    YouTube New Comment System?

    I did get a box flash up about an hour ago about it, well when I say flash up it was on screen till I clicked "OK" I did not read it.

    When watching videos you can still comment but you can not reply to everyone. On the video I was watching you could only reply to about 2 people out of the page of replies.

    Maybe it has something to do with the new Google+ account which you must have to even use any of the web now. lol

    With the childish bickering on YouTube comments,its probably not worth posting anything.

    Re: YouTube New Comment System?

    I found out what you have to do to reply to anyone.

    • Click in the comment box
    • Type a + sign followed by the name of the person you want to reply to, "+Users Name"
    • Strange thing now is you can reply to anyone, even if they have not even posted or watched on the video

    Re: YouTube New Comment System?

    One of the funniest things I saw today was a comment which said "Wanna see a problem with the new comment system" repeated a few times, that it overflowed and had the 'show all' button on the comment. I clicked it and it expanded to reveal perhaps a couple hundred or thousand lines which repeated;

    "Wanna see a problem with the new comment system"
    "Wanna see a problem with the new comment system"
    "Wanna see a problem with the new comment system"
    "Wanna see a problem with the new comment system"
    "Wanna see a problem with the new comment system"
    "Wanna see a problem with the new comment system"
    "Wanna see a problem with the new comment system"
    "Wanna see a problem with the new comment system"
    "Wanna see a problem with the new comment system"

    Which was quite amusing. You can hold pagedown and get to the bottom fast but it is a strange omission since old Youtube comments had the character limit. I imagine some people might be there holding the down key for a while though, as it pushes all other comments down.

    Agree with CAT, lots of really... unhelpful... comments on there. Perhaps tying it in with your Google account might stop some people being quite so... uninformed... No guarantee since signing up is free but if the new comment system puts some people off, lets hope it's the unhelpful posts rather than the useful ones.
