Thank you. I never use Google+ and I was so irritated by their youtube migration attempts recently that I didn't look back.

That's weird. I got asked _once_ if I wanted to migrate my YouTube account to G+, I said no, and never got asked again.

I've seen stories both from people who continually got pestered (like myself) and from people who didn't (such as yourself). I dunno why though.

I get all those messages too. I think it's because I'm using an old youtube account that I later connected to the google one.

That's what happened to me too.

are you actually hitting the "No" button, and providing a reason, or are you just closing the dialog?

I gave "No" with reasons, and got asked two or three times.

When was the last time you logged in, from an logged out state?

I get pestered every time I log in.

I'm pretty much always logged in. Just to be sure, I went to YouTube, logged out and then in again, but nothing different happened.

I have a standard Google Account username (i.e. my username and not my real name appears when I comment) and it's not linked in any way to G+ (although I _do_ use G+ often, might that be the difference?).
