Hey guys,

Due to the fact that they were causing hangups due to annoying autoplay video, going forward, links to Twitch pages are officially prohibited. For some stupid reason, Proboards automatically embeds video when a simple link is posted, and posting a link to a Twitch page is causing whatever is currently live to embed!

Until I can find a way to fix this, we're going to do it this way going forward. If you want to refer someone to a Twitch page, simply say the name of the page, no links. Thanks!

I am the best admin ever, the head of the table, your BAV Tribal Chief, and you will acknowledge me. Deal with it.

I am a dumbass.

Apparently getting Twitch videos to not automatically embed was as simple as a flip of a switch...or a press of a button, that is. As such, the ban on Twitch links is hereby rescinded.

However, since the setting applies to all videos posted, you will have to manually embed them now...simply press the "Insert Video" button in the toolbar and the system will guide you through it. As always, videos are generally not to be posted outside of the Video Vault section. Manually embedding Twitch videos is still prohibited, but you can link to them.
