To the YouTube community,
On October 11th, 2009 at 12:00 A.M. MST, the YouTube staff relinquished all the remaining old channels, and forced everyone to convert to YouTube Beta 2.0. Roughly 85\% of the community expressed that they did not like the new look, while the remaining 15\% expressed they liked it, or they had no choice for new users. Yet, despite most of them expressing negative comments over the new channels, YouTube still decided on making the change anyways.
Most of the complaints were as followed but not limited to:
Their channel looks too big or too blotchy.
Their playlist is not in plain view for others to see.
The ability to order your videos top 1-9 is no longer possible.
Favorites are too compressed.
Editing information and channel must be done on your channel and cannot be opened in a new window.
Bios and Information is now located at the bottom and not conveniently located at the top of the page anymore.
YouTube gave a message to everyone before viewing their new profile. They quote Weve redesigned them to make them more interesting to watch and more fun to customize. However, YouTube did not write anything mentioning that you could be allowed to revert if desired. This petition is to have YouTube surrender this policy, and let the people have a choice whether they want their old profile back or not. This is not to get rid of YouTube Beta 2.0 completely for those who still wish to keep it.
There are a lot of users on YouTube, so I cannot request an accurate amount of petition signers. But I am requesting a minimum of 5,000 people from the YouTube community to sign. Once this number is reached or breached, I will then mail the letter and the signers to YouTube headquarters in California.
Please, while signing, state your reason why you want your old channel back, and sign with your user ID you use on YouTube. Do not leave your reason blank. Doing this may possibly waive your signing. Your ID is important and may be vital. However, your protection is more important, and will not force it from you if you do not wish to reveal it.
Thank you for taking the time to read this, and appreciate your participation.

- The YouTube Beta 2.0 Channels should have a choice by the user whether to implement the new channels or not. If users do not get to chose how they want there channels then it is not a user community correct?

- Not happy with the new layout or how playlists videos & favorites are handled, the fact that settings from my original page were not converted to new format, the new style is not more fun or easier to use with many bugs like videos not showing up or disappearing when scrolling, forcing a beta on folks and not a finished tested setup is useless, if your gonna do that at least add in the option to utilise stuff from the labs such as the warper or something! Tho even that wouldnt please me :P
