Welcome to the Internet.

Also, we can't even have animated images, we should be thankful that we get video posting rights, no matter how limited.

Half of those reasons come from your posts every day.

And im pretty sure any videos that shouldn't be on youtube would be deleted within a day.

Go to YouTube, type in the name of just about any song, and you'll find it. These *should* not be on YT (for the most part) as it infringes copyrights.

And, some of that stuff IS allowed on YouTube, but would not be on here.

Music Videos are allowed lol. Just not leaked ones i guess.

Of course music videos allowed; I'm talking about how people upload videos without permission of whoever owns the copyright.

These usually take months to get removed, if at all.

That's like trying to talk someone into not pirating music because it's illegal. No one cares.

If it was my song i would.

Yes, but it isn't tolerated on the forums is what I was saying.

Why are you guys arguing about what content there is on YouTube? It's pretty obvious that any content posted would be moderated, just not screened or limited to two forums. Therein lies the discussion, not the fact that there is "bad" videos on the site that usually require you to be over 18 anyway. This is the internet, try screening people from Google as it's exactly the same; any links from Google posted with bad content would be removed too naturally.

If someone posted this content you're arguing about they'd be banned, but screening does not prevent someone who has the intent of posting something like that.

An owner is always responsible for his website, his forum and so for the content. Unixmad don't want specific kinds of content so he made the rules for his site. It doesn't matters if you tube moderate their content for +18 or under 18.

Yeah but how often were offensive videos actually being posted before the rule was made?

That's not the point. Unixmad wants more graal related material on the main forum, and that's the purpose of the lounge.
I dont think it had anything to do with moderation, or very little. He just wants the forums to be used for Graal.
The lounge was a good idea to keep non graal related material off the main forum, and in one area, but having the non graal related forum kind of defeats the purpose. One or the other should be removed. The non graal related forum is almost worthless because you cant put links there without permission. It is much easier to just go to the lounge where you know you can, as long as it is appropriate.
I have already removed several youtube videos from the lounge within the last few days that were not appropriate. One had very foul language, and another had nudity.
It is better to have them all in one area, then scattered throughout the forums.
Youtube can be very useful, or other videos, for Graal related things, and that is what should be allowed on the forums, and is allowed.
Videos that are graal related in the scripting forum, levels forum, playerworlds forum, and so on, is allowed, and can be very helpful.

I fail to see what the problem is....

Unixmad didn't make the video rule. In actual fact, there is no rules on videos in the forum rules and Stefan was the person who made them up.

Remember that the same rules as for the other links also go for this, only Graal-related stuff, no hacking.

I guess we are allowed to post videos where we like after all when they're Graal related, and get those that are not Graal related approved like links, and they can be outside of these two forums that have been specified!!! Happy days.

Can you tell me what kinda of content it is that he wants to restrict us from so badly?
