Important Youtube Subscription Bug Report

12 years ago

Whenever someone asks me to "sub4sub" or something, I always tell that that I don't care about the subscriber number. What I really mean is that I care about who likes me and my work, not some inflated number. I expect that a lot of other people feel the same as I do on that subject. Youtube breaking the subscription system messes that up for a lot of people.

Hopefully with enough reports they'll look into it and get it fixed.

=====Sub Glitch List and Solutions=====

Glitch 1: You aren't getting notified of uploads from people you are subscribed to.

Solution: Check their pages manually instead of using the Youtube homepage.

-I learned of this one when people kept saying that they didn't know I was uploading videos and had a lot to catch up on. I looked into it and sure enough it's pretty widespread.

-------------------

Glitch 2: You are being unsubscribed from people.

Solution: Make sure you aren't getting unsubscribed from people my making a notepad file of all the people you are subscribed to and compare the list with your subscription manager and/or bookmarking their pages. This method could also be used for Glitch 1, but would probably fill up your bookmarks unless you make a separate folder for it.

-I learned of this one when I noticed people's sub counts were dropping for no reason recently. I also know about it because people have been telling me they were getting unsubbed from me over and over. I can confirm this because I noticed that certain people would sub to me multiple times over time. This one isn't quite as widespread, but a pretty annoying one if you have it.

-------------------

If you have either of those glitches (Or other bugs in general, lol), please report it using the "report a bug" button at the bottom of the page you are experiencing the bug and follow the steps. But be respectful in your report and be as constructive as possible since you are more likely to be taken seriously that way.
