Most forums, well maybe not most but a lot of forums, have a certain BB code that allows the user to directly paste a youtube video into a post.
This would be extremely helpful in terms of when creating guides, strategies and other things on these forums. The tag usually looks like this;

www.youtube.com/VideoSpecificURLHere (http://www.youtube.com/xxxVideoSpecificURLHere)


This BBcode tag doesn't seem to exist on these forums, so I was wondering if anyone else know of a way to embedd a youtube video on forums that doesn't support it, or if there's any chance S2 would look into creating this kind of tag.

This forum is gonna be a central hub for HoN players for years to come, these sort of options would be a great help to the people who are going to use it.



I realize this isn't a "tech" problem per say but it seemed to be the most logical place to post this.

did you consider trying to use the imbed code on the youtube website as apposed to the [youtube] ones?

Not possible because this forum does not allow users to post html code.

Website feedback is quite desolate, it is the way it is.

This has been discussed before. We currently do not have plans to enable an embedded object feature.
