I know you guys have a lot on your plate right now, but I was just thinking, a lot of forums I go to have [youtube] tags, which makes browsing easier not having to open new tabs/windows, and its just cool :)

Let me see if I understand you right. Do you mean people type [YouTube] in their title and that lets you know that there is a link in there, or do you mean they can post a YouTube video as a topic? Similar to a no-post poll?

I think he means it embeds a youtube video into the page, if so I'll sort it out when I get the chance.

I think that it would be a good thing to have too because some projects have videos on YouTube that are trailers for their game.  It would make this place more modern.  So long as it is not overused and so long as there are no pages with over twenty things embedded.  Some things are better as links, while somethings could benefit as embedded videos.

I always thought that was already possible by just taking the link from the site next to the video. I guess not. This would be a really good feature, often times when people post youtube links I just overlook them because I don't feel like putting it in a new tab and going to it to watch it. This way I can just click it and watch right away.

Great idea .TakaM :D

If I'm not mistaken, that embed code next to the video only works if HTML is enabled, which is rare to find on a forum.

What do you mean I need a life?  =P  Hm... Lives... Isn't that something that you get in Super Mario Bros?  You know, those green mushrooms?  That's a life, right?

Blah, you just need to put in the video ID between the tags and it works. eg. [ youtube ] BCJ3_MJJniQ [/ youtube ]

If you enable the HTML tag, then you can use the YouTube embed code... but this new YouTube tag rules pretty much, too :D!

EDIT: Although, Infinitus, you did post a kinda bloody video... I thought we were meant to be PG-13, not... (what's the USA equivelant of 18? ...NC-17 or something?)
