It's the sad truth. RWBY videos get struck from advertising privileges for something so silly as "irregular capitalization" because R W B and Y in all caps next to each other isn't suitable. It's a useful tool elsewhere, but the algorithm applies it to RWBY too when it shouldn't.

I know YouTube listens to Gavin and Dan from the Slow Mo Guys since they're one of YouTube's biggest/most iconic channels, but Rooster Teeth, even though Gavin works there, does not get the same treatment.

Yeah, RWBY would reach more people if it was on YouTube, and YouTube is why RWBY became such a hit in the early years. People found it through there. But Rooster Teeth isn't as reliant on YouTube for growth anymore. They're a "big small company" that can make a lot of decisions for itself. And their newest one is to grow their website to the point of looking/acting like a mini-Netflix. So it's gotta have exclusive content on it.
