This will probably be the new trends following sig restrictions.

If you think of it that's a good point. It's a bit weird to allow newbies to post external links.

These guys can post links to viruses, referral links, phishing links and various malware that can damage your computer or even steal your credentials to BCT, wallets etc.

It's the thread where our replies to his spam (along with his spam) got deleted @Jet Cash if you remember?

But it does seem like a good idea to disallow newbies to post links (especially when you can accidentally click them when using a trackpad or touchscreen computer). They can easily use something like www[dot]bitcointalk[dot]org or www . bitcointalk . org if they have something useful to share but otherwise it's probably best to disable links (to cut down on phishing attempts and ref link stuff).
