Omnius

I understand the reasons behind the changes but to be honest it really reduces the usefulness of this site for me. I'm on East Coast US time so most of the interesting stuff on RLC tends to happen while I'm sleeping, with rare exceptions. I came here for the most part to see what I missed. With that functionality gone there really isn't a reason to visit as much. I'll probably pop in once in a while to see what the "new site" will be like, but it may not be a daily thing as it has been in the past depending on what happens.

Which is why this site has a gallery for posting videos. Why these guys don't use it is beyond me, unless they get $$ from these other sites which just makes them greedy. 

There have been fairly straightforward and detailed tutorials posted in various fora here describing how to convert video files to a universally playable format. There have also been a couple of moderators who have taken it upon themselves to convert videos posted by those who (I'll be nice) haven't seen the tutorials. If there are some you can't view, wait a bit and perhaps it will show up converted later.
