RazR Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 The new YT layout is really awful. I can view the comments but cannot make a comment myself as the comment box is unclickable for me. And...............I DON'T want a damn Google+ Account just to make one comment once in a while. WTF is wrong with you Google Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeb ★ Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 Am I the only one here who signed the petition?I agree, the layout *censored*ing sucks, the way replies look are bad, they even removed the Youtube inbox and had all the comment messages go to Google+. I hate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ömniscieɳce® Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 Am I the only one here who signed the petition? I just did. It needs a little over 500 more signatures. I'm predicting that would be full by tomorrow afternoon; seeing as how no one can't even comment on the videos now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpha Oh Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 Google is Skynet. But seriously, even though I don't comment that much the Google+ force feeding is getting ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarGreymon77 Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 The best YouTube was the original, with the 5 stars rating system. Whenever you searched for a video, you could tell whether it was worth clicking on by looking at the rating. If it was one star, you knew it was bullshit (like some bait and switch thumbnails), but if it had a high rating, you knew it was legitimate. Now you can't see the rating before you click on it.

Well there's always the like/dislike bar, but it's not as legitimate, because bias on the internet is so high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muur Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 I used to love reading the two top comments but now I don't even know what the top comments are. Or top-rated comments, should I say. Yeah seeing the top comments was great :\. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Getsuga Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 Signed it. Hate this Google+ bullshit. We shouldn't need to sign up for some other website just so we can do stuff on YouTube that we've been able to do perfectly fine for years without Google+.

Muur Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 Well it seems we can see top comments again but having to have a new tab with the video opened up to see replies is stupid. It'll give more views to videos I guess...

Poe Øhlin Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 I can't see jack . It's really frustrating. They have to stop forcing Google on everything. Google owns Youtube, it's only natural that they'll going to try and impliment some of Google, and their other properties onto their other sites. However, they do take it way too far, and this is proof of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haas3-16 Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 Tried to comment on one of Yard's videos and it's telling me I need to update my channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poe Øhlin Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 Huh, it never said that to me. I just went to comment on a video to see if it would, but it didn't. Maybe it's because before the change happened and it was like a week away, I went ahead and linked up my G+ account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punkfoot Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 Also, they have removed how many words you can use in the comments. In other words, there is no limit. People are posting entire book chapters in the comment section. Hell, i just posted an entire TV manual in the comment section of a video just because it's possible. The entire thing is flawed. This may be the best thing I've ever read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Undercard Jamoke Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 They need get rid of external links in the comments. People are linking to viruses and porn, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
