As soon as I figure out how to restore it. Sorry, I know I said it'd be done by now, but I didn't expect to have to put up with this DNS crap and other issues that popped up.
Or it might be because Bluehost *finally* got around to that server wipe (one week after we'd asked for it) and that wiped out our DNS settings. I'm not sure which and I don't really care. In any case, we've severed our last ties with Bluehost, so this will not happen again.
No kiddin' about that "Finally!", Shadow. I am *so mad* at Bluehost for never responding to our support ticket. I submitted it early Friday morning and they *still* haven't answered it!
When it comes to controversial issues like this, one of my YouTube friends, named JuryDutySummons, is able to keep a cool head on it. And also likes to do Let's Play videos.
Here's what he said about it:
That appears to be about "H.R.3261" - According to opencongress: "This bill would establish a system for taking down websites that the Justice Department determines to be dedicated to copyright infringment."
Also
"This bill combines two separate Senate bills -- S.968 and S.978 -- into one big House bill."
So as far as it's impact on YouTube's game-casting community goes, it will have limited to no impact.
However, there is reason to be concerned that this would give the DOJ the ability to enact censorship in a limited, but real way. They would be able to demand that sites like facebook and search engines like google remove links to websites they deem are solely for the infringement of copyrights....
I believe this bill is specifically targeting thepiratebay, isohunt, and other bittorrent sites.
The panicky language on americancensorship.org is silly and over the top, but the bill is real and I do oppose it.
I went to PopVox and voiced my opposition of it. As I said to the congresspeople: "Not all BitTorrent sites are piracy sites. Some of them are legit, or at least have permission from the copyright holder. You may want to tweak this just a wee bit. There are ways of combating piracy without sacrificing free speech."

Also, one of my friends on YouTube, Idachan, had this to say:
I'm going to be really nice about this. This whole SOPA thing? You know, the SCARY bill that will destroy the Internet? Yeah, it's not gonna pass. It's going to get shot down at one point due to it being a violation of free speech. Sure, it's got the potential to pass since it's just a bill, but... to borrow a quote from a good friend of mine: "They [bills like SOPA] also get killed a lot because the question is asked 'How will this bill be enforced?' and the answer comes 'Lol I dunno!'"
I did a translation of the Japanese version for lltvg.com a couple weeks ago.
There's something that AVGN missed. There are uncensored tanuki statues in both the American and Japanese versions. Why would they need to be censored?
Because tanuki have gigantic balls.
Seriously. They have gigantic balls. That's the way tanuki are traditionally represented in Japan.
