I am mad again. This time it is about google accounts trying to sync up with youtube. Every time I check my email, (gmail user here) my youtube account gets signed out, and vice versa. This is because I have my youtube account linked up to a different email, because I don't want spam (did the same for facebook. Thank god I had that foresight). Is there a way to make youtube give the fuck up on my google account so that this doesn't happen anymore.

Did you link it through youtube or google?

I didn't link it at all. This is all happening automatically. I do not want it linked...

I totally understand where you're coming from ICEE, I have 5 google accounts (filtering and other identities). Fucking annoying as hell. I just log into my email through a proxy though when I'm at home. It keeps all the identities separate.

Close your Youtube account and re-open it. You should get an option to link it back with your email.
Log out from everything (Gmail, Youtube etc.) And sign back in to Youtube with the email you want to use.

I think so.
Give this a try: youtube.com/my_account_unlink

It worked, but it flat out told me it was going to re-link it later. I'll leave this open for now, in case someone comes up with anything permanent. Tanks annihilation.

It keeps asking me whether I want to link my email to my YT account when I log into YT. I always say no but it keeps asking me. They seriously need an option to say never ask again.
