  2. Our gif only content threads have a rule where all thumbs must be posted as a static thumbnail that does not play. Currently imagebam made a change where they no longer produce static thumbs. Therefore, please do not use imagebam, or any host, that provides live playing gifs in those specific threads. If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    May not be an issue but I thought I would raise it.

    In the video's section, most notably the "funny videos" virtually every link is back to the same one or two sites.

    On clicking your met with a massive ad. I can't help think that this is an orgainsed effort to redirect people to another site. "Dont click the link" I here you say, not my point.

    Why should a full thread be given over to allow people link off and boost traffic numbers and ad revenue?

    I could just go straight to the one or two, maybe three sites used as a source for most of the "funny" videos.

    Just thought I would throw it out there.

    that is always going to be a work in progress. We will see if the rules need to be modified, but the majority of the "spam" vid posters were invited on by the admin here. ;)

    I see the problem, like wtf said, I told some ppl to post their links, if they follow some basic guidlines. I wanted to use this as a kick-start for the new created section. But I'm open for suggestions of how to improve that sub-forum of which I think has a lot of potential if used the right way.
