Ok, so I'm pretty sure that we all get we can't post inappropiate links and all that, but there is some that I think just isn't right. Like Foop said, Let Me Google That For You, and Youtube Repeater not being allowed isn't a world-ending, time stopping problem, but I would like a legit reason why they can't be posted , and not, ''To protect the chatters.'' because posting Google links and Youtube videos can be just as bad as posting something that leads to the SAME EXACT THING AS A GOOGLE SEARCH and something that plays youtube videos, just on repeat, but it can also be not bad at all, as most of them are.

All in all, I'm not saying, go crazy and let everyone post whatever they want, but for the ones that can cause little to no trouble --Screenshots and direct links to pictures and such- should be at the least thought about being able to be posted on the chat, and I would like to hear you guys' thoughts about this.

Allow screenshots and i'll link the chat to screamers 24\7 gl

Screenshots don't move,
Doing that can get you removed as head CM, easily,
And this is a serious suggestion for serious people.

-- Allowing screenshots would basically allow anyone to post a picture of anything on their screen which could include but not limited to: porn, gore, killings, nasty stuff... etc..

So that is never going to happen.

Why not LMGTFU -- Why cant you just type whatever and link the google?

YOUTUBE REPEATER-- Why cant u link the youtube link and the other person can put it on repeat...?

LMGTFY Is different, because it might be that but it's not as funny.

YOUTUBE REPEATER-- Why cant u link the youtube link and the other person can put it on repeat...?

2. funnier

So what you're saying is that there is no REAL problem??

No one wants to listen to darude sandstorm on repeat. Anyway, making an exception to this rule simply because it may be helpful in very few situations (when was the last time you clicked on someone's youtube video and then just mashed repeat?) would open the door to other just as marginally useful links.

Ok, ok.. As someone who has received warnings for this..

..We know most people can be trusted with links. These are your frequent chatters, mods, CMs, and Frook. People should only be allowed to post links other than those specified in the rules if there is a mod present, and they are one of the trusted users. Others should simply have to ask the permission of a mod, through PM.

Granted, that's a little complicated - I'm just trying to suggest something because aaRgrGAhEaEAGhaEAARhgRAhGARthisannoysme

When is a mod "present?" What if they walk away from the computer? "Oh I just posted that link because I saw a mod online in users online." And What about people getting mad because they don't qualify as trusted?
