Shut down by IG
-
I think IG is more about interaction, Youtube is more about sit and watch “passively”. Even if you have a public profile on IG, I think it is still a little more private, quicker, lighter.

Papillon, initially, IG would remove per post, if they caught/identified the song. But this time they disabled my account entirely. I had already heard of this happening to others, a lot of yogis, then latinpoler. But honestly, in my stupidity, I just didn’t think it would happen to me. My account was not fancy or fabulous, just really special to me, lol. I struggle a lot, so everything was progress for me. I’m finally learning to flow more and have more tricks up my sleeve so I’ve been feeling the need to want to dance longer. I will just put them here. I have my Halloween run through performance, that I created myself and was really proud of. As for YouTube, I have no idea how to work it, it seems really complicated, lol. Who knows, it could have been a glitch as tropical stated, I just don’t really know. I do have a lot of my posts saved, but to just load them all up, I don’t know how I feel about doing that, sighs, I just feel pretty sad, I’m sure i’ll get over it soon like latinpoler 🙂 Thanks for letting me vent,guys

I’ve had atleast two pole videos of mine taken down for music copyright issues EXCEPT I purposely used the royalty free music that comes with iMovie editing software on my Mac. I contested both take downs and they immediately put them back up. But it is exhausting that it keeps happening. I’m so sorry to hear your entire account was shut down! I’d be lost so I think I better back my acct up somehow!

Rachel I’ve heard of that! So I guess even using royalty free doesn’t mean you can’t trouble 🙁
Neesy, I can understand how sad it would be. You put time into an account, make friends and can look back at progress. I’d be sad too!
Latin, I think YT is more like TV too, my kids all use it like TV. I think we have the best of both worlds here on SV. Easy community and video upload ability!
Side note about IG. I just realized that I may have been screwing myself on my studioveena IG account!!! I had switched it to a business account over a year ago and my interactions and follows really slowed, I didn’t know what I had done to become so irrelevant. lol It wasn’t until yesterday Webby and I realized that it was probably changing from personal to business. When you are a business account IG and FB want you to PAY to be seen. On FB if you don’t pay, your followers will not see, our assumption is IG is the same ……I was just gutted. I felt like I had missed out on reaching so many people just because I said I was a business. I changed it back yesterday to personal, but I don’t know if it will help me reach my followers or new people at this point. I’m guessing I may be slotted as a business in their algorithm. IG was a big way for me to reach new members!

All of this is making me super sad. Veena – I would love to see your dances. The dance portion of pole is my favorite piece but also the piece I struggle with the most. I always admire dancers who can flow moves together and create beautiful art out of all of the pole moves they’ve mastered. I can’t do that (yet). I’m all tricks… but I’m working really hard on my dancing. I never post my freestyles because I feel kind of embarrassed at how terrible I am, but I LOVE watching other people dance.
For me it takes a lot more courage to post a dance than a trick. It’s a lot more personal. That may be another reason pole dancers are more focused on posting tricks. The whole music police thing is certainly not helping, though.
