Oy...
I'm too used to the Facebook format. I wanted to "like" this, but have to comment to do so. So I'll just do this:

That's why having a rep system would be awesome for this forum.
And what I said previously is hardly even considered as "name-calling". Overreaction much?

it seems that's no longer an option here. I'm not sure if that is something Luke can change or not. Does anyone else know if that's just a temporary thing or is it unchangeable? Either way I'm happy, I'm just curious, Oh look a cat......
It needs to be setup and the use of html script has been disabled due to security risks. Youtube tags [youtube][/youtube] can be setup if Luke or Rey wants to. This link explains how:

If it is implemented it will look like this(BBcode wise):
Code: Select all

I'm glad we have spoiler tags now but I think it only works on texts. I would thought it can do images as well. I tried spoiler tags a large image but doesn't seems to work like that.

Set people to be your friend. I find it a quick way when using PM (hah, if it works on here) so you can quick click someone to add as the recipient instead of typing their name in.

I thought it was [youtube] ... [/youtube] on PHBB style forums.
Hope it returns.
I would be eternally grateful.

I still say embedding YouTube video is a pain in the ass. If you want to show off a video, just link to it.

For the one posting it, or watching it?
Some boards do it automatically. Wish this one did it.

Yeah, I'd MUCH rather have the videos embedded. Clicking a link is what's a pain.

Clicking annoys me. I am much less likely to click and leave the forum when watching a video then if it is embedded.

couple forums I know and go to have youtube tags. works really well. All you have to do is copy the link in the url and paste it in your youtube embedded tag.
EDIT oh wait you did do that LOL.

With all these old school members coming back I'm going to do a video metaphor
The Ark is the forums redesigned and the animals are us though I'm not sure where to put Donald Duck. But Luke is Noah

Wasn't implemented straight away though. Good to know we now have the option.
Adding to this as an edit to anyone that it might be useful to:
If you have already pasted a link or any text you want to tag, you can highlight (select with you mouse...) that text and it will stick the tags on either side. I'm using Firefox, but I don't see why it shouldn't work for other browsers. Just remember that if you have embed Youtube videos the address won't work in the Youtube tags (unless it is added to how the youtube tags work).
<iframe width="420" height="315" src="
http://www.youtube.com/embed/Qit3ALTelOo" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Delete the rest of the code and replace
embed/ with
watch?v= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qit3ALTelOo if you are going through old embed Youtube videos and replacing with Youtube tags.

After a bit of disorientation I've finally stumbled my way in. Did I miss the after party?
My thanks and appreciation to all involved in the refurb. Best wishes to the new mods.
