I'm learning. Usually I just stop talking to people like that, but everything else about him is great (he's the funniest dude I've ever met) and we work right next to each other.

It's like me and one of my closest friends, she's always been there for me, but we not always agree on everything. Lately I feel she's been acting a bit like Marnie (like everybody is hitting on her). I've managed to keep a straight face while listening to her tales.

I've had guy friends that think every girl is hitting on them, when clearly no one is or is going to. I didn't have the heart to tell them. That kind of delusional thinking about women can be a little scary though. Like what kind of trouble could they get in to if they think the waitress bringing them their food means she wants them?

The youtube thing seems to be broken.

The youtube posts now show vertical black blocks.

I use Google Chrome.

As kv suggested, I cleared my cookies, but no change.

SR mentioned that he's getting the black strip too.

It's not working for me either. This is what the BBCode turns that link into, which should work perfectly:

Code: Select all

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/xVjITlgqlHo" width="425" height="350">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/xVjITlgqlHo" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
</object>
If you try the link that it's creating: http://www.youtube.com/v/xVjITlgqlHo it doesn't play right, which is weird. It should. (/v/whatever is the url for just the youtube player rather than the whole page). It redirects to: https://youtube.googleapis.com/v/xVjITlgqlHo But that doesn't play either.

I think I solved it!

I think Youtube has updated their API to use links like: https://www.youtube.com/embed/xVjITlgqlHo instead of /v/. Make sense?

Probably need to update the BBCode for Youtube somehow.

LOL, I caught that there's been some recent posts on this forum and read back to page 2 when Sonny was still posting. What a fucking baby that guy was.

or we could just copy the Youtube code and go and watch the video on Youtube. That process takes 10 seconds. I think it would be a shame to lose all the posts. :noclue: And how often does one watch a Youtube video here anyway? Not very often if you're me

Yeah I don't know if the new phpBB fixes this -- but it could. I'm also not sure why it only stopped working recently -- all old posts with youtube links no longer work. There are all kinds of hacky ways it could be fixed, but it's probably not worth it. :lol:
