Some of you may think this is a dumb thing to ask about on these forums, but I need help with my you tube. How do you set it on you tube, where people can only comment on your videos if you approve them?

I love change. Change doesn't bother me at all. It doesn't bother me one bit for things to be different from the way things are.
