Links to Vids
Ok
Remember someone(or somepeoples) ranting on about how annoying links to vidoes on here are to click on(so hard click,clunk done)
Is there anyway possable Master Simo or Mark can enable HTML for us to be able to embedd video's? Or is there a certain reason why this has been disabled.This would then quieten those ranting persons rant

Dont think you will find any forums where they have html in posts enabled very unsecure

If you enable HTML your opening all kinds of issues... one for example is using a HTML code to automaticlly send you to a website. There is hundreds of things to consider.. this is why most forums use BB codes.

As well as the security implications of enabling html posting (and there are far too many to list), I think it would be very unpopular to embed video into threads.
Imagine visitors with slow connections or on dial-up. Loading too many large images can be bad enough, what happens if someone embeds a 10MB video into every post - it would take them forever to read a thread (if they didn't give up first).
Much better to allow people to read the threads, then click to view the video if they want to, rather than forcing it upon them.
