Hey guys i want to ask that STRIKE for bad thumb will after 6 months gone? and then you can use thumbs again or how it's it?

That's why i never use thumbnails for youtube..

Is this a new feature of Youtube? I'm pretty sure I've encountered hundreds of misleading titles/thumbnails throughout Youtube..

OK, let me explain something to you. Worst thing you can do to a viewer is being a **ck block. You show a hot chick as a bait then they watch a damn chair. Comon man. It'll piss me off.
I got almost over 100 videos with custom thumbnails to one channel, showing lots of cleavage. Guess what they come for cleavage they get the cleavage. I use the snaps from the video to make custom thumb (the most sexy ones . Have this channel up for over a year with lot of video on first page for that niche. Guess what, never got flagged. Plus people actually comment on our videos that some of them stop by just to see our thumbnails.

So, don't mislead and piss off your viewers. I think if you put one screen shot of a hot girl on a chair in the middle of the video for 1 sec and rest of the video showing just a chair. It's still misleading.

My 2 cents from YouTube experience.
Good Luck
