ALL MEMBERS READ - HYPERLINKS

[sport_billy]

Due to the Online Safety Act, the forum is having to ensure all hyperlinks to websites are checked before the post is approved.
This will effect links to our own website also due to how it is implemented. So please bear with the Moderator team at times.

Sorry for this inconvenience caused. We are still getting our heads around the new law and implementing measures to mitigate falling foul of any nefarious or malicious action.

You have my full support with this, thank you for the amazing work you do

Couldn't have said it better...

 

[Roselina]

Me too thank you

Thanks for the info. Does it mean that hyperlinks will have to be approved by mods/admins, so won't appear immediately with a new post?

In most cases yes, it is set to kick in below a certain post count

Thanks, that's useful to know. Yet more work for the staff due to the OSA...

Yes, we are playing it as safe as possible on things like this

Plus I'm too old and saggy to be plying my wares to pay for any large fine!

This is a good move.
It is much better to be over strict and cautious than take risks.
It’s a good idea to make our safety features so strict that anyone with malicious intent goes away to search for easier targets.
