Who actually reads youtube comments? Anyone here? They should just remove comments all together or allow only the video poster to create and approve comments.


+1. I don't see why there's so much whining. The YT comments are shit, and you'll be doing yourself a favor installing by a extension like this [1] (which, unfortunately, doesn't work with the new system yet)

Doesn't want to comment under your real name for whatever reason (trolling, personal info, fear of being stalked, etc)? Don't comment. Everyone will be better off.

Disabling comments and allowing only approved comments are options that uploaders can choose if they want. http://i.imgur.com/nhRsdK4.png
