    Can people posting in here use:

    LINK - Joke Thread Title here

    in the thread title if they are linking to other sites as their jokes? Very annoying to see all the http://www.whateversite.com/joke.wmv after clicking into a joke when a 56k modem peaks at 14.4k on its connection if ya catch my drift... :(

    Yeah, I'm getting sick of all the ****ing links being posted here. I don't want to have to go to another ****ing website. What happened to the simple text-joke?

    I think he means Putting a tag on the thread title i.e. [Link]Fat guy falls over[Link]
    will let you know that there is a link to an external video/picture within the thread instead of just text. Like they do with spoilers on the lost Forum.

    I could be completly off tho.

    Link isn't a tag that is meant to work

    Just like in the Lost forums you would have "Season 2 Ep 14 [**SPOILERS**]"

    That kind of thing

    I don't think there would be loads of point in that anyway (and I have T1 internet speeds anyway :p)

    Hover before you open, that gives an inkling on what's waiting inside the thread
