posting a URL is not a hyperlink, as it isn't clickable

the rs forums don't support hyperlinks to websites outside of runescape.com, and as such there is no contradiction

Ah perfect! It seems I misunderstood the term 'hyperlink'.

So there is no contradiction.

As such, as Mod Poerkie has stated, one is able to presently follow both the T&C and Code of Conduct. LGBT

Original message details are unavailable.
Players should refrain from actively advertising in any of our games or forums. This includes advertising any website

Thanks for pointing out that no URLs are permitted to be posted in the forums.

Perhaps the CoC could tweak the wording. I understood 'link' to have the same meaning as 'URL' with the knowledge that hyperlinks to external websites are not feasible on the RSOF.

Until both you and MIU cleared things up, I would've based my understanding of the CoC off that perception. I wonder how many forum users think the same way. LGBT
