If they don't make a link big enough or noticeable enough its their own damn fault if no one looks at the link.

Right on BC. If someone 'hides' a link like Tuberski it isn't helpful, but the fault is with the poster. And it still only took me like 1.2 seconds to determine where the link was in Tuberski's post.

He didn't hide the link very well. In MoO colours its sticks out nice and bright.

Yeah, took me a minute to realise what he was trying to acheive by making the text invisible and the link easy to see...

The real bastards are the people who use smilies as links.

You mean like in his sig? Where each letter is a different hyperlink.

Nobody notices my sig. Doesn't the space between the two words make you think more than one link? Does nobody even hang a mouse over them to see where they point to?

What a waste of frikking time that was.

Although I suppose it proves that sig links are pointless, and that it wasn't afterall worth making the entire second (and optional third) lines into one-letter hyperlinks that proved the sentence wrong.

Actually that was the point: It doesn't look like normal text... It was actually an eye catcher...

Tube, the link color isn't the same as "darkblue" and I can tell the subtle difference when they're side by side like that.

(And yes, I noticed IW's multilink sig long ago and even followed the links one night when I was really bored. They didn't help. )
