hyperlinks in titles are not good!

Just came over to the forum and without thinking clicked the top thread which took me to this onagofly site. Wha!? Oh yeah you dummy, there's a link in the title from a spammer. Can we do something about links and isn't there something we can do about moderating first time posters?

P.S. A moment later and the post is deleted, but....

    Which one was that? I wanted to see what manual that person wanted, then the forum tells its gone. (The message threading.)

    No manual was being requested. It was just a spammer, and I deleted it minutes after it was posted. That's what Moderators do. :)

    Good to know. By the way? What's with one of erco's robots in your den watching TV? His friends will be calling for him soon. They bought a plane and are flying it out of the country.

    Hmm. Now I'm curious. How do you insert a link into a title? This could come in handy! :)

    No, I'm not serious. 'Just wondering how it was done. And yes, it should definitely not be possible.
