If I can remember them...
Table names should be defined in the constants file.
Label or highlight items with discussion.
Link to thread instead of item, if appropriate.

Is it possible to remove the boldness from the names of mod/admin users? They're fine at thread level, but anything higher and the orange and green is a bit garish.

We plebeians don't appear to be able to add a reason for editing our posts, unless I am missing something.

Would it be possible to get media tag support for Giant Bomb and Tested.com?
If it helps, here's an example embed codez for a Giant Bomb video:
I also notice that the video passes an ID of 460, so there may still be hope, if the player is clever enough to fetch the data it needs from that alone, but if it were that clever it wouldn't need the rest.
However! If you're willing to wrangle with the code yourself, the board currently support embedding Flash.

Yeah no worry I figured as soon as I pasted the embed code. I don't understand why the code is so convoluted.

Strangely that video won't let me skip forward, just starts the video from the beginning wherever the slider is. Just pointing it out.

Hmm. I can seek to parts that the video has preloaded, although that often defeats the object. I'll look in to that too.
I think The Escapist uses the same player, so there might be some useful stuff hidden in their embed script.

GB/Tested have both streaming & progressive download. The streaming one will let you seek through the clip, while the progressive one can only play the part of the video it has downloaded up to that point. Progressive download is good if you want to let a video load up for a bit as you're downloading the entire file overall, not just streaming it.
I wonder if the codez are different for both, as I am pretty sure I go with streaming all the time, but I'll double check.

Just to let you know, two small things:
1) Thee spoiler button is not capitalised. Eion would be foaming at the mouth if he was still with us.
2) The spoiler button actually places media tags down rather than spoiler tags

I'm not sure I can change the title separately without voiding the old uses of the tag... although I might be able to fudge it with CSS.
The wrong tag issue suggests the number of hard-coded bbcodes is set wrongly somewhere, which is odd because nothing at all should work then. It might be fixed as a result of the board update though, so I'll look in to it.
