or limb. Cracker bat!

I bet it would swing much faster that way.

Youtube just shit the bed, and took down teamfourstar's channel. Twitter is fucking exploding.

Who are they and is it known why they got taken down?
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

They make Dragonball Z abridged. Not sure why, as they have outright stated that Funimation (they own english rights to dbz) was not responsible for it.

For scale, it'd be like them taking down the likes of Total Biscuit or Angry Joe: one of the biggest channels out there.  This is why the DMCA fucks things up.  Gee, its not like anyone with a brain could've seen this coming when that particular piece of shit legislation got passed.  FUCKING HM.

Don't abridgers get their channels taken down, like, every other month?

It's bullshit, yeah, but it's not new bullshit. That's why they put their videos on their website.

That's the problem, though.  Abridging counts as fair use, since it is considered a parody.  The whole reason this is even a problem is because bots don't care about law and YouTube doesn't care about content creators.  They get a DMCA, they just follow it by default, I don't think there's even a single human involved in the process, and the appeals process is labyrinthine and restrictive, allowing you the space of, like, two tweets to make your case.  This is one of those cases where bots do more harm than good and YouTube's staunch "fuck the users" policy are, eventually, going to shoot it right in the brain pan.

Except TFS had no warning, and over 2 million subs.

Also, it was probably Toei. They're pretty copyright-claim-happy
