It is common to see links in the forum posts but I do not see any in the album reviews. Is there a reason for that?
Especially for rare albums it might be useful to be able to address readers directly to YouTube clips of that album, to MySpace sites were the album can be heard or maybe free downloaded, etc.
I have noticed that the script protocol of the reviews changes some of the written characters and this might be a reason why a pasted link might not work if some of its characters are changed.
 
Can somebody enlighten me on this one?
 
TX !

For security reasons, hyperlinks cannot be posted in reviews. You can however post website addresses by dropping the http at the start.

What? The reviews seem to be as well watched as posts on the forum, how much damage could a malicious link really do? Especially since somebody's not going to sneak a trojan into their 10,000 word opus on Close To The Edge.
