What exactly do you mean? I know we can create communities on PS4 and Steam (Not sure about XB1) where people could see what others are playing and maybe join them, that could've a decent start in the gaming front at least.

Something like that, or like embedding twitch feeds into the website I mean. So like if guys are playing NHL or something others can see and maybe hop in etc... Like give people more reasons instead of just login and do PTs and log out, keep give them reasons to hang out on the website.

Maybe something like that, but embedded streams around maybe something on the side bar showing whos streaming or something like. Like an advertisement sidebar type embed.

Maybe a video game forum similar to the GFX forums? Have sub forums for discussion, streams, videos, etc. Can twitch actually be embedded on this site? I've never specifically tried. Edit: I tested, youtube embeds automatically but twitch does not. Is there perhaps a way to add twitch embedding? Also, a potential issue even if we can, would twitch chat go with it? I guess you could pop out the chat and then bring it over to the VHL but still. Interaction would be the key here and if the streamer needs to keep refreshing the VHL it would make interaction kinda tricky.

The last list of embeddable sites I saw was this: Here is a full list of external websites that support such embedding: College Humor, Facebook, Flickr, Gfycat, Google+, Hulu, Instagram, SoundCloud, Spotify, Ted, Twitter, Vimeo, Vine, YouTube, and internal links to content within the community. But I feel like there HAS to be a way to embed twitch streams. I'll try to figure it out next time I do a live sim.

But I feel like there HAS to be a way to embed twitch streams. I'll try to figure it out next time I do a live sim. Twitch has an embedding code for both the player and the chat so it SHOULD be possible so long as we can use code. I don't think it works though, case in point: <iframe src="https://player.twitch.tv/?channel=supermcgamer" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" height="378" width="620"></iframe><a href="https://www.twitch.tv/supermcgamer?tt_medium=live_embed&tt_content=text_link" style="padding:2px 0px 4px; display:block; width:345px; font-weight:normal; font-size:10px;text-decoration:underline;">Watch live video from SuperMCGamer on www.twitch.tv</a> Clearly that's not what we want but it is the embedding code. Is there someway to allow that code to be posted properly?

Commissioner Beketov 9,025 Posted June 20, 2016 Commissioner Share Posted June 20, 2016 There we go. If we had those posted next to each other (or at least one on top of the other) we could completely do this. Again, I don't know how many people would be interested but it's definitely a thing that's possible.

I've had reservations about it because when you turn it on you get a big flashing popup that says it's a security risk but I feel like it's likely safe to do so in a small sim league community if people are interested.

Yeah, it has always done that, even back in the IF days; not sure how much damage could actually be done with it though. Maybe if we were really worried we could make a group called like "VHL Streamer" or something and only turn it on for them. Would at least allow you to control who can and cannot do it on a member by member basis.
