YouTube ads

I use YouTube every day to play music, and I've resigned myself to the fact that there is now an obnoxious amount of ads before, after and during videos. However, recently it's ONLY been Subway ads - basically two variations of the same ad - meaning I have to listen to the SAME ad every minute or so, which equals about 40-50 times daily. WTF?

YouTube criteria for removing videos and the reviewers

A number of my Videos have been removed under the UMBRELLA grounds that they all violated the Community Guidelines – or contained inappropriate content – which is UNSPECIFIC [which guideline (?)] and VAGUE. All “Strikes” have been appealed on the basis of UNJUST CAUSES. One CASE in POINT is that of a Video entitled “Learn Japanese FAST and EASY.” What in the name of REASON can possibly be inappropriate about learning Japanese? None has been acknowledged, let alone determined. The Help Centre has failed to respond to my Enquiry Tickets. As a result, two of my Accounts have been disabled. I invite the Youtube Community to explain themselves, and confirm that the so-called ‘piss-artist’ elements amongst them do not subject people to ‘With-hunts’ whimsically. It is UNREASONABLE and UNFAIR to destroy a Video -- the production of which has cost time, nervous energy and money -- for no logical reason.

YouTube ads too loud!

I'll be listening to music on a playlist, and suddenly an ad will pop up. Sometimes at the start of a song, sometimes even in the middle. And every single time my ears are subjected to a very loud version of the latest music hits! It's like they pick the loudest part of a song and amplify it 10 times! I'll be listening to music at a loud setting, partially because my headphones are quiet, and partially because the music I was intending to listen to isn't that loud, but then the ad is so much louder I have to pull my headphones off or quickly pause the ad. I don't mind watching them, sometimes I even like it because you make them relatively short and about music I may possibly be somewhat interested in, but I don't enjoy the prospect of buying hearing aids when I'm 30! Even if I don't have my headphones in, and I'm just watching a vid in my room, the sudden sound of an ad popping up is enough to give someone a heart attack, especially at this volume!

YouTube - signing in issues

Every time I either try to change my channel art, post a comment, or even send feedback; it says I have to sign in. I'm already signed in, so why do I have to sign in a second time? When I put in my password, the sign in window closes, and it just sits there like nothing happened. And I'll do this process many times. It was quite hard to make a legitimate...

YouTube poor repairs/sold lemon car/filed small claims against

Head in the other direction! The owner and his crew sold me a bogus used car, failed to make warranty repairs under Ma ss Lemn Law, made unauthorized repairs without work orders and finally the wheel fell off.. Avoid like the plague!

Just finished with small claims suit against Lou Russo and Charlie's. Judge has taken it under advisement. In my opinion, we presented extensive documented proof of his actions towards us. Stay clear of this business.

The court ruled in Plaintiff's favor in the amount of $1600.08.

Russo had until December 15th to pay.

Russo filed appeal on Wednesday November 27th with no apparent grounds for appeal established in documentation.

We will be seeking treble damages in the amount of $4800.24 plus interest.

YouTube comments format changes

Google has f****d Youtube once again, the new format forces users to join Google+, this is just a dishonest extension strategy for a failed product. You can't reply to comments unless you are joined to google+, there is no thumbs up anymore(unless you are a part of google+), and i do miss the top comments as they gave me a giggle occasionally.

Irishladd is correct!
We can no longer make comments about a video on You Tube unless we join Google Plus... Also, he is right they keep changing things, at least once a week they change something, the latest is the screen format... I used to comment now and then but ALAS, no more... I will not join Google+ just to type a comment once in a while...
But HEY! What do we expect from the Government operated Google... Look how well the Government operated Obamacare has worked and how crippling it has been to people, financially and their health ... I guess when I think about people dying because of a government operated program and website like Obamacare, I guess You tube problems from the pitiful government owned Google is a minor topic no matter how maddening...

YouTube fraudulent evil seller. keeps your money and the merchandise!

Steviwink aka Stephaniee powell is an unethical greedy fraud seller who listed items for sale via auction on ebay and after items were won, she asked for more money after it was already paid for. Not only did she never ship the merchandise, but she tried to keep my money as well and then had the nerve to send me rude and insulting emails when she was in the wrong to begin with!. So glad I have my CC company by my side. She also continues to send harassing messages via internet because the word is out of the type of fraudulent seller she is.

Buy from this seller at your own risk! As a matter of fact, don't risk it, not worth the hassle. Go where your business is appreciated because it won't be with this person, guaranteed!

YouTube name and google+ harassment

I wish to officially file a formal complaint about a 'behavior' from Youtube(Google), and for as much people as possible to do the same, so they can ''understand''.

The harassment coming from the repeated and continual attempt from their service to push and force upon me(and other Users) the use of a ''Name'' for all service deserved by Google.
Which harassment now scaled up to a forced and obligatory subscription to the Google+ service which I refuse and will never use.
Harassment also coming from an partial interruption of my use of Youtube, every time I attempt to use the 'comment' function, which then seek to force me to select a ''Name'' and subscribe me to Google+.

This user has been inappropriate to a number of individuals. He has called people ugly, autistic, stupid, and more. On top of that, he continues to tell people to "kill themselves". YouTube should not allow this to continue. There should be severe repercussions. This could be enough to push someone over the edge. If you do not take action, someone could commit suicide as a result of cyber bullying. I expect you will do the right thing. Keep me updated, please. Thank you.

YouTube junk mail using youtube's name

I received a email that says:

"you tube administration has sent you a direct message: your video has been approved"

But when I opened the email, I found a canadian pharmacy advertisement selling viagra, cialis, etc.

I consider this to be a joke or someone playing a stupid game to see how many people will actually open up that email. I don't
Appreciate it and find it to be offensive.

The email line that says "from" just happens to have a address on it that reads:

Billy. [protected]@hst. Mizone. Ru (I have no idea who billy taylor is!)

YouTube SCAM BY DECEPTION

This personal hides behind the name of [protected]@gmail.com. Goes Under the name: Mesh Netmindz, I know there is a risk when sending your money to these people, but I did some research and had not seen any bad reviews on this person at all. Plus I was intrigue with the samples he posts on Youtube. I paid £60 to start the request, and then once I paid him the final deposit he then decided not to respond to my emails. As well as he may deceive you with youtube examples of ID, he will then tell you that the person that has the ID has been arrested. He has offered me a refund, but I doubt he would send anything. I will post the exchange or emails between us later on. Please check out this Scammer's Youtube links.

YouTube illegal account hacking

A USA Government funded organization called 'MBoned' (established 1992) have been now illegally hacking me & thousands of others for years (yes I have the proof) - I exposed them to Avaaz.org by phone, & within a very short time after Avaaz investigated MBoned, they were under a heavy hacking attack which lasted for 44 hours non-stop. I demonstrated them attacking me with a video & then uploaded it to You-tube. MBoned were behind both SOPA & ACTA (both of which have been thrown out of the high courts). You-Tube are now either removing positive comments made on my video's, or they like Face-Book are allowing MBoned to get directly to my You-Tube account. Not only this but You-tube are denying me access to reply to others comments on my uploaded video's. I'm going to expose their entire corrupt connections with each other once and for all. I've notified David Cameron (which is a Joke) which I've done for official reasons. These organizations must be stopped & put to trail.

YouTube poor maintenance

Over the course of six years, YouTube has become worse and worse. They constantly change their pages so that it's harder for users to navigate. Also, for the past few months, there are several videos that will not load. Some videos may load for a few seconds and then trick the user into thinking it's fully loaded, but it will stop at a certain point and will not load anymore. Many people have complained about this yet the people that keep YouTube running refuse to do anything about it. They are not doing their jobs properly.

YouTube racist youtube comments on a video

FCC needs to take control of YouTube promoting and permitting the idea that White-Supremacy needs to be put into action and that homophobia needs to be encouraged. Youtube comments come in the most random unrelated forms calling on White Americans to eradicate African Americans and members of the Gay community. Instead of being for entertainment and educational purposes only, it seems to also be a gathering place for those looking to form an alliance of hateful people in support of eradication of human beings not of their race or sexual preference.

Youtube is going beyond freedom of speech and seems to be looking to recruit a nation of “eradicators”. FCC, why are you not involved, why are you not making sure to prevent a tragedy from occurring due to the promoted hostility of Youtube racist. FCC, take note that the encouragement of eradication of certain groups of people is not confined in an optional place where viewers have the option to experience it, the encouragement of hatred is intentionally posted all over the YouTube sites to recruit other hateful followers. Racist and anti-gays are invading the post of those they hate intentionally to cause fear, pain and anger.

The video of the girl who had a bad riding accident has not been removed from the network, inspite of me writing to Inside Out West and Panorama, who I know get thousands of complaints of various things and I know they are busy. Written to You Tube via Facebook, but no answer. I have flagged the video as innapropriate and clicked the dislike button, so I have done all I can to get that tripe removed. I am not the You Tube police, as someone thought I was, they can watch what they want, but these videos have gone far too far and must be removed, as soon as possible.

FCC, don’t let a tragedy occur at the hands of lazy youtube and it’s failure to promote a safe environment.

YouTube refuses to act

A You Tube user is fraudulently using a picture of my daughter as their profile picture. Both my daughter and I have sent formal complaints to you tube since November 29th, and the picture remains on the channel. Someone could quite possibly look at the channel users comments about drinking and getting drunk and see my daughter's picture along side them. I feel at my wit's end. I want this picture REMOVED. If my daughter loses her job due to You Tube's refusal to act, I'm going to have to hire a lawyer to sue not only the fraud, but You Tube as well. Anyone have any ideas?

Paul Honey, i got that message for a few months before they shut me down, And i did switch to a new look, and it was'nt theirs. So be careful the day may come when the Google Nazi (a picture of a man, gives you one option Switch to the new look, there is no way to close his picture down) and there will be no way to access your emaill, they did'nt do it to me right away either- it took them a few months.If I were you i would have a back up email address you will most likely need it my dear.And good luck if Google is your homepage you may find yourself in the same mess i found myself in, new homepage, new email address and closing down and opening new accounts with all of my contacts, that i was'nt able to chamge my email address with, some of that had to be done over the phone and a few days later i'am still not done cleaning up the mess.

Thanks for the heads up i did'nt know that google/you tube were affiliated.google has been trying to get me to Switch to their "New Look" for a few months now, the fact that i did not do it on my own should have told them that i was not interested.Yesterday when i tried to access my email, up comes the Google Nazi, i have a choice i can switch to the new look or he will just block my access to my email as there is no way to close that window or even delete him.So i have spent the better part of the last 2 days informing all of my contacts that i no longer have an email address and closing all online accounts as well, and now will be forced to restore my computer to factory settings just to remove the Google Program from my hard drive as there is no other way to do it.So i will just use the internet company that i already pay my monthly bill to for an email account and have them be my homepage or choose another one.

YouTube pricing issues

the guy suggested 3x's that we should get the 12 slice pizza with 20 wings special for $22.99 plus tax so we did. when we opened up the carton we found only 18 wings in there but we did get a 12 slice pizza (we ordered extra cheese it didn't look like it was extra) and i ordered my wings crispy and saucy.. i got half cooked with hardly any sauce.. buffalo medium wing and mild bbq sauce - tastes delicious. pizza is tasty but could use extra cheese. my beef was the 18 wings.. i called to talk to a manager to complain. was told no one was there and that they serve the wings by the pound now (same excuse was given 3 months ago). i asked when they plan to change the coupons they delivered in the mail this week, the flyers in the store and the sign to reflect their new pricing.. and having the staff warn people that they don't get what they ordered. the guy laughed at me and said, that's the way it is. I told him i'll be blogging my restaurant review on the internet and telling all the local newspapers (i'm connected to thousands all over the world with my travel blogging and stuff so I get millions of views on my reviews online) that i'll be making a note of this to warn others.. i've also given them the idea girl consulting you did not make me smile award for poor customer service.. the solution is change your flyers and sign to read the following 12 slice pizza and 2 lbs of wings instead of 12 slice pizza and 20 wings.
