Solution to the external linking issue.

[cbk1994]

I do think it's extremely silly that links are only allowed in The Lounge. I guess your idea could work, but really, like Tig said, it is more a deal with advertising other things than malicious software (as forums, to my knowledge, can't be held responsible for people who post and link to sites with malicious software, so long as they respond and delete it).

So long as we don't advertise anything about other games, why can't we be allowed to post links (e.g. a link to a news article about the Kentucky Derby -- just an example)
