Bishop24 Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 What if in the forums section there was a separate forum for videos, like there's a forum for General XBOX 360, and Achievment Trading Threads and Achievment Discussions and stuff. What if there was a forum just dedicated for videos, gaming videos and funny videos. This is just a suggestion and it might have already been brought up before. But tell me what you think about it.

Zef Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Someone has suggested a link dump for videos before, which is sort of similar. It's much simpler to post any videos you find in the relevant forums, like a sports related one can go in whatever the hell the sport forums are called whereas general game related videos can happily go in the General 360 Discussion or Games forums.

Bishop24 Posted May 10, 2008 Author Share Posted May 10, 2008 I was talking about videos getting there own personal section in the forum. Like Feedback is a forum, videos should have there own forum. But it's just a suggestion though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otisbum Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 He understands your suggestion. He's just saying it's much simpler to keep videos in their own respective game forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birky Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 A video forum would be spam-a-lam-a-ding-donged. Everyone would just post random ass videos and post random ass comments, like "sweet vid man, thanks 4 sharin." I don't think it would work at all.

Bishop24 Posted May 11, 2008 Author Share Posted May 11, 2008 Yea, but it was just a suggestion though. But I hear you about the spam fest that would happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanction Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Then why not make that forum not count toward post count? +1 Me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minty Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 We have a video sub forum..... http://www.youtube.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackjaw x Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 The problem is this: If someone found a video for say, Final Fantasy 49, they would have two options. They could post it in this video forum you suggest, or in the game's specific forum. If they take the first option, anyone looking in the specific forum will miss out on seeing the video, as it'd be too hard to scan the video forum every day to see if something relevant to you comes up. So, it's therefore better to take the second option, and always post videos in the specific forum to make sure that forum has every available piece of information for it. And since basically every possible thing in this universe has a forum or is welcome in General Off Topic, the video forum would be useless.

Bishop24 Posted May 11, 2008 Author Share Posted May 11, 2008 Yea I hear you, sorry I brought it up. I thought it was a good thought when I brought it up, but now I see it was stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
