Google makes youtube even more impossible to use. (comment changes)

[QUOTE=aussiedropbear;42781997]I might be totally missing something (sorry if I am) but what if I want to see the comment he replied to?
[IMG]http://puu.sh/5aT4s.png[/IMG][/QUOTE]
Clicking the "in reply to" thing brings the comment he replied to to the top, but it reloads the entire page in the process.
What the fuck is the YT department even doing, this makes no sense. How did anyone think this was useable?
I can't even find the inbox where comments are displayed. They still kept the old Inbox for some reason but they're not updating it so you need to go to Google+ notifications to see peoples comments BUT THERE'S NOTHING THERE
God fucking damnit
This sucks in a lot of way, but will hopefully help in cutting down the stupidity and hate spewing out of the comments of so many videos.
I am not entirely sure if the change is justified though? It might not even work to keep assholes out of comment threads.

With the nested comments and "circle discussion", it seems like it will be easier than ever for people to abuse the social system and harass others. I still have to see what the new system is like before stating anything though.
Fucking shit, i am not connecting my YouTube to my Google+ fuck that.
this is the only time i don't like something youtube changed.

you can make a google+ page with your username and still keep your user without showing off your actual google+ account.
the only minus point is that it seperates your main account from your youtube, so you can't access purchases from your main google account if you bought a movie or something on youtube until you log back into your main.
Due to my addons, I can't actually type.
I guess it's better to not participate anyways..
Damn this sure would matter to me if I lost enough braincells to start reading or posting comments on youtube
I saw this on Tumblr and it raised a pretty interesting question.

Maybe not Internet Explorer, but Google Chrome? Of course nothing wrong with Google Chrome, but there's plenty of people who prefer other browsers. What with all this Google+ bullshit, I wouldn't think forcing people to use their browser would be too far out...

Oh god and it sends you e-mail notifications for replies to replies to your comments.

It's a good thing I don't use the account that's tied to my Youtube account anymore.
I'm glad they've changed it, better then having thumbs up whores on every video.
They have bots that go on random videos with messages that say "This new comment feature is great!" and "This comment system is sure to stop trolling! Thanks, Google+!" and berate people who talk shit about it.

Is there a way to get Youtube Center to work with this?
good to see people are using the no comment limit effectively.

Oh man that would be nearly perfect.
Also the comments don't even load for me.
I haven't seen a thumb down on a comment for years, only thumbs up
Fucking Hell I've had it with their bullshit. I can't even edit certain parts of my channel from Youtube anymore! They force me off to my Google+ account to do that shit. In fact, I wouldn't even have a Google+ account if it weren't for them forcing me to get one for Youtube.
How do I unlink this bollocks from my Youtube account?
I checked it out on another browser and it looks better to me, the comments are nested to the original, below that it has a +[boldednamehere] [comment].
Why exactly does everyone hate it? Do you have to have a G+ page to comment?

Yeah. You need a google plus account now in order to post, iirc. Also I think it looks like facebook comments, which is why I hate it so fucking much.
Although I do like how they added the ability to put italics, underlines, and bolded lettering in your comments.
I'm never going to look at Youtube comments ever again.

more like

Well I did say I only looked at it, because they simply aren't showing up for me at all. I assume it's not rolled out to everyone yet, but who knows.

I actually just found it. ABP blocks the comments from loading.
Even if you press the quit button when it manhandles you to link the accounts, almost EVERY LINK and every 10 minutes a popup prompt appears.
I'm so sick of this I would rather deal with the nnd comment system.
Jesus fuck, it's literally become twitter.

your youtube profile will stay the same, But you will have a new username and profile pic to upload.

Your entire channel moves to the new account. If you login with your old account it will show up empty.
When is a new video site going to pop up?
