The inactivity of this forum.
Thu Apr 02, 2015 11:06 pm by Burkman
It's depressing to see how inactive it has been recently. I mean, everybody is pretty much primarily posting in the never ending thread now and there's not enough people here to make this place really booming. We need to find some way to bring more people here before this place just fades into nothingness...
I know for a fact that a lot of boards out there are thriving because of how many people are there. We just need to get back into the game and pull people here. However, where we obtain these people might matter, because we don't to end up pulling in douches like those at Selkath.
I understand that people are busy these days, but it doesn't seem like they're rarely at their computer anymore. I know most of you are still dicking around with your computer. I don't know how we …
Happy New Year OT! We may be dying... BUT WE'RE STILL HERE! We had an... interesting year last year. Vice Admin Burkman is taking a long earned vacation and Uly is stepping into his position. Well... I'd have more to say but I've got other things to do atm... and oh yeah... to quote Callin... "GET A MIC YA BUM!"

Use the one for YouTube... Otherwise they might not show up, appearing as a blank space in your post... Plus, it's easier- you don't need to figure out the dimensions of the embedding...

cus honestly i dont understand your complaint. i preview all my posts and they show up for me. and i really didnt understand what you said either. im not a forum genius, but i can be taught. just gotta explain in laymans terms and a step by step program.

This is still using the basic flash video embedding option. The youtube (and or some reason dailymotion) specific option is right next to it- the little video reel thing... You just copy the url into the slot and don't worry about dimensions...

I'm not complaining... I'm just pointing something out... Flash videos from YouTube can be embedded using the generic flash embedding option but they might not always show up (due to a possible mix-up in selected dimensions- YouTube uses one, you want to use another and the two jump at each-other's throats like women in a shoe sale) , though it's a rare occurrence (like the little glitch where read topics appear as unread)...
The youtube embedding looks like this:
It's simpler to spell-out, instead of finding the option, clicking it, etc...

seriously you lost me. how do i embed. other than the "generic" way that you say i do it. i tried to click on the embed option with youtube but when i imputed the code all it did was show a line of code in preview. is this what your talking about?

What? I dunno... Maybe it just hates you...
Here's how the code line looks like: (gonna use the squiggly brackets in stead of the blocky ones)
How is it that you can't get this from quoting posts with videos in them and looking at the link?
i see it in quoting now that im looking for it

Oh, wait... You mean the embedding option on the YouTube site? No... That's HTML-based... Our site does not deal with the same code... I'm talking about the option on our site... Look up from the posting box, now scoot to the right a little. Find the buttons for imputing links and images... You know, where the 'insert flash' option is... Right next to it, on the right, is the 'insert a video' option... That's what I'm talking about...
Hmmm... And is the site making a joke of me all of the sudden? All the video links I used appear as flash-embeddings (when they should be youtube embeddings)...

I'm starting to think this site is pulling a fast one on us...
This has been embedded using the [youtube] code, but upon editing... It's the [flash] code...

so im not supposed to copy the url into the VIDEO option? cus thats what i have been doing.
so what do i link in there? if i hit the share option in youtube i get another thing i can link in there and that was what i used for the test.
and yes i do have to agree with you. were being fucked with. i blame Scott. he is sittin back and everytime you go to look at a thread he is in there messin with the posts. editing them so you delve deeper into madness. he changes them back once your done lookin at em.

No... You do use the url between the two bracketed codes...
You know... Lets just drop this... The site is just being a fucking troll again... Changing codes willy-nilly and shit... Your links are OK... They work...
