"There is no equal growth opportunity on YouTube or any other video-sharing site, your channel will grow if they want to," read one of the complaints on the website.
A YouTube account in the name of Nasime Sabz was deleted on Tuesday evening, Reuters reported.
YouTube spokeswoman Jessica Mason could not immediately be reached for comment on the identification by media.
The local police have not released the name or any other details of the culprit who shot herself after wounding four people no known connection to terrorism was established.
A leading American media house, citing unnamed law enforcement sources, said the suspect was 35 to 40 years old and lived in Southern California.
Last month, YouTube announced it would ban content promoting the sale of guns and gun accessories, as well as videos that teach how to make guns.
Female mass shooters are rare. A recent Washington Post analysis shows only three out of 150 US shootings with more than four victims since 1966 were done by women. In 2015, a husband and wife killed 14 people in San Bernardino, California.
