    @pametty11 @scobie @YouTube I honestly hope that you get what you wish with this new venture. But they need to work way more to interest people outside UK. They also need to stop centering everything on them and hightligh the charitable society they are supposed to help.

    @Annabtlouise @YouTubeCreators @YouTube We need help asap please!!

  • WaqarQaswarkhan Waqar Qaswar Khaira (@WaqarQaswarkhan) reported

    @KlasraRauf @gtvnetworkhd @YouTube Unelected members of cabinet are the main cause of all the issues

    @sumitkapoor16 @YouTube @YouTubeIndia Please resolve my brothers issue as soon as possible.

  • CVanderpunk VANDERPUNK RULES (@CVanderpunk) reported

    @delilahc401 @scobie @YouTube You really are quite the trouble maker, aren’t you. Sorry if I can’t muster up the levels of hatred towards H & M that you would like me to, but that’s really not my problem. Now, if you insist on trolling, at least be honest about it, or go on your merry way.

    @GyanTherapy @YouTube Brother video with quality is just lit and would like to get this type of UI videos posted regularly....

  • BarryAr68034973 Barry Arnold (@BarryAr68034973) reported

    @shawnhughes69 @YouTube Hey Shawn you should tell your "wifey" to give 100% to her onlyfans account. She charges $25 a month and updates about once a week and the quality is total crap. I bet she has less than 10 subscribers.

    @YouTube @Roku Stop being greedy bastards and get your **** together so those of us who enjoy watching the free version of YouTube on Roku can continue to do so without getting a stupid error message everytime.

  • 60Heoj06 Heoj (@60Heoj06) reported

    @JayDlegend @YouTube the fact that people have a problem with this is pretty ridiculous

  • HCM27934280 HCM (@HCM27934280) reported

  • Barbara27541025 BarbaraT (@Barbara27541025) reported

    @KensingtonRoyal @YouTube And the PR TrainWreck continue at the expense of the Taxpayers. How about you two get some real work done that comes to fruition. But one has to wonder if there is a lack in Innovatives skills in The House of Windsor.

  • shae90_shae Pre-order #TheBench today! (@shae90_shae) reported

    @pametty11 @YouTube They've been at this for over a decade and here you are acting like they are new to this. The problem isn't the message, the problem is the messengers. Majority of their followers go to bed by 7pm.

  • abrarnaveed naveed (@abrarnaveed) reported

    @RehamKhan1 @YouTube Your kids (especially daughters) must admit you in the mental hospital and your son (the caretaker of your funds to fight a court case) should be given some job to work and earn instead of making money on 18+ book written by his mother and now a fund organizer. Shame !

  • Givepeaceacha16 Givepeaceachance (@Givepeaceacha16) reported

    @rjmyers @YouTube Many have been saying that the tv news programmes don’t share enough of their charitable work. Already it emphasises how much work they do and even more importantly the fantastic charities they work with. Service helping humanity👏🙏👏

  • GozzyVibes Gozzy Vibes (@GozzyVibes) reported

    @djjimmyjatt @YouTube Please someone should help me with 500 Naira 🙏🙏

  • 1michaelgray1 Michael Gray (@1michaelgray1) reported

    @poppymoppet @kevinkjh22 @YouTube It's a horrible, lazily written song, more or less the song of a stalker, which Adele's promo video makes fairly explicit. And it's the one Dylan song liked by people who've never liked his work.

    @Kellykellam @RealCryptoFace1 @YouTube How did you add the indicator ? I can't see the "invite only script" option. please help

  • GurlVenom simply_dangerous // Wiktoria (@GurlVenom) reported

    @hitsho_o @YouTube ah yes, tracing. i could do that as well. but i won't. cause that's stealing someone's hard work.

  • CVanderpunk VANDERPUNK RULES (@CVanderpunk) reported

    @delilahc401 @scobie @YouTube Exactly who are you trying to convince? Because for someone who couldn’t care less, you seem to make an awful lot of noise about them.

  • setsune_w Setsune Wave (@setsune_w) reported

    @saturn_dev @YouTube @YouTubeCreators The FTC never wanted this in the first place. They said so. This was an intentional overreaction by YouTube to paint the FTC as the bad guys who want to make YouTube worse, and when it didn't work they just left it. Making Kids restrictions per-video was never the right idea.

    @uqiya_facemaker @YouTube Hi man, can I ask a question about the 2.79 script? I put it, made a face, but when exporting a hairstyle and a face, it gives out ,, Mesh [mesh_id_face_0 (and hair_0) normal_map name isn't correct!], How to fix it? I would be grateful, because the script is very convenient.

  • Jakpetka2 Jakpetka (@Jakpetka2) reported

    @YouTube Hello so on youtube it tells me this because I got banned and deleted account: Can't create new account because of past account issues. How long will it last? Also I didnt get any email about why I got banned. Thanks

  • celine19972 Arizona (@celine19972) reported

    @KensingtonRoyal @YouTube Me, me, me and me... No humanity, no generosity, no sincerity. A YouTube channel just to get extra money... Do you feel the end of the monarchy or feel threatened by a couple who work with the older ones?
