Hey Gang - over the last 6 years our forum has become cluttered with outdated information and spammy posts.
We want to make it easier for you to find the information you are looking for.
As a result, we are migrating to new Forum software soon with one big clean out of posts that are no longer useful.
The new forum will look completely different so don't be shocked when it's launched :)
Let us know if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks! -Tube Toolbox
YouTube is currently undergoing site maintenance and should be complete by 1pm PST.
This is causing many Tube Toolbox features to fail at the moment.

Isn't that what we do every day?? How is Tube Toolbox staying within the terms of service regarding this?

I don't know for sure but I believe we collect user/channel names, not account names. A quick search of this in the YT forum suggests the account name is tied in with google and the YT channel/user name is a different thing - someone more knowledgeable/experienced than me should have a more definative answer though.
