How do I post a video here? I tried to embed stuff but it doesn't work. I thought I could just copy and paste the code, but what gives?

For YouTube, just make a [ youtube ] tag and put the video's ID inside it. So for http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=lrNp3KwpCQY, the code would be lrNp3KwpCQY. If it's not YouTube, tough. :P You can't insert arbritary HTML tags because that opens up a huge can of security worms.

Cute Monkeys ? seriously ? wtf ?

The no HTML think has been a standard for quite some time now, it's actually quite difficult to turn off in most of the software these days, for your own good I guess.

I actually understand the issues now to the extent that I hacked a site a couple of days ago and gained access to the manager's e-mail account. They told me to try and hack it though so that was okay. :P
