Google+ Integration: The harms outweigh the Benifits.

"If It isn't broke, don't fix it". This quote applies to the Google+ update as much as ever. I will reply to your replies, then make some more points. Replies to point 1: If you were one of the 80% who had already had a service from G+ linked to youtube, you would be stuck with it and not unlinkable [2] This is under [1] of how it happens. (Albeit Indirectly). This has caused many problem for people who went to youtube with google+. The problem is not google+, it's the combination that neither side wanted. Google+ people did not want their account associated with the pit of **** that is youtube comments, and youtubers didn't want to have the incredible inconvenience that is Google+. Point 2: As for point number 2, notice the big section below that was not noticed by con. Anyways, moving on. Point 3. Here are multiple help Pages that show this problem, with hundreds of likes. [3] [4] About the ripple effects, we can see the same drop happened with Politico [6], while alternative sites to youtube continue to see increases in users. 4. First off, Many other pictures, albiet hard to locate under the thousands of comments on their official video [5], there has been a wide variety of spam, including swastikas, Pedobear, Hammers and Sicks, NAked women, etc etc, all made possible by this character limit removal. Bob's army is different in the respect that people want it to spread, which is why it is more noticeable. Also note: The official video has has over 32000 comments deleted due to spam and virus links. 5. The point isn't getting to it, it's getting the button to do anything, which as evidenced in the video I cited, doesn't. Also, Comments that are marked as spam are barely viewable, so thumbs up isn't going to do much of anything. 6. If It wasn't broken (Which I contend it wasn't), it doesn't need to be changed. If the Google+ update was worth it, then yes, by all means go ahead and break it. But it wasn't. And the problem still remains. 7 & 8. These inconveniences cause people to either not join, comment negatively, and do not cater to the user, the people who give youtube money. These inconveniences take away from youtube as a whole, and don't give in return. New point #9 GOOGLE+ Phasing out inbox and adding timestamp links With Google Making it near impossible to access your inbox from youtube, as well as opening new links when clicking on a timestamp (Both things which were not that way before the Google+ Update). These things increase loading times, Decrease Efficiency, and ultimately do not serve to help YouTube, but to harm it. Note: I wish I could add this [7], but it's for a separate update. New Point #10 New Methods of Displaying Information are not as good As seen in the point #9, time stamps were not the only thing revamped. The Reply Display, on large amounts, will literally crash your browser [8] [Personal Experience]. Both of these slowed down the process. In addition, hitting(on accident or purpose) A like or Dislike would bring up an closeable box, meaning if you were reading comments, then you would have to reload the page, and start it over COMPLETLEY. New Point #11 Sharing All your moves with google+. If you want to remain unknown with your friends while doing something on youtube, LOLNOPE. All your moves need to be posted to google+. It's like a nagging facebook game, only there isn't a game. That is why I want you all to vote pro. Sources: [1] https://support.google.com... [2] See source 4 of last round.
