Taofledermaus WAS slandering InRange (Please read the updates at the bottom!) (Patreon)

I don't know what his motivation is, or why, but Taofeldermaus decided to accuse me (and InRange) of lying, as in leveraging the YouTube AdSense situation to "scam" you guys into supporting us while we double dipped in some weird way.

This is demonstrably false and I have posted consistent updates with our audience in regards to our actions with InRange monetization, decentralization of content distribution, the weird automatic remonetization nonsense that sometimes goes on, etc.

InRange's YT adsense is disabled, although some videos still enable.  InRange's AdSense account is CANCELLED, GONE, DESTROYED.  The revenue that any erroneous ads generate on InRangeTV will not make us money - it has no where to go!   (I've included some screen shots attached).

Note that ads & YouTube Red generated $151.00 for InRange in August (due to some videos "remonetizing"), but that we will not get that princely sum as we don't even have an AdSense account for it to get funneled to!  The other screen shot proves, again, that the videos are pro-actively demonetized by me personally.   A yellow $ = YT demonetized it, a green $ = it's monetized, a grey $ means monetization is disabled by the content creator.

Anyways, I am bringing this to you - our supporter's attention, as I don't believe in letting things like this fester.   I will approach it head on, directly, and will not stand for slander like this.

You want to say we faked a mud test?  Fine.  Whatever.

You want to say we're lying about our monetization?  That's unacceptable.

I apologize for having to bring you "politics" like this, but it's very important to me, personally, that you understand that my actions with InRange are legitimate and honest, and that we foster true trust with our supporters.

If you want to see his thread, in which he actually states "Oops, wrong channel" after making such statements, here you go:

Edited to add: He just deleted the entire thread.  Hmmmm....

PLEASE NOTE:

Edited again to add more:  He appears to have dropped this weird accusation and that's all I wanted.  I don't care what he thinks as long as he's not slinging libel around.   There's no reason to pursue this further, we don't need to ask for an apology, we just want to be left alone.

Thank you as always for your continued support!

EDITED AGAIN:

Tao (Jeff) has messaged me personally apologizing for this event and wants to chat.  I'm currently a bit busy this week but I'll speak with him next week and see if we can clarify where this came from in the first place.   Perhaps we can figure out why/what/how this came about and learn how to to a better job explaining our stance to the community as a whole as a result?

Anyways, just wanted to provide an update.

Thanks everyone, as always!
