Shaunr Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 everything has been replaced with something similar but less creative. The stars have been replaced by "most liked" or "most hated" and the rating has been replaced by an thumbs up or a thumbs down. Commenting is worse because you can't tell what someone rated it and it's like an early youtube. the only thing good about it is how you can view videos in it's original quality if you want. it overall sucks though. is it just temporary?

Jay Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 You're setting yourself up for some frustration if you scroll down to the comments. The best thing you can do is just avoid them as much as possible. If it is true and they are dumbing their sh*t down, I would suggest that it is nothing short of pragmatic. How infamously ignorant and stupid are YouTube comment0rs? It would be in the developers best interests to make the interface as dumb as they are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guns N R0se Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 I like how it will play my Favorites automatically now though while in the full view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaunr Posted March 13, 2010 Author Share Posted March 13, 2010 t's not all about rating comments. i was just stating an annoying feature that had to do with comments. also, the automatically playing videos when you click on one in the recommended list is annoying. i always try to turn it off, but it always goes back on.

macorules94 Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 I hate the new Youtube Profiles. And I hate it how it automatically plays their latest video uploaded. Youtube in 2007 was the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed that it looks different on some computers for some reason, so I'll get straight to the pic-posting: New style for the comments section: http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/8478/her1.png New style for the channel options and overall video layout: http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/1567/her0.png Totally different.

CryptReaperDorian Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Yeah, Youtube in 2006-2007 was best. That was when there was a play, pause, and stop button. Also, after a video was finished it didn't go automatically playing another one. Lastly, back in 2006-2007 you were also able to back up in a video without f*cking the entire video up. Watching in different resolutions is nice, but seeing videos coming in a whole bunch of different sizes is a bit odd compared to them being the same size back in the day.

Twang of Calimari Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Yeah, Youtube in 2006-2007 was best. That was when there was a play, pause, and stop button.

However, if I really wanted to watch the next video in the playlist I would click on it instead of having it go automatically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cursed Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 I miss the old 2006/2007 Youtube as well. I don't like all the new crap they've introduced. Especially the widescreen when 80% of videos are still in 4:3. The only thing I actually like is the Higher res videos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floro Solo Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 The one thing that pisses me off the most is commerical breaks and ads! I'm on the internet for god's sake! I'm not watching tv! Google screwed up the whole site... Oh and don't get me started on the removal of audio because of "copyright infringement"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wuirt Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 The one thing that pisses me off the most is commerical breaks and ads! I'm on the internet for god's sake! I'm not watching tv! Google screwed up the whole site... YouTube is a free service with huge bills to pay -- they kinda need to make money. So unless you want to start donating to the website, my advice is to shut the f*ck up and deal with it. I don't like all the new crap they've introduced. Especially the widescreen when 80% of videos are still in 4:3 That's like saying "I don't like the 720p setting because most of the videos on YouTube aren't in 720p". The button takes up what? half an inch of your screen, if that? Most of the sh*t you guys are complaining about doesn't even warrant a complaint.

Svip Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Yeah, remember that time capsule when everything was ideal, because no one had figured out how to make YouTube actually make money or efficient, so the features and layout was tuned after a very ideal fashion that could not last for long without crashing and burning. If only these ideal worlds really did exist in an economic sound world. Eh! Also, using YouTube without flashblock is a no go. The new sh*t they are rolling out is probably just some experiment, because it is not available to me. Hopefully they will realise what a mistake they've made and go back. As for adblocker, that's if you're a f*cktard who cannot adjust your eyes accordingly. Just get flashblock and you're safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Block ain't gonna do it for me, simply because a subscription list for what to block and the ability to block ads that are not flash is for me.
