sounds a good idea, and mods have to watch videos anyway because you can still link to inappropriate content, and the video doesn't automatically play.

No thank you, it will clog up the forum!
No - and also because you didn't add an "Abstain" option.
I couldn't really care less. It doesn't lag the forums or slow my internet down so if its what everyone wants just do it.
Yeah i really do.
It will be easier too.
This poll has been going on for nearly a month now and it seems there isn't really an overwhelming margin of agreement or disagreement. I can see why people would like to have it, but with those pro's are a lot of cons. Innappropriate material would be a major reason against this.
I say yes but the moderators should have to approve the video before it gets posted ;)
I moderate another forum which is a family orientated, and we have brought the embedding option into play there.
We have given the members a chance, and decided to trust them. Most of them follow the rules we have set, and decided to give it a go. It turned out way better than expected, we put in a rule which clearly said "no outside links to YouTube". The only way to have YouTube in your post was to embed it as [YOUTUBE]the video's code[/YOUTUBE]. We set it so the "other videos" and the "embed this" did not appear at the end, and underneath the video, respectively.
Just thought I'd add that in. It has worked on that forum, it just depends whether you feel the members can be trusted enough here. :)
