 * Good day,
 * I would like to ask about your plugin.
    Is it possible to plugin without the 
   youtube API? Or what is the limit on api? Or what happens when I run out of daily
   limits? Next, I want to ask about the Deleted Video Alerts feature? Can you specify
   what happens with the payment of this function?
 * Can’t you just do a simple function, let the user report the broken video and
   the notification came to the e-mail?
 * Thank you very much

 * Hi,
 * The API is needed to get video metadata and status information for features like
   galleries and livestreams. You can learn more about quota here: [https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/getting-started#quota](https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/getting-started#quota)
 * If you run out, then the API returns errors.
 * For the deleted video alerts, you get notifications on the plugin’s analytics
   dashboard about these videos. We do not email users.
