    Videos playing automatically?

    Anyone else having this issue? When I open a thread - any videos posted start playing automatically without me clicking "play."

    It was fun while it lasted...

                  Glad I could amuse you with my ignorance Hoff!

                  I still haven't figured out how to post a gif. Is it a picture, link, video, or cut & pasted in? Thanks to Illuminate telling someone else, I know how to post a soundcloud now. At least I don't have videos automatically playing. lol

                    Its technically an image so you can post it just like you would any other pic

                      Thanks go0gle! (I thought the last time I tried that it ended up just being a picture. But, I'll try again sometime.)

                      btw, I use Firefox, no issues either.

                        @Zover - I'm using Chrome - because I use Chromecast.
