  • agreed.

    i would have to say, what annoys me the most would definitely be the 12 years old posting videos of them shaking their ass in their underwear... seriously, what's up with that?

  • pathetic

  • back in the days

  • the green screen thing is great =D

  • It must be hard to run this website, but these issues do persist. I wonder if we willl look back at this year on the tube, and marvel at the level of freedom that we had in the earliest days of the site. They did fix the email though.

  • totally 100% agree.

    This site was so much better before it was brought out my google.

    i used to be on youtube all the time and now i only check it for my subscribed vids and thats all.

    Good on you for making this vid and sharing your views

  • just change the name to CorpTube and its a ok

  • 4294967294 omg frigging, crap 4294967294 messages and theres nothing there. spammer.

  • same as..crazy huh!

  • Good vid, Myles. I hope YouTube listens to you.

  • nah, only to Renetto :(

  • Dark, actually, for the people who are creating content, we 'are' paying, based on our time, software purchased, computer upgrades, and efforts to put decent content on to YouTube. As stated in AntiSyn's response, there is an agreement in place. We post content, and in return, we get bandwidth, so the 1.6 billion dollar boys can sell ads. So, if they can't fix these problems, the content providers will leave.

  • You tube used to be a good site. A fine "community" as you put it.

    But, I'm afraid there's just too much variety to complain and the head honchos at Youtube not to take action, what with things like google video coming up and whatnot. If they want to corner the market here, then they need to get on the ball, and quickly. I would call for a massive site overhaul myself... oh, if only that were the least of my worries...

  • woah, hold the fucking camera further away from your face.

  • No, but what's the matter with hoping for change?

  • I know this may be a silly question..but how do they cheat? and are they cheating to get bigger numbers? sincere..D

  • Musician accounts are available right? So i think they do have their own chart...like top comedians, and top directors?

  • I'm an older person who doesn't do much here at YouTube except watch the occasional video, but I really like this one and I've learned a lot just reading the responses.

    and yes, I hate the 500 character count myself.

    good vlog. thanks

    nienna from oregon

  • I hate the Comment Limit, that sucks.

    the 500 Server Error:(

  • Since ive made this video...errors seem to be more frequent!

  • video thumbnails are not working for 25% of my vids

  • That happened with me too! It sucks!

  • Why do big corporations always scare everyone? Don't be so f*cking scared.

  • Scared? haha. What made you think that? I just think its a shame!

  • Don't be scared, start your own big corporation and start scaring the spineless libs on youtube.

  • LOL! You start it and ill follow :p

  • Paris Hilton has a youtube account :(((

  • Yeah, i saw that as a trivial issue like Lonelygirl15

  • Get a separate site for the leftist activists..its getting annoying...for the last time WE ALL know what you stand for (pro-environment, "terrorist apologist", anti-corporation) & you hate bush...ok we get it..now GTFO!

  • haha yeah! There should be a political section of the site!

    lolz

  • 165billion dollar! I forgot that. Yeah! Google better not turn this into what google video always was! That sucked!

  • Haha thanks. appriciate it. I just wish even more people chipped in...but seems like they'd rather talking about Boh3m3 pumping up his air bed. lol

  • Exactly. The help support is probably one of the most concerning issues, because it wont be long until users feel so in the dark, that they do leave.

  • 500 Internal Server Error

    500 Internal Server Error

    500 Internal Server Error

  • i don't think thats a solution? cause itll just mean videos are floating...no way of mediating and spreading it around. Which I'm surely people want to do..."Broadcast yourself"

  • Error 505! Getting so many now! This is getting rediculous!

  • sorry, i mean "500 Internal Server Error" - but what does that matter...what matter's is it's screwing up!

  • 500 Internal Server Error

    Send all your emails to Renetto! They listen to him!

  • I want renetto's video response to this but i very rarely doubt thats gonna happen!

  • This is a fun error.  Go to your profile and edit your Date-Of-Birth so it's nothing. Then hit the Update button. Voila! Instant 505 error. It never works!

  • lol, 500, whatever.

  • Haha I made the same mistake! It's 404 you and I were getting confused with! But what's the difference! They both suck!

  • It only works if you also change something else on the profile list at the same time !, at least that is what I did and it worked, but after doing this, if you then want to watch a flagged video, it will ask for your date of birth before it will let you watch it !, if you enter it and you are old enough, it will then enter what you entered, back on to your profile !, cat and mouse ! lol

  • My comment above was to: SanityCheck1 !

  • I sent him an email, but we'll see...

  • YouTube could be a real community full of creative, caring, talented people who post quality content to conect with, inform, entertain and inspire folks but instead it's a breeding ground for the cruel, the immature and the perverted. I truly hope they'll do something soon, I hate to see all this wasted potential. Good luck and blessings, Prana

  • And yes, it is about "Potential!"

  • I agree. YouTube doesn't live up to it's potential, which is to be a really excellent community of creative, funny, people who post quality content to connect with, entertain, inform and inspire each other. Sadly it's a breeding ground for the immature, the cruel and the perverted. I hope they do something soon. Good luck and blessings, Prana

  • Thanks for the input..its all about perserverence, and if people want youtube to stay good, they have to chip in and make sure we are heard, before it is too late!

  • Good work. GREAT idea. Keep it up!

  • Thanks. appriciate it. Just need all the support possible so youtube listen.

  • Good list!

  • Nothing to add?

  • That was pretty much what I thought sucked about YouTube. I would suggest YouTube allow viewers to download the video if they wanted (instead of going around the system) and the banning of certain Tubers (like warren2) has to stop. But you covered everthing else.

  • chad and steve should make a videoresponse to your video.

  • I can't see it happening. lol. But yes they should.

  • pooo.

  • Hm yeh, i sort of see where your coming from, but dont know how to make a constructive response to that :P

  • yeah i didn't have anything new to say....so i figured a random sound was appropriate.

  • YouTube has become noticably shabbier since the Google buyout. I just posted two comments, then got the "You have recently posted several comments. Please wait some time before posting" bullshit message. TWO! I posted two!!! How is that several? Then I had to wait like 15 minutes before I could post another. Other crapiness would be the flashing "You're the 1,000,000th visitor, claim your free laptop" ad. I've been the millionth vistor on probably every 5th page I go to on here.

  • The claim your free laptop advert is something I have never seen myelf, but everyone I have seen mention it so far, lives in Canada !, I heard about it today, after watching the video below:

    http://www.youtube.COM/watch?v­=xTUYVcOA9rs

  • MYLES!!! I LOVE YOU!!! I LOVE THIS VID!! its all like up in your pretty face.. im NOT a stalker. promise! haha. way to go Myles!!!

  • hehe okay ill take your word for it..but yes..."stalkers" are another problem on youtube.

  • Wow, I didn't realize how pretty your eyes were until just now.

    I totally agree with you on all that stuff your read off.

    *JessicA*

  • Haha thanks. well im glad you took on what I said as well :p

  • Youtube sux!

  • I definitely feel where you are coming from. I do think that they are becoming more corporatized but I think that can be as good as it is bad. There will definitely be some transition since google bought the company, but I think after some brief birth pains it will turn out alright.

    I guess I am just a little more optimistic.

  • I actually see a lot of truth to what you say..in terms of the fact I believe you are right and purhaps things will get better very soon.

  • let's hope so! But then I'm worried there will be a severe crackdown on copyright so we wont get away with using small clips of music in our films- I think it's fair that purely copied clips from TV shows etc arn't shown, but it restricts the little people if we can't use music sources to compliment our videos-after all, it's just good exposure :(

  • I completely agree with your concern. That is something worth worrying about.

  • That's something i discussed higher up in this comment list. I think if we credit music it should be fine...but then again youtube cant write laws totally. but they can turn a blind eye I guess. If stuff is purely copied then ban it! cause that's what seems to get all the glory on youtube n e way!

  • cool.... however as you say yourself, it is just going to get bigger and bigger... i suspect the only way it may succeed is if we punters take interest and use the site as you have from the beginning... taking interest in us little people leaving the big companies to tv and cable and crap like that... have faith

  • Yeh I'm hoping to get video responses from the big youtubers, but so farno luck except for Juan (perico) :)

  • This seems right up Boh3m3's alley:) Did you message him about your vid?

  • Hehe...awww thanks :)

  • You mean get rid of it?

  • I totally agree with you! :)

  • And what things annoy you? Will i see a video response? (plz plz plz :P )

  • I agree.

  • Oh - video views have jumped again - I see what you mean about the lag!

  • Haha. yep :)

  • Actually, your view counter hasn't been going up properly either - had you noticed?

  • Yeah. It makes this video ironic :) right?

  • Get rid of the racists.

  • I guess thats another issue...people who generally break the rules. I never knew racism was that much of an issue on youtube...well I guess its just like there are racists in society heh. But yeh, definatly. Bigger crack down on people who are racist etc. right?

  • well there's an organised bunch of racists on youtube.  Over the last 24 hours they have been attempting to initimidate me etc because I've been pretty vocal about them. IMO they are using youtube as a recruiting ground.

  • You are actually kiddin me? really?!?

  • Sadly, im not kidding.. http://www.youtube.COM/watch?v­=phFOU2zDiFI

  • What are the 2 sides? Could you explain em. its definatly a shame...there has to be a line drawn though, cause freedom of speech has to be considered (not saying thats acceptable).

  • Well I hear what you are saying about freedom of speech but youtube is private property so it's up to them what's shown here, which can apply to anything, be it political ads, virals, bigotry, porn, etc.

  • But surely it has to conform to the laws of the US?

  • It is conforming. Freedom of speech does not apply to contributors to private media, only to youtube itself since you are entering into a "contract" signing away your rights (terms and conditions).

  • Are you serious? That sucks!

  • i actually feel that allowing "nazis" or whatevers to run-on for a while turned out to be rather beautiful

    -youtubes ability to lovingly pull his head out of his bum consistently may have been a very unique experience for some

  • run-on? they never stop, man. I was a fool to even begin arguing with that fool.

  • "they" had fallen on their own sword a few days before you twisted the crap out of it

    -many of the posts were "us" about how to expand on the wins of an evolving society -and isle politics

    -i think the lid is on, for now?

  • Bizaa! Youtube are rubbish with helping!

  • I guess so, but others would perceive it as "oh not another lonelygirl15 bitching again!"

  • I always get an error message when I try to reply directly to messages in my inbox. It sends a reply anyway, but tells me it hasn't. That is extremely annoying! When you email for help you just get a standard FAQ response. And videos/comments appearing one minute and not the next. Yeh, lots of irritating things they should work on instead of arguing over whether to use 'fewer' or 'next' and alternating them!

  • Exactly. The FAQ thing is just Youtube trying to make you lose patience so they dont have to deal with it! How unprofessional!

  • Yeah me too with the error messages.."a team of trained monkeys" tag line is just not funny the 80th time....D

  • Nah, cause its now serious! Monkeys are being wrongly exploited! Something must be done!

  • You says: "Bad help support when emailed!"

    Cornetto says: Yer damn right! I used their contact form twice. Twice I get the default FAQ as a reply. In that mail it says to reply to get a real answer. I send a reply. I get another damn FAQ! Yesterday I mailed again, waiting for their standard FAQ so I can reply to get another standard FAQ. And I can't complain to them about it, because I'll just get another FAQ! Well, FAQ2!

  • Exactly! I had that as well! You just keep getting sent FAQ! Its what I definatly didnt want from the beginning, because if it was in the FAQ, the chances are I would not have spent my time emailing them!

  • Hallelujah, they answered my question. From October 14th! Way to go!

  • At least u get a reply, hahaha...i get no reply at all. Ponders that thought for a moment...hmmmmm

  • Lol! The reply's are just the FAQs, which is just spam!

  • Lonelygirl15 i was going to mention in my video..but thought it would of been too trivial.

  • ... Okay the feature attempt was artificial, but what if it wasn't. It wouldn't come across to the editors as any different...and they refused to even comment on those suggestions. They couldnt care less what people think!

  • Yeah that's true, on my next main vlog (episode 2) i'm going to talk specifically about featuring because I organised this attempt to get me featured...i had many comments...25+ favs...n 7+ mails sent to editors from my viewers saying it should get featured..but no.

  • I have been having a great deal of trouble with the view count. A lot of my older videos stopped counting views pretty quickly and even now they don't register views (or in some cases they might add ten views about a day after many more people than ten have watched - the comments and ratings go up but the view stays the same on a lot of them.)

  • Yes and when there is competition on the most viewed and most discussed charts...i think its important they have quicker view/com,ment refreshes. Allows us to indentify the cheaters alot quicker too which will help them crack down on it!

  • Weird thing the other day is that all the 'most viewed' channels in the comedians section turned ut to have only about four views at most. It was like they had posted the least viewed by mistake. And the most subscribed in that section is completely off. (Not to mention all the people posting TV programmes they certainly didn't make in that section!)

  • Yeah the most subscribed of the week needs a crack down. Alot of it is users going against copyright laws. They need to be strict, but not atr the same time. If i make a vlog that has someones music in it...i dont wanna have my account banned due to that.

  • The view counter seems to be broken on my latest video too. I seem to have gone up in ratings (two or three more since I last checked) but the view counter still reads 270 no matter what. Maybe it will shift eventually. Hope so.

  • Yeah it's really annoying!

  • I don't know what's going on. I think it happened on the Stephen King at You Tube video as well ironically - and on Zipster08's featured video last week, but then that one got fixed. Mine are still not fixed and it's still happening!

  • Yeh it still happens with alot of videos!

  • 500 Internal Server Error

  • Well I'm glad you don't make videos because you suck!

  • Shut up Peter!

  • Youtube aren't going to listen to you. Your pathetic!

  • Not just me, but the chances are if more people post their thoughts more change can happen!

  • "aren't"

    Nice grammar skills artard.

  • Nice spelling skills... :op hehe. I love bitching :op that's another issue on youtube!

    Ignore peterfile..he's an idiot!

  • Really is that all they have? google need to make some change!

  • Any other things you can think of that annoys you on youtube...except inny-yeck :p

    N yeh green screen is sick!

  • Sometimes when I view videos in my subscriptions page, videos disappear when I go back to the page! And then it takes like 1 hour for it to return to the correct list. :\

  • Yeah thats another thing! Its this whole lag thing...sometimes my latest subscription list reverts to how it was days ago!

  • Exactly, and i hear it wouldn't take much effort to put in a system which would allow them to stop having this happen!

  • Yeah I just feel they need to improve this site at the rate it is expanding, and evolving. It's growing at a super fast rate, and i dont think it is keeping up...do you?

  • Hehe thanks. :)

  • Innnnyy---yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eck!

  • Blasphemy!

  • Not really. Just putting up points to discuss!

  • But doesnt the comment aspect bug you at all?

  • Two things you didn't mention. It REALLY ticks me off when they strip someone of their most viewed, most discussed etc. honors just because some idiot flags the person. This has happen to more than a few really great YouTubers. Really irritating. The other thing that drives me nuts is that whenever I sign on again, it keeps listing videos I've already watched as new.

    Myles, I loved the snap of the fingers back to green screen:)

  • Well yeah that is covered by haters. The gothicreaper is a perfect example of that. I think they have solved that now but I am unsure!

  • First thought at the beginning of the video: EXTREME CLOSEUP!

    Either way: I like the list and the updates are pissing me off with the whole refresh lag and I hate the help support. I just "contacted" them the other day and got the lovely automated e-mail that had NOTHING to do with my question. I'll make my video on this tomorrow since I have a few things I'd love to add on to there.

  • Extreme closeup! haha! like renetto! I thought i'd do that to hide the greenscreen to start with.

    Look foward to seeing your video!

  • I guess I said it all in my video reply :)

    Thanks for the inviting mention! Awesome video, this is.

  • Loved ya video man, will comment, but stupid comment limits mean this is my last comment explaining this for the next 10mins! Irony!

  • Yeah that totally sux. And then your mind turns easily to other things and you forget about it. Or, that happens to me often. Ow well found out the JVC camcorder service centre is not that far away, but it isn't easy to get there. I might go there instead of whine in the shop without receit.

  • I noticed this was showing up added 3 times to your vlog in a short period of time. I don't know if that was intentional or you pounding away at the refresh to make it actually show the entry. I know mine doesn't obey the ordering.

  • Yeh it was an error...lagging when organising play list! it sux!

  • Renetto sucks the big donkey dick!

  • I can't stand Renetto either. I watched two videos, each only part way through, and that was way more than enough for me. Ditto with Mr. Pregnant.

  • Some of Paul's stuff is okay..other vids just dont appeal to me!

  • Oh yeah? Surely that's just a conspiracy?

  • man i want ur green screen!!!

  • You can use any fabric really. I just bought one off the website where I got my editing program from! Pinnacle Studios!

  • awesome! i need to buy an editing program...a better one cuz windows movie maker sux hahaha

  • I suggest Pinnacle Studios Pro 10 :o) I got a cheap copy off ebay! Highly recommend! but uses up a lot of space!

  • how much is it? like if u didn't buy it off of e-bay

  • Erm £80 I think.

  • ummm how much is that haha

  • About $110 but it may be cheaper in the states anyway....usually the case!

  • u r right dude about youtube it is falling down the drain if Youtube dose not do anything about it

  • Exactly. It's just things seem to be going backwards!

  • I think if everybody that's piss at U Tube should send a Video log with their middle finger to them...that will send them a message if they get all these middle fingers in their video but then they will bann the video.

  • Haha, well feel free to start that :p

  • green screen is awesome huh?  i love it!

  • Yeah I just need to make the quality a bit better...but then again...its good enough right!?

  • looks great to me! :D

  • It's incredible we all have the capabilities to do such things in our own homes now!

  • awesome.

  • I'm glad you like :op

  • Yer getting cuter every day!!

  • Well I'm getting rid of my flu now, so that must be helping :op

  • Make this a response to one of the other cheater/scammer/hater videos and hopefully it'll help create a video thread of complaints.

  • Yeah I'm trying to get this attatched to over videos!

  • COMMENT LIMITS, I hate them!!! but totally agree with you!

  • Oooo yeah! I forgot to have that!
