Rules on Videos

[Seatherny]

I think rules on these needs to be cleared up:

1. How many videos can we have per post?
2. Can the videos contain swearing? - because current its against the rules to post images with swearing
3. Can we post violent videos?

Those are just my questions. I am sure others have many more.

For your first question, I don't think there is a limit as of yet, so just be sensible, they don't autoplay so it's not a massive problem, but I'm sure we will introduce a limit soon.

The videos can contain swearing as long as you place a warning in red and bold stating that the video contains swearing.

As for violence it will really depend on the video I suspect, but for now, it'll be the same as swearing if it will offend anyone, you'll have to place a warning in the post.

Hope this helped.

Thank you .

Another question: Can we post videos with TV shows on them? Basically posting say a episode of House in parts.

That is a tricky one, I'd like to say yes, but as I have said, the rules are very under-developed at the moment when it comes to the new video feature.

Ok thanks. Just wanted to clear it up as warez links are no longer allowed.

I would say this rule still applies with the embedded video being treated the same as a link/spoiler although it is posted on the forum but I expect you will get a reply from the habbox management before too long.


A7. Do not post inappropriate content, links, or images – Images or links with inappropriate content or pictures, gore, nudity, obscenity or annoyance such as never ending pop-ups are not allowed. (Including Signature images linked to the websites). The only exception to this is when posting an outside link such as a video or image where content is mildly sexual/offensive but suitable for 14 -16 years old. This is allowed but it must be a link or in a spoiler with a suitable warning in bold . IT MUST NOT BE POSTED DIRECTLY ONTO THE FORUM and must have a warning in bold above it e.g Warning - this link/spoiler contains content which may not be suitable for younger members.

I will raise this issues when I speak with Garion & Sam later, but for now I would say follow our Super Moderator's handy advice in the post above.

Are we allowed to post videos as visitor messages?

Thanks.

One thing that is annoying me is the fact that if i happen to click the video it will then open a new tab/page for YouTube. Anychance this can be turned off?
