I enjoy Google, I use Chrome G-Mail and always use Google to search.
Now that they own Youtube though they are pushing the new Google Plus on to everyone. When you refuse to use Google Plus is automatically makes another youtube profile under Google Plus with the same name. I really hate it.
I have had a youtube account for a long time and I loved the old way that it used to be. Easy to check your inbox and change the layout of the channel.
Now there is an all new layout and you have to check your notifications through Google Plus.
If any of you are appose to this I'd like to know why to.
Also if you know how to get rid of Google Plus on youtube please tell me!

My view is that it's a free service, and they even pay people to use it, so if people are going to complain that much, they could always just shut it down.

It does make me sad that Google bought YouTube. Google, for better or worse, innovates in the weirdest ways. Their engineers are permitted to do pet projects that are awesome, go type "zerg rush" into Google just as a small example. But they lack expertise in building ecosystems. This G+ and YouTube should never have been integrated, as they serve two very different purposes. However, due to their desire to build up G+ and get people using it, they decided to smash the boundaries between the two, and act like nothing happened. It's not like their fans haven't been vocal enough about it. Which brings me back to my point, Google should never have bought YouTube. Their expertise lies in making a systems run fast, and get you results. They have consistently failed at creating a social ecosystem, they don't understand what it means to build community. Just my thoughts .

I don't really mind the new commenting system, but the thing that really gets on my nerves are those people who spam those "Help Bob get the old Youtube back," with his army of tanks and whatnot.

Who cares, you don't have to use Google Plus to use YouTube, get over it and stop complaining about it.

I refuse to use Google +, it's pointless, and I hate social networking anyway (with the exception of PMC of course). If it means I can't make a YouTube account, then so be it. I was just about to show some of my MikuMikuDance and Vocaloid creations, but now you have to have Google +. You can never see the old top comments, it's always 'hey guys check this out +[name]'. or 'oh hey +[name] how have you been?'
yeah.
it sucks.
and even if I did try to disconnect, it would not let me see or post comments.
that kinda takes half the fun out of YouTube.

If you ask me, I just think that the people at Google have no idea what they are doing. With Facebook so popular, they should have realized in the first place that a new social media site was just not going to be popular; or maybe they did realize it, and that is why they have practically forced everyone to get an account (so basically, they are cheating for popularity). In addition, the user interface of Google+ is nearly twice as confusing as that of Facebook, which is quite bad.

I also would like to point out the fact that Google has owned YouTube since 2006.

Yep, I am. Really annoying. When I disconnect my account from it, I can't post comments and it pops up saying update your profile 24/7.

You don't have to switch you know. I've been using my actual Youtube username since they brought Google+ integration.

OMAIGAWD YES!! Google was just trying to be cool when they created Google+. But no one actually uses it that much! It's already been stated that they only have so many users because they were forced to get one. What I find stupid is that it creates an entire new Google+ page, even if you already have one. And they keep asking me if I want to use my real name on Youtube! Do they not REALIZE that some people actually care about maintaining privacy online?!

Well, that's my rant.

google plus is not the problem and it will not go away untill google itself dies out
the problem is that the youtube devs are utterly incapable of adding and fixxing the features required to keep the site alive/working

the abo system ahs been broken for over a year now and its only getting worse

I'm sure Google Plus will disappear someday. Nobody likes it and it's completely useless and a waste of time. It's just a matter of time before google realises that you can't just force people to use a social media website. Sure, Google plus almost has as many members as Facebook. But only a small percentage of them accually uses it.
