YouTube finally upgrades its commenting system
November 7, 2013 - 14:10 AMT

PanARMENIAN.Net - As announced in September, YouTube has finally upgraded its commenting system, adding a new format for threaded replies, Google+ integration and better sorting into the mix, Mashable reports.

Before this change, YouTube comments were a long, disorganized list, with no way to follow the conversation and only the most basic moderation. Now, by default, at the top the users will see comments from people in Google+ Circles, video creators and popular personalities. If Lady Gaga has something to say about her own video, they likely see that comment near the top, Mashable says.

Comments with many likes and replies will also be near the top, but if the users just want to see the freshest crop of comments, they can choose "Newest First".

Replies are threaded, and users can report any comment for spam or abuse. Video creators also have a special set of tools for comment moderation: they can remove a comment, report it for abuse or ban the user from a channel.
