A few ideas for a forum update

Games Other Halo

  1. Add a refresh button on the page of a thread, that way we wont have to press F5 every 2 minutes to see a reply. (Or add an auto refresh feature)

  2. Add the ability to post youtube videos into your thread with an embedded feature. Simply post the link and the video will pop-up in the thread. That way we can just watch videos from within waypoint and wont have to leave the site. Maybe pictures too? To prevent it taking up the whole page you must click a button similar to the spoiler button to view it.

Add your own ideas below :slight_smile:

> 1. Make a reply box on the same page as the thread, this would mean we wouldn’t have to load an entirely different page to reply to a comment.

Quick Reply exists. Learn the codes if you want something special.

Auto Refresh would just stress out the servers. Adding a button to refresh is the same as hitting F5 or Reload.

The forums would just be lolcats and spam.
