yeah that gray bar is really pissing me off, I hate how you have to keep changing the autoplay off every time you go to a new video, and when I scroll down the bar comes up and gets in my way. but whatever I can deal with it..

I really wonder how the hell they can pay for people to make all these changes when the service supposedly costs more to maintain than it makes.

I prefer the new rating system. Most of the ratings people gave under the star system was either one star or five stars. I can't remember the last time I rated a video three stars. I would usually only rate videos if I really liked them or really hated them. I think most people behaved similarly, so they decided to cut out the largely unused middle ratings.

The new rating system is better but the bar at the bottom is driving me round the bend

Hmm, I actually prefer the stars. Voting 1 star or 5 stars is like saying this game is the best, or this game sucks! :P

I don't like them either, especially this new bar at the bottom of the page.

Get rid of the grey bar and the autoplay by using Firefox with the Adblock and Greasemonkey add-ons. You just need to put 3 filters into Adblock to get rid of the bar. To get rid of the autoplay, you need to d/l a script for Greasemonkey. It's simple and takes about 5 minutes or less to do. Just do a Youtube search "turn off autoplay in YouTube" for the steps.
