So I’m not sure what is going on, but youtube videos on the forums don’t appear to be embedded when you link them in posts anymore. This is happening for multiple people, both for older posts and newer ones you make. They appear as a still image that you have to click to load the youtube page on its own page. Oddly enough, some posts still have embedded youtube videos still working.
I’m not sure if this is an intentional change or not, and I’m hoping it’s just a bug that will get fixed. Until it is fixed, I’ll have to remember to mention a link I post is a youtube video and to click the still image to see videos.
On another note, I finally was able to get some time to work on a new Ogre megathread, so if you’re interested in supporting playable Horde Ogres, specifically the Stonemaul Clan, you can see the thread here:
Now, on a Saurok related note, you may have noticed on the bottom of the first page of this post and the Ogre megathread post, at the time I’m posting this, mentioning an official Ogre/Saurok Partnership coming in the near future.
I’ve mentioned before that I’ve been wanting to look into different avenues of showing off support for Ogres and Saurok on the Horde, and since I’m spearheading support for both now, I’m in the process of planning out something along those lines. It won’t be anything grandiose or ground-breaking, but more like taking baby steps into the next direction and seeing how it goes. When I have something more concrete, I’ll be sure to mention it in both megathreads.
So maintaining two megathreads is going to be a lot of work, but I intend to give it my all for both of them. It’s something I’d only do for my most wanted races, and for Ogres and Saurok, it’s something I’m very much willing to do. They’ve been my most wanted playable races, and while my work won’t guarantee they’ll become playable, I think it’s worth a shot and also good to show off support of some kind instead of silently hoping.
As always, more Saurok research and support to continue in the future!
