The feature to post youtube videos on the forum has been installed. You will be able to post videos from Youtube, Google, and Yahoo Videos. So if you want to post videos, read this so you know how to post videos properly.

If you are on any of the sites, simply look at your browsers address bar and copy it and paste it on, as simple as that.

For Example, if you post the following Code:



http:// youtube .com/watch?v=qEZXIf_IoEE


You will get this result:
Result not shown here because it is prohibited to post videos here. Go to the following thread for an example: It's Going Down - Gamers Forum (http://www.gamers-forum.com/showthread.php?t=5961)


Some Rules:

If you plan to post a video, PLEASE TELL US SOMETHING ABOUT THE VIDEO - If it's just the video, your post will be removed and you will be given an infraction for spamming.
Please do not go and Post a 1000 music videos in one day trying to raise your post count, you will get an infraction.

If too many people abuse this system, this whole system will be discontinued.

......

if you want to share a video from youtube just post the video link in the address bar - other's won't have to go to youtube.com to watch the video, you just save them time and trouble.

Sorry, for some reason I don't comprehend what you mean in your post above, LiNuX. Perhaps I'll make it a bit clearer. You know the video you put up titled it's going down? And you just click the play button for it to play and you don't have to go to youtube to hear it. I want that. How do you put it up?

This sounds like it will be a good idea.... maybe I should go back and change all the old videos I posted.

if you put in just the url they should have converted properly so there is no need to change if th url is correct
