Help us keep comments respectful – new Community Guidelines comment reminders 0 Recommended Answers 354 Replies 2628 Upvotes
Today we’re introducing a new reminder in comments to help encourage respectful interactions. Now on Android, the reminder may pop up before posting a comment that may be offensive to others, giving the commenter the option to reflect before posting. From the reminder, the commenter can move forward with posting the comment as is, or take a few extra moments to edit the comment before posting it.
Check out some of the FAQs below and let us know any additional comments/questions you may have in the comment section.
Q: What if my comment is not offensive and I see this reminder?
Our systems are continuously learning and may not always get it right. You can decide to keep the comment as is or edit before posting it. If you think our systems made a mistake, select ‘Let us know’ in the notification pop-up to leave feedback.
Q: Can comments be removed if they don’t receive this reminder?
Yes, even if a comment doesn't trigger the reminder (as it won't catch all potentially offensive comments) it may still be removed due to Community Guidelines violations. Comments can also be removed by the commenter or the channel owner.
Q: If I get this notification, does that mean my comment will be removed?
Getting this notification alone doesn’t mean your comment will be removed. Comments can be removed by the commenter, the channel owner, or by YouTube for Community Guidelines violations.
Q: How does your system know what is appropriate? What if it differs by culture?
Our system learns from content that has been repeatedly reported by users. We hope to learn more about what comments may be considered offensive as we continue to develop it.
We know there is more work to be done and this is just a start. We are committed to doing all we can to encourage respectful interactions on YouTube while protecting people from comments that may be considered offensive.

Will the ai reviewing the content of a comment be able to actually understand the thought behind a comment, or will it simply look for key words designated by your team that are "offensive" in nature?

Well, that's the start of it being utterly ruined. Once the political correctness police get on board, with a bunch of very one-sided and determined mindsets deciding what is and is not acceptable speech beyond what the law itself determines is and is not acceptable speech, genuine conversation/discourse and indeed free speech itself is in a downhill spiral. Just look at some of the recent moderation on IGN for example, where one comments section was so modded that it was like stepping into some pat-yourself-on-the-back, virtue-signalling, utterly fake fantasy land of completely insidious bullsh*t.

That's not reality; that's the hand of "social" media twisting and distorting and destroying reality and making it into something very insidious and creepy indeed--and all just a bit too 1984 to even laugh about it anymore.

YouTube permanently suspended my other account because they said I "violated the YouTube community standards" and STILL have yet to provide any evidence that I violated their guidelines or standards.
Just another way to censor opinions THEY do not like.
I have filed several appeals, yet no one will respond with proof that I violated the YouTube guidelines/standards. This is complete BS!!! If you have proof, then please by all means provide it. If you don't, I ask that my other account be restored.

YouTube totally kept me from logging into my app without warning, no emails, no messages, nothing. Emailed them at their department contact and no response. Youtube is a horrible, discriminatory, and highly censored app. It should come as no surprise that they throttle political channels they don't like and remove people's accounts from subscriber lists. Don't like someone politically? Don't post it on YouTube. They will disable your ability to log in. Garbage app run by garbage employees. I guess this is also one of the many reasons why even Joe Rogan, one of Youtube's most popular channels, is leaving YouTube. They mess far too much with people's channels and censor the living hell out of anyone on a site whose comments are considered to be OPINIONS of the commenter and do not necessarily reflect those of Youtube. Pretty soon, people are either going to have to only post happy, agreeable, and rose-tinted comments since YouTube seems to hate anyone with a brain and an opinion of their own. Censorship City is what YouTube should be called instead. Almost as bad as Instagram. Garbage app!!

This is tyrannical and morally unconscionable. I recieved zero notice, and i cant even comment "test" on my own videos without it being shadowbanned. The AI technocracy is real. Welcome to the world, skynet. Please, by all means controll our thoughts by restricting our speech.
Just because a majority of people dislike a comment doesnt mean its wrong. Your logical fallacy is appeal to the majority.
