No; that would be the live cam of the Trojan Room coffee pot at the University of Cambridge. The camera was set up in 1991 and migrated from the internal lab network to the web in 1993.

Not sure if real post or suspicious 🤔 

Totes suspicious - both of them.

The post being replied to is from someone promoting a paid service and who had two posts ever.

Then the reply promotes a different paid service and is from someone with only a single post ever.

It's been a while since I last checked, but I remember not being able to post videos here.

There's no restriction to doing videos of the game.

But polite society says they should at least be good.

The prohibition was lifted 14 months before your account was created.

 

The thread you dredged up specifies in the second post that there's no longer a restriction.

Here is another piece of info regarding videos and streaming of CoH

Is there some odd rule this thread needs to be revisited every 8-9 months?   I know a few vampire that like to sleep 40-60 years at a time then hop up and study the changes.  Is this similar?

Whether the person is new or veteran, always an opportunity for positive community engagement and sharing the link to the policy/terms on the topic. 

 

As for the people that ask, I think it is just CYA or assurance that if you broadcasted 30 seconds of a costume contest you don't get banned or contribute to COH going away again.   

On a similar but different topic that repeats, I am certain at any moment there is a going to be a post for "how can I get my characters back from Live servers?"

"Why did my character get gen'd?!2?!?1!eleventy-eleven!!11!??2!12?" comes around far more frequently.

I believe the first was the Cambridge Coffee Cam https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trojan_Room_coffee_pot.

 

(Disclaimer: I used to work on the Internet in ancient days, but I never spent work time and bandwidth watching coffee or Jenni. Nuh uh.)

Ah, ya beat me to it!

Only by about 2 and a half years, though!

 

I miss the days when the Internet was not allowed to be used for direct profit!

Dancing hamsters, however, were completely acceptable.  😉

The first rule of YouTube on the forums is that we never talk about YouTube on the forums.

Give you up: Never.

Let you down: Never.

Run away and desert you: Never.

 

You've been Rikti rolled!

Now just because you can post YouTube videos doesn't mean you should.  Exercise restraint.  Content and good content are two drastically different things.
