I’d like to know what causes the “bad link” error, when I post a link in the forums and try to get there? It also happens with links posted by other users, most of them are links to skillbuilders. I use Safari and Firefox and it happens with both.

I usually see that when I’m testing a link from my post preview and I forgot the http prefix. For example, (url)somesite(/url) instead of (url)http://somesite (/url).

I mangled the syntax a bit so the url tags wouldn’t be parsed.
