Forum Suggestion: Ability to embed YT vids

[Mattorious]

Sorry if this is in the wrong section, but I wasn't sure where else to put this thread, so here ya go.

Could it be possible to embed youtube videos using BBCode onto these forums? If so, could you guys implement it? It'd be really useful for a lot of different things.

Example BBCode:

Why not just [url] the youtube link? Does it have to be embedded?

[Thorin]

I think that a link would be sufficient for this. When checking this website I'm most of the time at work, where youtube (and many others) are blocked.
There many more places with such policy.

It would also bloat up the forum/post with those embedded player windows.

But this is just me.

Yes, Yes... Embrace the Rick roll.
I can understand the convenience of it, but it's not really needed outside of the video section itself, off-topic, and of course the tester boards.

on a bit of a side note, some of us rather enjoy the low file size of the forums. I can access Ludeon forums regardless of my internet status, provided it's actually connected. Lowest I've had is a shocking 730 B/s (Australia's internet is terribad :/ ) and that could still run the forums fine with little delay.
