Please make You Tube videos embedding possible again.
and absolutely +1 for mr_dja's idea of a "go to first unread post" option in each thread.

The site is the so easy to operate and get around in - unlike many others.

The first page looks like a data sheet from 1985. But I don't know whether that's a bad thing or not?

Welcoming back long time posters who were banned. Some people posted on here for years and then got banned because of one or two posts. They should be welcomed back.

Well, in a world filled with bright, loud colors, it's nice to have something soothing to look at.
Also, to back up what an earlier poster said, can there be a bit more... openness to the banned? Like maybe set up a trial by jury to decide when someone should be banned. (ok, so I'm kidding but maybe it's not such a bad idea??) Or at least like, when clicking on a banned person's name, instead of seeing
This user doesn't exist or has been deactivated.
Maybe a log of why they've left the website?

Or at least a kinder sounding message. That one is especially traumatic to the people who have been banned, I speak with some experience on this issue.
Perhaps something like "Posting privileges have been suspended". Of course they still exist!

I'm surprised so many people are commenting on the video embedding feature. Just like before when the "s" is removed from the URL the video does embed. It's a matter of changing your browser settings to be able to view them. I'd say that's a pretty minor trade off for having the additional security and choice to view unsafe content or not.
I think having the ability to post pictures in a thread without the need to link to an URL would be nice, I know it would take up more server space but it would certainly be easier and prevent the loss of so many pictures when the original link goes bad. Memory is cheap, the loss of classic Stones content frustrating.

Also eliminate those annoying moniker messages or whatever they are called, that people use as quotes from songs.

I hope that you don't introduce either private messages or content which is only available to registered users - both of these give the feeling of a closed clique where much of the real life of the site is invisible to "outsiders". iorr feels like a public service rather than a private club, and I like it that way.

Ditto for me. I also agree with embedding youtube vids again. I disagree about an off topic section. One of the charms of IORR Tell Me is that you never know what you're going to find here, and I don't really like segregating conversations or having to float around to other sections. Also, like buttons always seem so immpersonal to me, again I like seeing encouraging comments and if there's nothing to be added, the thumbs up works well.
Thanks for asking, Bjornulf.

If you can't make another area for OT threads, why not ban them altogether?
Apart from music-related topics, I can't see any reason for discussing anything other than the Rolling Stones on a site for hardcore Stones fans.
