Limits on hyperlinks

[HGervais]

Is it just a bug that needs to be worked out or is there a reason we can only use 1 link per post?

For now, it's intentional. We can limit the number of links in a post. There's a couple reasons I set it low. One is to reduce spam. Another is to spread conversation around. Yet another is to improve the signal-to-noise ratio. I can increase it later if there's an overwhelming demand.

I really wish you would increase them Mike. I post multiple movies release news items and it would be very helpful if I could link to imbd.com so people can do their own research in as quick & easy a process as possible.

I should think upping to two would be fine for now. Setting it higher is like cranking the thermostat to a hundred degrees when you're cold. Let's see how we do with two.

How about a compromise of two and a half, with an addendum that the second half (or first if you want to put the second half up) allowed to be mentioned but not actually linked. A third can be hinted at, but must be very obscure.No invisotext is allowed unless rendered invisible.

I can see it now... following some half link from The Jury Room and winding up in a shady back alley of the Internet, never to be seen or heard from again.
