I thought it would be interesting to have a video/audio response option for reply posts. I don't know how well received that would be here, but since most of us already talk to each other via mic, we should have the ability to post audible responses, and or videos. The only problem being we'd have to watch/listen to people sometimes instead of reading what they say, which might be annoying to some.
How it could help?
Well, people tend to get angrier and more upset on a forum, due to the lack of emotion and all that good stuff that comes with vocals and visuals. So people sometimes assume things incorrectly and just, things get out of hand, sarcasm is harder, and misinterpretations happen all too much. Sure we could just post youtube videos but not everybody would want to make responses from youtube, and most people don't have webcams either I'm sure. So the ability to post an accompanying audio recording, or whatever would be neat. I think.
Also, some people speak, better than they type.
I can see it being impractical but practical too, so idunno. I doubt many would use it, but I can see it being fun, and I would use it if we got something like that added to the forum. I'm sure it'd make my responses more interesting.. maybe. That way if you just hate what I'm saying you can make fun of my hair, or like, my face.
JUST A THOUGHT.

You could put a video on youtube and use a youtube tag and reply.

I'm asking if there's such thing as a forum specific thingy ma jig, kind of like the record audio option on MSN, to send (short 20 second, or long 15 minute) audio clips in stead of typing things. The idea of uploading hundreds of CG specific videos to youtube doesn't appeal to me, and you have a limit on how long they could be, and all these other things. Just a small feature to record audio/video, and the choice to listen to it or not when reading a post.
Don't expect to happen, just curious on the idea, I guess.

Youtube takes forever to upload, It's not worth my time, I wouldn't use youtube.

Not to mention it would be 100% easier to have it on here, have it be quick and easy. The whole process of going through another site just makes the idea pointless, hence why I nor no-one else does it.

I don't see why not at least run a trial unless it is complicated to get it working (which I doubt)

Hmm. Bandwidth? If you notice, forums are set up to use others' bandwidth, and not the forum host's. Thus the link thru for videos and pictures.
This way, the forum host has minimal bandwidth costs, and passes the savings onto their wallets, erm... I mean to the customers, the customers.
Hosting such would be high bandwidth usage, and high storage cost, too.
So. How would we do it?
-
Have an external website, and have them link thru the site, so we press a button here, start recording, it gets done on another sites bandwidth, or whatever, IT SOUNDS POSSIBLISH, anyway yep. The main point being we can do it here, and have it be simple. and quick. idunno.
