Youtube has cancer.

[Akalistos]

Yeah Ok, here's a picture of this bullshit.

Spoiler

I don't know why, but i never once encounter that in my life. Yes, i do have a account (canadaman1985) and yet, i haven't seen this before. Hell, if you didn't post that pic i would have call bullshit on you.

 

[Akalistos]

I thought you were talking about the decline in quality of youtube

Me too. Yeah, it's kinda shitty now.

 

[Mr. Gency]

It's like that google image thing. It's neew but that doesn't make it a good thing.

I like the new Google image search.

It's alright. To me it's just a bit of a fuster cluck and I can never able to really focus on the images or see imidately the one I want. Don't surpose you know a way to change it back to the original?

Oddly (but not surprising), image serch retains it's original look (for the most part) on the PSP's web browser.

I hate the damn thing, it's bugging the shit out of me.

My laptop has a small screen so whenever I go towards the comments section that stupid bar scrolls up in my way.

I am getting tired of YouTube, I only use it because some of my favorite reviews are on that site and because it has a large data of video, thing that other do not have.

I love the new playbar (or whatever it's called), but the autoplay toggle definitely needs to either persistently store the last setting, or have the option to set a default value for it.

Personally, autoplay videos in general annoy me. They rarely calculate the buffering correctly, and end up start-stopping as a result. There should be a setting in the account interface which lets me set all YouTube videos to require play mode to be manually activated.

 

[Mr. Gency]

I like to think Youtube is getting worse because Google only hears people's complaints.

On a slightly-related note,why did Youtube change the whole damn rating system?

Because that is working against us.

 

[Mr Montmorency]

If you hate it so much, why don't you just turn it off?

Read the fucking topic! You can't turn it off!

 

[LorChan]

I was bothered by it at first, but by now I don't really care.

 

[Mr. Gency]

User was put on probation for: illegal downloads?. (3 days)

Really? Shame on you.

 

[ShoopDaToaster]

YouTube is just falling apart... I wish they would stop messing with it and keep it the way it is. No one wants all these dumb new updates.

Agreed,most of the updates were awful,but we got used to them (beta channel) but now with the removal of star ratings,thats when Youtube wen't to shit.

 

[superbatranger]

That Chrome link worked like a charm. That stupid shit was getting annoying.

 

[lacktheknack]

I've not seen it. I thought the cancer was the viewers and commenters.

 

[Sneaklemming]

Hahaha I guess that's true, but it's used quite often to refer to broken websites, on the chans =P

((love robocop))
Referring to something as a cancer has been around far far longer than 4chan! Without giving it too much thought, Robocop, 1987 (Detroit has a cancer, that cancer is crime). But I'm pretty sure it was used earlier than that.

Doctor: "I've looked at your test results and I'm sorry to say you have Cancer"
Patient: "oh god no! What do you mean what type of cancer"
Doctor: "crime."
Patient: "huh?"
Doctor: "you have crime cancer, it's the worst kind with a high recidivism rate and destroys entire communities. These liberal doctors say we should go easy on these damn tumours, that they are just a product of an unhealthy lifestyle and many treatments only cause more cancers to appear. Bullshit! Those cells chose to replicate uncontrollably, they get all that they deserve"

Patient:"!"

That is entirely confusing.

I've grown tired of watching a video on Youtube and seeing "14 people missed the like button"

 

[AndyFromMonday]

There should be a setting in the account interface which lets me set all YouTube videos to require play mode to be manually activated.

BUT HOW WILL THE YOUTUBE WHORES GET VIEWS THEN?!

OT: Extensions did the trick for me. It's annoying though. YouTube should stop bullshitting around with YouTube without asking the community first or at least have some sort of beta test that involves more than their internal testing team and partners.

 

[Tarakos]

Youtube knows that they can do whatever the hell they want, because they have no competition. Personally, I fucking hate all these GUI updates every few months. It's getting ridiculous.

 

[Darkadder246]

Raise your hand if you can't stand the auto-play bar at the bottom of youtube videos.

Fuuuuuuuuuuu!

If you don't know, it sets up a queue of videos and plays them when the video youre watching ends. Automatically. Without your consent. And you have to turn it off every single time you go to another video.

Because I love you.

You are THE most awesome person ever THANK YOU!

 

[The Unworthy Gentleman]

I don't understand YouTube. They have a perfectly nice wall to the left of the screen, and yet they haven't stuffed it full off unnecessary links, tabs, videos, adverts, homeless Koala bears etc etc.

Seriously, I think piece by piece they're trying to make sure the viewer can't see anything white around the video.

On the autoplay bar however, I've never used it as I haven't watched a video on YouTube in a long, long time that wasn't embedded somewhere else.

Haha, so I'm not the only one. That's good. I've never been able to stand Youtube. The effort and complaints to get on it at school were in their large numbers and the site never offered anything of real use to me. It especially annoyed me when a teacher would use it to show a full show in class... it was in about 6 or more parts for about an hour of video. I could get you a Megavideo link in under a minute for the same show and we'd be able to watch it all in one (so long as it wasn't over 72 minutes... damn you Megavideo!)

All my hate aside. When I have used Youtube it's always changed. First the new layout, second the vuvuzela buttom (what the fuck was the point in that Youtube?) now this apparent autoplay feature that I've not used or had trouble with.

What next; feedback surveys after 5 clips? full length adverts before your video? free condoms? Wait, let me rethink that list.

 

[Mr. Gency]

The autoplay bar it self is worse than cancer.
