As some of you may know, 3 weeks ago, the youtube account was suspended for getting 2 stikes of IP infringment in a 6 month period. Due to the nature of the OFP2 tube it was only a matter of time, and it is more the likly to happen again. However with the assistance of Codemasters we where able to get the OFP2 Tube back online.

The problem with the OFP2 tube is it hosts alot of content and most taken without permission. You can’t ask for permission because when they decline, they will look at your account and nail you when you put it up. If you don’t put it up – the OFP2 community loses out, and the media is lost to time as the next article is pushed out. So there is a double edged sword here and the key is pushing out the content, but hoping the big players dont see it.

Regardless we are now back online here is the E-mail I received. I received this message yesterday at 9 PM.
