Title: Youtube is down
Post by: mickster04 on October 17, 2018, 02:29:55 AM
It probably won't last long but anyone trying to watch youtube videos on the forum will see an error with a little monkey picture and messaging something like
QuoteSorry, something went wrong.

A team of highly trained monkeys has been dispatched to deal with this situation.

If you see them, send them this information as text (screenshots frighten them):

It's not the forum!

Fine here too. Maybe just a one-off short-lived glitch?

I have just looked at the Guardian article referred to by @railsquid (http://www.ngaugeforum.co.uk/SMFN/index.php?action=profile;u=3832) - I like the caption under the picture -
"YouTube users complained they could access the video website or other YouTube services." (My italics).  :)
