Help: Comments no longer in order

This is why youtube needs a help line. So I can call and yell at someone, it might not help the problem but it would make me feel better.
 
It seams as though they are featuring comments that don't have replies. I'm replying to them and the list refreshes with new comments that I haven't replied to
Nope, I've got comments from ages ago that I've replied to appearing in the comments section.
I am glad so many people have replied to this thread--and mostly are in agreement that this is horrible. The only good news is that comments are still in order in the Dashboard. While I much prefer to reply to comments in Comments (to avoid opening each video), at least we can still see what comments are newest in Dashboard. As for Comments, some people seem to see a method to the madness--that may be, but it is not obvious on mine. My top comments now are from people who have not engaged on my channel or their own in months.
Thanks. I adjusted the little section in the dashboard to display 20 items instead of the original 4 so that helps a lot, especially for smaller channels who don't get frequent comments. Bigger 1s may still be out of luck though.
 
I'm having this issue as as well. I reported it to YouTube, but who knows how long it will take them to actually do anything about it.
 
I just downloaded the Youtube Creator Studio app and at first glance, comments are sorted properly. That means, the most recent comments on any video.
