Has anyone ever had problems with posting comments on youtube videos? Everytime i copy and paste a comment and click "post comment" it adds the comment, but then  when i refresh the comment is gone. It's so fucking annoying.

Then other time i will write a comment and instead of saying "comment posted!" the button will just be unclickable and will say "post comment" does anyone know how to fix this?

Yeah I get that. It happens to me when I post a link. They blocked them due to spam.

But instead of saying "you can't post a link" it just does the annoying unclickable button thing.

But i never have links in my comments, just copied and pasted comments. It drives me insane.

By "copy and paste a comment", do you mean you repeatedly spam the same thing? They may have put something in place to prevent this... given the e-maturity of the majority of YouTube users.

Nope. I copy and pasted something into 1 comment and tried to post it.

Oh well I can't say I've ever heard of this problem before. Maybe their anti-spam method is still blocking the copy-paste function?

Edit: I just tried the same thing several times and several different ways, and was unable to reproduce. Can you give us any more detail?

As far as I'm aware, it's all done in real-time, so your page doesn't refresh when you're in the middle of watching a video. YouTube haven't done it very well so there's a lot of room for error.

It happens to me every now and then too. It tends to work most of the time when you press a link that is within the YouTube domain. Odd.
