Dark Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 I made a MyBB website, and while I was making a Forum, I noticed that there was something called HTML. If you are unaware, HTML is the code used to post YouTube videos, also known as EMBED code. Currently, this is disabled in YCM. I think that HTML codes should be enabled, so we can watch posted YouTube videos directly, instead of opening a seperate link or tab. It would make it so much easier, and it would be so much easier to post videos, both in your sig and in a post. So, please discuss about if you agree or not. I agree for the signature HTML and the posting HTML. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloodrun Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 The thing with the HTML code, is that members can also post porn videos, as well as illegal videos.That's just not a good thing for the site.I would like HTML Codes turned on, because I like making things using HTML, but we can't always have what we want.

Dark Posted December 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 Oh darn, you are right, I had never thought of that. And it is not like you can select which videos can be posted or not. Unless you enable "Manage all HTML". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shrekstasy Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 3 reasons not to:Â 1). People will post porn.2). The max. sig length would have to be increase.3). When you play the "Rate the Above Song" game, you'd have a bunch of vidoes playing at once, resulting in freezing a dated computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Culpa Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 Yes Twisted is right. My computer is old and it sucks when all five billion (over-exaggerating, yes I know) videos play at once Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larxene Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 You don't need HTML to post Youtube videos. On IPB, it's possible to post Youtube videos by copying the code at the end of the video link, and putting it between tags like this. Code goes here.  It's as simple as adding that.

iKiller Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 Limited HTML code, yes. Otherwise, someone could embed a website, or it could be abused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jericho Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 Yes. Limited. As in only YouTube and other non-profit, non-pr0n sites. And why would you have to worry about multiple videos playing at once unless you PLAY THEM ALL AT ONCE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Posted December 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 Yeah, I understand how some people can change porn to HTML and post that, so a YouTube tag is what I was aiming for, I just don't know how to enable that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
