I know it's kinda silly to complain about something so soon, but come on Google! The comment system sucks, you absolutely have to tie your account to Google+, and I keep being signed out. I hate it, it was fine before.

Well no one used Google+ so they gotta do something... 

Google+ isn't actually a bad site, it's just the fact that YouTube is forcing people to join it is what makes it bad. 

 

I agree with you to a point.

I don't think that forcing users is the correct thing to do.

Theres a possibility that because soo many people are complaining about it that they might change it.

so thats why i couldn't comment...

It's only a matter of time before the comment section disappear or even the entirety of youtube

Stupid thing is it won't let me link it to my Google+ account, it wants me to make another. Oh boy how stupid can these people get? I'm still waiting on a video site that will overshadow Youtube on day. (Never gonna happen)

Please just let me reply to comments

I really dislike Google+, and this new addition is stupid and foolish.

Man, I'm just glad that I've lost interest in AMV making and left Youtube around 2 years ago. Now I don't have to experience this bullsh!t. But wasn't it always like that, they make new stuff and force it on the users whether they like it or not. Not the correct way, but the usual way, I guess. 

 

But well, that just proves, just because these guys can make sites like google, youtube etc etc etc doesn't necessarily mean they're smart.

I don't think that forcing users is the correct thing to do.

 

It was a joke-post. 

Anyways, now I figured out the new hate for YouTube I have to say this idea is really stupid. I have a feeling they really just want people to use Google+, so that is why they are doing it, which is a terrible idea. I can see a lot of (more) hate going to Google+ because of this. They really haven't thought this through. 

No matter how much they try to shove Google+ down people's throats people are never gonna use it for social networking like they do facebook.  

Get over it. Lol.

 For those interested, there is a petition to change it back.  Whether or not it will actually happen or not, I'm not sure.

There's nothing wrong with YouTube. Everyone says something is bad with every little change. People hate change, but it grows on people. Learn to accept change. 

I take yoruself as a good member and I respect you a lot, but you're so BLIND about Youtube!

 

That's not the issue, my friend. It's not that I don't like the new updates. Last update was really good actually. But they're taking away the easy accessibility. Your comments are now received by Google+, meaning that you may have a ton of comments, but you may not be able to see them because they're all on Google+. Also, I've tried at least 20 times to comment on videos, all I get is "You have been logged out." I look at the corner where my account is and I'm still there. I spent almost 2 hours fiddling with this thing and gave up on it. I don't foresee these problems going away any time soon. I'm not one of those butthurt complainers who hates every update. I loved the previous setup, it was near perfect. I'm just upset that they ruined a good thing and I can't go one video without being signed out, having to refresh the page and then waiting for the video to load just so I can see some Kingdom Hearts videos.Wait, did you change the title of my topic?

 Well I've had no issues with singing out. I find it's perfect. Google used to have a lot of account issues between their services and while it's taken them awhile they have fixed it and perfected it. It's fantastic having everything under one account.

 I'm not blind. I see perfectly fine. YouTube is close to perfect. There are no issues with it for me. You might not like having one account for all of Google's services but that's reality, it's what Google needed to do sooner. If you don't like it, tough luck. Get over it or just don't use YouTube. It's not like you have to use Google+ if you don't want too.

Just signed it.

I'm kinda confused about the new commenting system on Youtube

It's pretty amazing. You can use hashtags now. HASHTAGS! And you can actually use links in the comments! However, my main nitpick is the removal of timestamps and such. Or so I've heard they were.

Hashtags are the worst possible thing ever. Nothing cool about unless you're a swagget.

I haven't seen anyone but said clique use 'em.

I just had to share a comment on a Youtube video with my google: this is not a happy dude right here. D:

I like it, I think it makes sense to integrate YouTube comments with Google+ comments, instead of having both separate.

( don't kill me D:)

I don't like it much: my google+ keeps embarrassing me by having every comment I've posted ever visable to my google+ friends....

oh well: progress, what can ya do?

I don't comment at all so It doesn't bother me, what bothers me is the lack of customization on our Youtube pages, I think more options are needed on our pages.

Wait, did you change the title of my topic?

Yeah, I merged it with another topic about the YouTube update and changed it to a neutral title so that both those and against are equally welcome to discuss it.

I think you can just untick the "share on Google+" box, right?
