There's plenty of these topics.

Replace Facebook with Youtube and all of a sudden it's completely relevant.

The ASCII Dicks and Swastikas are pretty bad along with the fake "Expand this comment" links that usually take you places you don't want to go or to a screamer video.

Im kind of in the middle. iv read that it reduced alot of add spam. But dont know if this is really a sarcastic joke

[Henrybrooks]

It is really broken for the people who post videos and want to see the comments they get because all the comments go to the Google plus inbox which makes it a very long process.

What I think? I think it's the worst update yet... I thought the new channel layout was bad until this happened.

Both Ashens and Nerdcubed have tweeted that they have had SOME contact with Google regarding the problems with the comment system. Apparently going so far as to be told that they are working on limiting things like character count and external links, which would go a long way.

 

If they DO reinstate basic anti-spam features like that I think it'll be an overall improvement.

[Henrybrooks]

But why did they not have anti spam anyway?
