Old Channels Rule!

This is horrible, I tell you, horrible.

On 15 July, YouTube is going to completely change all the channel designs to the Beta ones, as you can see in the link above.

And as you can see, the new version.... SUCKS ARSE.

First of all, the videos. It's SO HARD to find what you want to watch with that mini-sized box with all the videos squeezed in and you have to scroll down everything. It gives me a freakin' headache! Whereas we can just click the 'See All' button and have all the videos appear in the whole page in our current channels.

Second of all, advertisements. Seriously. The new channels allow advertisements and it just makes everything SO DARN LAGGY! What benefit does that bring?

The top 9 video option will be removed and you can't have your own custom background images anymore!

A lot of Youtubers have suggested for the option to decide for themselves whether they want to keep the old channels or change to the new ones. But I doubt Youtube is going to listen since they've already come up with this shit-loaded idea of just changing the channel design of every single living being on Youtube without hearing them out.

It's just completely wrong.
