-wise on TWW

I don't really run across too many threads where sound is embedded, and I personally have stopped auto embedding things on TWW that have sound and autoplay because I know it pisses people off

so I thought it would be an interesting idea to add a feature that shuts off all sound

for instance, if I am playing some soft music that requires turning the speakers up as I am doing right now, and I run across a thread that blows my ears off, I might die of shock LOL

i'm not sure i usually just keep my system muted at work but it seems like you should be able to turn off / disable embedded content in one of the settings tabs

use the mute button when you don't want sound, turn it off when you do want sound

download a flash blocker for FF
you can use that to block autoplay embeds too





I mean, that's what we all did when you were being a prick a while ago with your autoplay.
And everyone was saying "cut that shit out. I'm trying to chill to music...not listen to your ish"
And your response was "I ENJOY SUCKING OFF HORSES, SO I'LL DO WHAT I WANT"

remember that?
