Stephan Deleonardi aka SteveWillDoIt of NELK Boys has had his YouTube channel banned and removed. To inform his supporters, the prankster shared a screenshot of the website’s message with them. The letter said Deleonardi had “severely or frequently violated” the platform’s community rules. While the letter did not specify which SteveWillDoIt video caused his ban, the YouTuber is well known for his over-the-top attitude and emotion in his videos.
In June 2022, SteveWillDoIt’s account was also banned.
On August 1, 2022, the designer revealed the latest ban on his Instagram page. Furthermore, his Instagram profile link to his YouTube channel now goes to a website with the message:
“This video is no longer available due to the termination of the YouTube account associated with this video.”
But it seems this isn’t the first time SteveWillDoIt’s account has been deleted from the video sharing site. In a June 2022 tweet, the developer tagged YouTube and asked why his account was removed from the service. During the latest suspension, he explained that his account had not “violated any criteria” and called on the authorities to investigate. YouTube responded by suggesting that it could fix the problem and restore its channel if it was taken down “in error”. This time, the artist could claim his account again, as the latest notice from YouTube stated that while the account was disabled to make the site a “safe environment” for all its users, SteveWillDoIt could claim his account back. According to the letter:
“If we believe that the channel is seriously violating our rules. We are removing it to protect other users of the platform. However, if you feel that we have made the wrong decision, you can file an appeal.”
Since the letter did not contain any other information about the ban, fans will have to wait for Deleonardi to provide more information about the incident.
SteveWillDo is a member of the NELK Boys, a YouTube group known for their outlandish pranks.
The author is a member of the well-known pranksters known as the NELK Boys, a Canadian YouTube channel that posts challenge videos, vlogs, pranks and more. The group’s account was completely demonetized for hosting student parties during the outbreak, causing fans to violate COVID-19 guidelines. But according to Kyle Forgeard, the leader of the group, their earnings from YouTube were already modest and didn’t bother them much. According to The New York Times, he stated:
“We were cursing every video, doing things that might be questionable or illegal, making references to sex or whatever, so we weren’t making any money on YouTube at all.”
He continued:
“It used to mean ‘fierce fun’, but today it means ‘do your best in every activity you undertake.’ If you’re in the gym, you have to give it your all.”
Most of the group’s money is generated through merchandise sales, advertising and sponsored collaborations. Their product line is expected to bring in about $70 million each year. In January 2022, they also launched their NFT compilation, Full Send. The collection is expected to bring in approximately $23 million for the organization.
