If we're wishing, how about you get a penny and I get a tenner.

Here you are:

Couldn't fit many of them in my bank account.

See the BBCode formatting used for this link.
At the moment it's just easier to paste a URL as-is: http://www.wrongplanet.net/postp4459683.html#4459683

Even the underlines help. But I've seen clickable links inserted into posts without any formatting at all, and now I'm wondering how they're doing that.

Sounds like our work's database. The fun game with upgrades there is to guess what they've stopped working.

The only ways I know are fiddling with BBCode or just pasting the literal URL - that full link above is clickable, in case you hadn't tried.

The best option at the moment is to start a new thread in Random or Members Only.
At least that would get something going...

There was this animal and pets thread a few months ago, but I think it died. Resticky it maybe?

If you just post a link it appears as a link with its own underlining and all.
If you click on insert url it appears as normal text unless you change it

You have got to be KIDDING ME with these noisy ads on every page.

Yeah because that's exactly what an autistic person needs, sudden noise out of nowhere making you want to throw the computer at the wall.

Oh wow, f**k this. No way in hell can I continue to browse this site. Feminazi mod garbage is bad enough, but you cannot be serious with these ads.

It is entirely possible that these ads are nothing to do with WP. You might want to run some checks on your computer to look for malware throwing these things up. Good luck - they can hide very successfully, and sometimes sneak under the radar of your standard antivirus software.

I recall some software called AdAware that helped out a bit with that. It tends to identify tracking cookies as "bad" but I wouldn't worry about those too much - some of them remember your passwords and things for many sites and deleting them is inconvenient.
