It'd be nice for some people who like to share videos of them playing during war, or just general sharing purposes... for example, HolyHell LOVES sharing videos from youtube, and you cant deny.. they make you laugh :P

dunno, just a thought?

i know for sure gm's can do this since they had it on a previous forum. altho, with all the psoting being done, i think it's already ahrd enough for gm's to keep the forum clean enough and empty enough for them not needing to buy/hire another server for this stuff.

PS : dont get me wrong, i liked it aswell, but i previously overheared something (i think from rogerio) before

Youtub BB codes are just a direct link to the youtube video though, nothing is being uploaded to the dr-int.com servers.

I think the video will actually play within the thread instead of redirecting you to youtube..

it is basically the same as embedding a video.. only that since you CANT use typical embed codes, you'd need to make an addon to use in bbcode. nothing is uploading to the actual forum and it isnt a "direct link" to the video~
