I've noticed this quite a bit too. It's pretty freaky going back into our comments and finding extensive conversations with blatantly inappropriate messages and other inane content. Of course we get different types of spam comments too, with some people scripting requests and even botting the likes on their requests (always posted at exactly the same time, with the same likes, same comment, etc.). I only hope KZbin finds a way to deal with this that doesn't accidentally punish legit users. What a mess.

In some cases it's the channel owner or mods that shadowban people but other times, it's youtube bots and there's clearly something wrong with their bots. Like they obviously have some bots trying to detect offensive comments, harassment/bullying and it doesn't work because AI can't detect sarcasm or understand context well enough.

[@OrangesLmao]

The big problem with all the bots and ways of fixing them being bypassed is due to one amazing thing about programming and coding that is a double edged sword. There are millions of ways to program the same exact action through all kinds of languages, so if one way is banned, or 1000 more ways are banned, the bot hosters will whip up a new code in no time and keep hosting (usually they are rented out to spam certain bots/messages).

[@charlestonianbuilder344]

@@cthecheese i think a good way to counter it is to play the cat and mouse game, where you let it fester abit so that they can be easily identified, then ban them, then add a new option in the report description such as bot, it would be sent to a human team which would check them all, or ban all accounts on the platform, and in order to get in, you need to so a test to check whether your not a bot, do this differently and you can kill off bots, im not really a tech guy so i dont know wether it works though

Also, you can just go to any big music video and see comments by verified channels with massive likes who go something like "It’s *current year*, let’s see how many legends are listening to this masterpiece" or "This song never gets old". They don't mean what they're saying - just searching for people who go to their channel. And I don't know why but there are a lot of bot channels going around with MrBeast Profile Pictures, probably to bring kids to their channels.

i've researched a lot into the verified bots, so lemme give you the full fnaf lore. it was all started by a 15 year old with an depressed, vhs-filtered xxxtentaicon profile picture that got his channel (with 4k subs) deleted because he illegally streamed a logal paul fight (or it was jake paul, i don't care. also, i did not make that villian orgin story up, the kid confirmed it on discord). so he botted all the subs for a channel for himself, and then made other channels like that, and sold them for like $500-$2000. you can recognize these channels by their weird, one word names (for example, "book" "bird" "zoo" "z" "bee" "cheese" "p". pick a random word from the dictionary). some of these bots copy paste the same comments, some copy paste the top comment (the worst imo). either way, since it's a verified channel, their comment is boosted to the top in the comments section. and youtube does nothing about it, and will even let these channels change their names on a whim and re-verify them (you have to reapply to get a checkmark if you change your name, i think, and then youtube reviews it). so i've seen some guy go from "lmao" to like "spike" to "mr. beast" and youtube verifed him each time, even with the fake mr. beast name. it's useless to report them, youtube does ziltch about anything reported. thank you for coming to my ted talk

Ill never forget that the official youtube "response" in the comment section of their "why we're disabling youtube dislikes" had more bots replying to it than actual people. It really does speak volumes to the quality of the website imo. Is youtube going to fix it? Nah, doesn't cut into their bottom line. Not like mass disliking corporate garbage videos does.

KZbin: The comments have been a problem for some time now, and we care and love our creators and the community they have, WE ARE PROUD TO SAY THAT WE ARE NOW DISABLING COMMENTS IN KZbin, AND ONLY CREATORS CAN SEE THE COMMENTS FOR THEMSELVES.

[@Juliamh2222]

I can’t wait for another platform to come along and be more beneficial to creators. Platforms like KZbin, Twitter and Facebook treat their users/creators like crap and get away with it because they basically hold a monopoly on their chosen form of social media. We need more competition out there to force these platforms to start LISTENING to their user’s concerns and actually DO SOMETHING about it. It’s a toxic relationship.

[@qunt2742]

I really don't think we'll see another platform compete with KZbin in the same way unless it gets some serious money thrown its way, and can be worthy enough to drag away some big names. But who has that money, and actually cares?

[@beanboiz3381]

I really want that too, but unfortunately I don't think it's gonna happen anytime soon. A new site would need serious money to come anywhere near KZbin or other platforms.

[@minigunner1218]

A big problem alternative platforms have been having is that it doesn’t take long until the toxic people that have been reasonably banned from the major platforms start flooding in, more than the fledgling moderation team can handle. Then the major platforms weaponize that to shame the alts out of business. Not to mention the massive jump in resource usage that startups rarely are prepared for, turning the site into a sluggish nightmare that drives more people out, and once the company can afford the bandwidth and storage and whatnot, it’s likely too late.

[@ShadowD2C]

I really loved this site bcz you can just watch videos of my favourite creators and not interact with ppl. But ever since they removed the like button i cant stomach it. I hope another website as good as early youtube appears

[@MiauFrito]

There is a very much popular platform whose name starts with an O and then there's a dye with no e, and then there's a see I'm not gonna write it because that how much I truly trust this site (it wouldn't surprise me at all if this sort of comment got flagged and the account that wrote it becomes an eternal undesirable with the same perks as the lowering of your soc. credit score in the eastern far lands)
