This forum, the "YouTube Dump" is a place where you can share all of those absolutely crazy wacky and zany videos of Asian people singing songs badly or of Trapezoid's Potter Puppet Pals nonsense.

However if you've got a random video to share from Metacafe, Google Video, or another service you can post it here as well.

Here are some suggested guidelines for the use of this forum:
1. Like all other forums here on GatorAIDS, all rules still apply. Especially the NSFW ones. Even if the video shows nothing graphic, if it contains questionable content that you shouldn't view at work/school/family please note it as such.

2. Don't just post a video and be done with it. If you're sharing a video give some insight or commentary as to what the video is about and why you're sharing it that way people can not only decide if they want to sit through a 6 minute video of a fat kid stuck in a Walmart scooter, but also have a discussion topic as well.

3. You can share your own videos in here if you like, but if you're doing comedy routines or other wacky stuff maybe you'd be better off posting in the Viewer-Made Content forum?

We have YouTube tags now. Here is how they are used.



1. Click the YouTube button in the reply box on the forums.

2. Paste ONLY the video ID between the tags. If you paste all of the URL it's not going to work.

3. Click Submit. If you did it right you should see this in your post.
