Joe installed new hack that makes autolinks. it will take a while for us to get used to it, but it should help to reduce the amount of stupid question.

it might help with the n00Bs, but i don't like reading through text and oh, there's a link... this is why i use firefox with the adblock extension...

I think it's a nice touch. I think you guys can sacrifice reading different colored words that are underlined for a lessened number of stupid questions and newb bashing. Hey, if you mods need any words that should be hyperlinked, start up a thread...I have a feeling some of us would be more than happy to contribute.

problem is the noob won't see the link until after they've asked the stupid question...

well, coming from someone that has "computer eyes", it's bad for reading...

$20 says it won't help one bit
