Linked words

I was just wondering if there is a way to turn off the automatic links that pop up when certain words are written in posts, for example:

tutorials, mut, tony

I personally just kinda find them annoying.

On the same note, is it really necessary to have those links? I remember being really confused by it when I had less than 10 posts, because many of the common words we used in here are linked, and made posts difficult to read. I could understand why new people would easily be turned off to the forum. I just remember it sucked reading " Hi welcome to YOU MUST HAVE 10 POSTS TO SEE LINKS " LOL!

Just a friendly suggestion

Re: Linked words

Not at this time. It's a way to assist new users in autolinking. The double underlined ones are advertising. Please visit them if you feel you are interested.

This was removed earlier this month.
