    Back in the old days of YouTube you could respond to a certain YouTubers video with your own if it was similar e.g. same game, topic etc...

    I never understood why they took it away and I wish it would come back.

    Anyone else feel the same?

    Well i was probably quite young when this was here, because i have never seen it before.
    But what do you mean by respond with your own video? Is it like in the comments?

    Well its like I put up a Minecraft video and you responded with your own Minecraft video. Which would pop up below as a video response if I remember correctly.

    They removed this feature because people were responding with regular videos (such as a Minecraft Let's Play) on popular channels for views!

    I sorta miss this, or atleast the videos that already had a video response wished that they were still there.

    Ah right kinda thought it was something like that. You'd think they be able to have something in place to stop that happening but hopefully will come back in the future.

    Yeah it should be fairly easy just to let a bot handle all that. Like for example the bot looks for a similar tag on the video or something, and if it doesnt have similar tags, it wont be allowed.

    It always seemed like a way to get cheap views.
