While we're very happy to have you in the Gulch and appreciate your wanting to fully engage, some things in the Gulch (e.g. voting, links in comments) are a
privilege, not a right. To get you up to speed as quickly as possible, we've provided two options for earning these privileges.
- You must reach a Gulch score of 10. You can earn points in the Gulch by posting content, commenting, or by other members voting up your posts.
- You may upgrade to a Galt's Gulch Producer membership to immediately gain these privileges.
Your current Gulch score:
Keep in mind almost all of such idiots would never feel impressed by Ayn Rand and find their way into the Gulch as I did pretty well recently.

I don't care to start this as a discussion, though.
Just a test.
That admin you mentioned has good taste. Ha! Ha!
1) The link you pasted into the Ask The Gulch box was hand-edited after you made the post. This was not and is not an automatic function of the site software. Rather, it was an admin going in and editing your post.
2) Can you give me more information about not being able to create a post with a link? Can you actually paste into the link box, but not submit the post (you would get a duplicate link error), or can you not actually paste into the link box?
The first day I tried that with a different link and just gave up. It wasn't all that great and now I forget what it was.
On the second day I became frustrated over my that same day "Zero Tolerance" find. I used the Ask The Gulch box to ask what was going on. Doing so, I found I could paste the link in that spot.
Shortly thereafter to my surprise, that link somehow created a full blown post everyone started to read.
I've used Ask The Gulch before. A couple of months or more ago, "Reply" was terribly slow about placing one of those on a post.
I complained about it, I received a private response and it was fixed about two days later.
Are you saying that you tried to create a regular post but you could not post a link in the URL box?

Zero Tolerance = Zero Common Sense
Zero Sum Gain because they are all a bunch of losers
X+Y=Zero
Maybe just call them the Zero's?
Then it's accomplished by rule of men.
but was unable to anywhere else as I have done countless times before.
I was quite surprised to see a question meant for the head honchos being posted for all to read.
Oh, well, if someone does not want old dino to post with a link, I've stumbled on a way around that.
I am dino.
Hear me roar!
May as well pass around a +1 to all y'all.
I agree with on everything including discretion. We should be careful not to go too far down the path of relying on human beings' good judgment in not going berserk. We need rules that don't make over-reacting even an option.
