Hive Workshop Bug

The Chieftain and I discussed this some time ago.

At some point in time either (or both) of the following bugs occurred:

  1. YouTube changed the protocols that govern how their content is displayed and it invalidated THW's [youtube] tags.

  2. A recent patch to the site's vBulletin software invalidated the tags.

For example, very old YouTube videos display properly:


However, recent videos DO NOT.

Please bear with us as the administration attempts to correct the problem. Thanks.
 
hmm if vb lets you imput html code

i have a way around it
(it worked december 2007 and i dont think they updated it recently)

I thought allowing html code could be pretty dangerous on forums.

TDR is definitely correct. Giving people that much freedom is probably a little too dangerous.

There would be practically no need for tags except for certain ones. xP

Besides, linking is always fine until this gets sorted out.

And TDR, wtf was that video. That man got owned.
